Description
The Firestone Roadhawk 2 215/55 R17 is engineered to provide a balanced and dependable ride for popular mid-sized family sedans and compact crossovers (such as the Toyota Camry, Nissan Altima, Hyundai Sonata, Kia K5, Mazda 6, Nissan Kicks, and Subaru XV). This second-generation Roadhawk pattern focuses on delivering excellent traction, shorter braking distances under intensive summer heat, and utilizes a reinforced Extra Load (XL) construction to handle elevated weight capacities with maximum structural safety.
Key Product Advantages:
Reinforced Extra Load Casing (XL): Carrying a high 98 load index, the internal tire matrix is fortified to easily handle the elevated operational weight of modern vehicles under full load and higher inflation pressures.
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.
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.
