For real...how are the Firestone Indy 500?

I like a squared sidewall and a rim protector that protrudes out. Tread style, sidewall style, tread wrap, tire section width/tread width makes for a certain aesthetic.
I think they look fantastic.
Probably drive it in a couple of days. As mentioned, I've used them on my other S2000 and I loved them. Just wanna see how well they do with this S2000's very street oriented setup.
I scrubbed, decontaminated, clayed, IPA'd and ceramic coated the wheels, including the barrels.

I went with the Firestone Indy 500s in a 245 square setup earlier this year.
For my street only turbo application they're great. Very quiet, and they hold ~400whp on dry pavement, which is about all I was looking for in a tire.

Yep. Although expensive doesn’t mean stylish. I’m not a big fan of Michelin/Pirelli/etc., tread or sidewall designs the vast majority of the time.
Michelin’s CrossClimate 2 is maybe the ugliest tire I know of.
