Tire Advice

TylerMcCraw · 04-23-2018, 10:17 PM

Should I get the Hankook Ventus V12 or the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500, Any advice would be great. These are for my stock wheels, Not my Dinan setup which I run Michelin PS4S, Looking for something cheaper for the OEM wheels (600$)

I'd go with the Indy 500s over the Ventus V12s

I’m on my second set of Indy 500’s. They’ve been great even on the track, I’ve been really impressed considering they’re priced as a budget tire. I believe they’re $550 a set on tire rack for OEM 19” sizes.

That is what I am running next.

Can't beat the value on these and the steering response is supposed to be really great. Anything to help steering on the F30.

I've run indy's on a few cars. Never a problem. Got very long mileage too. Thats what I would go for.
