High performance all season tires have started popping up on the tire market recently. They combine excellent all weather traction with high speed durability to give your performance vehicle a year round performing capability. This ensures that such vehicles are able to perform at their greatest capability in various conditions.
The Firestone Firehawk AS is one such tire. Here at Priority Tire we offer this model for sale in various sizes, guaranteeing that you will find the tire you need for your vehicle. This model promotes exceptional all weather road grip, high speed controllability and a comfortable driving experience. Furthermore, the tire comes with a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty.
Longer-Lasting Tread Life
The length of the tire’s usability depends on its tread life. The longer the life of the tread area lasts, the longer the tire can be used. Manufacturers use various technologies and methods to upgrade the length of the tread life during the model’s performance.
The Firehawk AS combines its tread pattern and durable compound to extend its service life. The tread design’s flat footprint and detailed pattern allows the tire to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the entire tread area. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, cornering and braking prevents uneven tread wear formations. On the other hand, the special L. L. Carbon compound strengthens the rubber materials by creating an elemental chain on a molecular level. This guarantees the tire’s exceptionally long tread life which ensures the tire’s longer usability.
As a result, the tire was given a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty, provided by the manufacturer.
All Weather Performance
Dry, wet and winter weather do not cause problems for all season tires. They are capable of handling all weather situations with ease. The tire’s tread design and all season compound work together to boost the tire’s grip throughout the year.
The Firehawk AS was designed with a detailed asymmetric pattern that improves its grip on the road surface. The high-density siping design and groove placement work together with the durable compound to boost the all weather traction. These tread elements increase the number of biting edges gripping the road surface to enhance the year round performing ability. The L. L. Carbon’s molecular chain helps maintain the rubber flexibility and keep the tire pliable in various conditions. This combination ensures the tire’s excellent driving safety.
The tread design’s numerous lateral and circumferential grooves manage to effectively prevent hydroplaning. They disperse water and slush from below the footprint to maintain the tire’s road contact at all times. Hydroplaning happens when water and slush located on the road cut off the tire’s contact with the surface. This causes the vehicle to skid and the driver to lose control. The groove pattern, in wet and winter conditions, channels water and slush from below the footprint and avoids hydroplaning.
High Speed Performance and Controllability
High performance tires need to have two things: high speed durability and excellent controllability. Without those, the high speed performance will become too dangerous. High speed tires must be able to handle the high speed pressure and boost their steering responsiveness and driving stability.
The asymmetric tread design manages to keep the tire’s constant road contact at all times. This allows the tire to upgrade the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In this manner, the better and constant surface contact boosts the steering responsiveness and accuracy to the driver’s commands, while it secures the structural stability during the performance. The optimal shoulder pattern increases the number of biting edges gripping the road surface throughout the year, which enhances the cornering and maneuvering capability.
The L. L. Carbon’s durability ensures the high speed durability of the Firehawk AS. The stronger compound prevents heat build-up along the tread area during the high speed performance. The tire also maintains its ideal shape under the high speed pressure thanks to the high-tensile steel belt construction. The tire does not deform under the pressure, which further boosts its high speed durability. As a result, the tire can safely perform at its best high speed ability.
High Driving Comfort Levels
Road vibrations felt while the tires are in motion can ruin the driving enjoyment of anyone in the vehicle’s cabin. The tire’s internal structure plays a large role in lowering the vibrations felt during the drive.
The Firehawk AS was designed and manufactured with a reinforced high-tensile steel belt construction which keeps the optimal tire shape under the high speed pressure. The ideal tire shape enables the tire to closely follows the road surface at all times, which allows the model to absorb the shock of driving. This significantly decreases the road vibrations felt in the vehicle’s cabin during the tire’s performance, guaranteeing a comfortable and enjoyable driving experience.
