Summer tires for daily driver?

[VinnAY]

Firehawk Indy 500 seem to be the hot ticket lately, the budget ticket anyway.

Have any reviews on them? I'm seriously planning on getting them in the near future...fairly inexpensive and most likely better than pirellis (in price and performance).

Tirerack had great things to say about them, as do reviews on their site, and several members on here. I'm pretty much set on getting them when my current ones are done.

I just bit the bullet and had some Michelin Pilot Supersports ordered in, I should be getting them in by next monday or tuesday. Can't tell you how good they are yet, but they have to be better than the damn summer Pirellis.

Why not just go with 275 35 20 and 305 35 20 NT555 G2s? I'm running the same setup lowered on Steeda Progressives and the fitment is perfect! The tires are pretty solid too, especially if you're just running them on the street.

That looks perfect. NT555R in the rear? Is that factory alignment specs? And have you noticed any rubbing whatsoever?

It shouldn't rub as it sticks out about 21mm compared to the PP wheels and everybody puts 25mm spacers on those. Still curious tho.

No the backs are G2s and I have no rubbing issues whatsoever. I did get an alignment before those pics and everything was within ford spec.

I spoke with Aleksi (sp?) over the phone and he assured me factory spec alignment with the setup I want it is 150% impossible to rub even with my 1" springs, guaranteed. Unless of course my front is turned like 30 degrees and I hit something huge but a that point any wheel will rub..

Put in a deposit for a set in satin graphite wrapped in nt555 :cheers:
