Description
The Firestone Roadhawk 2 225/60 R17 is purposely engineered for compact-to-mid-sized family crossovers and modern SUVs (such as the Hyundai Tucson, Kia Sportage, Toyota RAV4 base trims, Nissan X-Trail, and Subaru Forester). This second-generation Roadhawk pattern focuses on delivering low rolling resistance to maximize fuel mileage and exceptional tread compound durability to resist high-temperature highway stress, ensuring a quiet and reliable passenger cabin experience.
Key Product Advantages:
Fuel Efficiency & Extended Treadwear: 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.
Premium Ride Cushioning: The 60-series profile provides a generous sidewall height to cushion the vehicle cabin from road imperfections, while optimized tread block alignment dynamically reduces road-contact noise.
Reliable Load & Speed Rating (99H): Built to safely support a maximum load of 775 kg per tire and certified for safe, continuous highway speeds up to 210 km/h under high temperature conditions.
