I'm due for tires for my Duster and can't decide. Reviews are all over the place...

I need different sizes for front and rear. I'm honestly not too concerned about cost but would like to be reasonable. I also only need summer tires as the car is put away for winter.

Sizes are: Front - 245/45R17
Rear - 275/40R18

I was thinking of the Firestone Firehawks...

Thanks,

Riddler

Yes I’m quite sure…

At the time of my build the fronts are OEM Mustang and the rears OEM corvette sizes.

175mm = 6.8” I doubt that’s what a Corvette has or what you are after.

I got some M/T street comps and love 'em. If it clears up, doubtful, and they didn't throw gravel on 175, I'll really be able to flog them hard after work today.

What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?

Edit:
I love the color and wheels. Is the car set up for the twisties?

The car is setup for really anything. It's for RMS front and rear and entirely on coilovers. Last couple years I've been just driving it and enjoying. But the tires are older and hard.
