Firestone MULTIHAWK - User reviews

For eleven years I've been using Firestone tyres - the F580, the F590, and now the Firestone Multihawk, always in the same car - the VW Polo. I use them all year round and there certainly are better tyres for summer. I mean, quieter, more comfortable, etc. For summer tyres, they do really great in winter - ther have never let me down. I went for a vacation to the mountains on the F580. For the whole period my snow chains remained in the trunk. The F580 had one drawback - they had a tendency to get bulges on the sidewall after 3-5 years. The F590 didn't have this defect, but it seems that tread was a bit worse than the F580 in winter especially on slush. The Firestone Multihawk combines the positive features of these two models, the F590 carcass and a tread which is similar to the one of F580. They seem to be more comfortable, softer and quieter than the older models. I can't assess driving on snow yet, since I'm before the season, but I have good expoectations after preliminary tests. My opinion concerns the size of 155, It is possible that the wider ones, such as 165 and 175 are worse in winter and opinions can be worse and different from mine. The rule is that the winter tyres should be narrow to provide better downforce and grip. When it comes to summer conditions - they are very good, they keep perfect grip in the corners on wet and dry surface. Only a bit louder above 55 MPH, but the advantages outstand it.

Starting from the comfort of aesthetics - good tyres for a good price. abrasion on 6-Ke. After 5000 km I heard "oh, you've got new tyres!"

So far, I'm very pleasantly surprised. In comparison to the previously held the tyres Debica Passio leap a few meshes. In the wet very good handling on dry is even better. Unfortunately, the dry above 80 km / h present themselves.
