Description
The Firestone Roadhawk 2 215/55 R17 is engineered as a highly dependable and efficient size for popular mid-sized family sedans and compact crossovers (such as the Toyota Camry, Nissan Altima, Hyundai Sonata, Kia K5, Mazda 6, Honda Civic, and Subaru XV). This second-generation Roadhawk pattern focuses on providing reliable wet and dry traction, shorter braking distances under summer thermal stress, and an optimized footprint that reduces rolling resistance for improved fuel economy.
Key Product Advantages:
Optimized Ride Comfort (55% Profile): The profile height delivers an ideal balance between responsive steering handling and effective road-shock absorption, cushioning the cabin from road imperfections and cats-eyes.
Extended Treadwear & Fuel Savings: Formulated with an advanced rubber compound that ensures uniform wear distribution across the tread surface, minimizing degradation and heat build-up on dry summer roads.
High W-Speed Rating Certified: Globally certified for absolute structural stability and optimal thermal dissipation at continuous highway cruising speeds up to 270 km/h.
