I have a set of Firestone Firehawk SZ50 (225-60- ZR15) on the car now, absoultely love them. Treadwear 220, Traction AA, Temp A. Best tire I ever ran in rain or dry. However they are getting a little long in the tooth, age wise, no hairline cracks yet but 2 of them are aproaching 9 years. And the tire people told me that 10 years is the upper limit for any tire. I have stock suspension and the Factory 10 hole wheels. Do not want to go bigger wheel. I would like another set however it appears that they don't make anymore. Looking for new tire recommendations please.
