The Firestone Indy 500 Firehawk is an excellent tire. I've been running them on the Cobra for over a year now. Fantastic dry traction and really good wet traction. Would not even think about trying them in the snow, tread design is horrible for snow. They have decent traction on subfreezing pavement given they are a summer tire. Very manageable till they get some heat in them, once warm they perform great on cold pavement.

The only complaint I have with them is the rear tires tend squeal when fighting for grip. Haven't heard any noise when corning hard just from the rear if you give it a little too much throttle.
