Getting new tires... should i keep my Firehawk wide ovals?
I bought my 3rd gen about 5 months ago and the the rear tires were brand new and the fronts had about 50% tred left. Now the front tires are bald and the rear ones are just fine. The tires are Firestone Firehawk wide ovals and the guy that i bought the car from said that the tires are z-rated... but i dont know how to tell and the firestone website only has W-rated firehawks for sale. Anyways... should i buy 2 more Firehawk wide ovals or what do yall recomend and why? Also this is my daily Driver. Thank you, -Austin

I never replace just one or 2 tires. I'm wierd like that. I like my tires the same age. I'm not sure about them being Z rated...I had firehawk indy 500's on my old bird and they weren't z rated. I'd say buy a whole new set and keep the 2 good ones around incase you get a flat or something. and for a daily driver I'd go with the indy 500's their a year round tire.
