I like them alot.They are alot better than the stock Goodyears that were on it.Don't expect to hear any tire screeching when you get on it though,they make a sticky kinda sound when they break loose.

I guess I don't have to worry about that since I don't get on my v6 (it won't go anywhere if I do). You have any more shots of your stang?

Default more pics

Firehawks this size are hard to find. www.tiresavings.com has them - special order though (don't believe site that says "ships in 24 hours"). Takes 2-3 weeks to arrive. Allow this extra time...

Good tire though. Price was right - $189 each plus 14.25 shipping.

meant to post a few more...
