Firestone Indy 500
#1
I just put these tires (265/70/16) on my truck and they look awsome. I read the surveys about them on tire rack and the sounded good. I know it's to late, but is there any thing I need to be aware of that tire rack didn't say.
Drove (65mph) to work in heavy rain this morning in standing water and no hydroplaning, good so far now all i need is snow. Other than that they made to truck look 10x better. Hopefully I'll have pics soon.

I've got them on my truck. The only thing I noticed with them, that was different than the stock generals, was that when cornering hard with drop shackles on, I could feel the truck move on the tires(the sidewalls flexing to the side). Other than that I have been very happy.

here is a pic of the truck befre and after shackles. Not much of a difference, but I like stealth.

I think the firehawks are good truck ties.... but you are right, they are not built for good cornering but you are right, they do look good.
