Description
The Firestone Firehawk Sport 245/35 R20 is custom-engineered for premium sport sedans, performance coupes, and high-trim executive vehicles (such as the Mercedes-Benz E-Class/C-Class AMG lines, BMW 5 Series and 4 Series, Audi A6/A7, Porsche, and sport trims of the Toyota Camry or Honda Accord). This high-performance tire focuses on providing an aggressive contact patch and maximum lateral stiffness to eliminate tread squirm under extreme cornering g-forces and emergency braking on high-temperature summer tarmac.
Key Product Advantages:
Razor-Sharp Handling (35% Ultra-Low Profile): Virtually eliminates sidewall deflection under aggressive lateral loads, providing instantaneous steering feedback and ultimate chassis tracking.
Fortified Rim Protection & Extra Load Casing (XL): Carrying a high 95 load index, the internal tire matrix is reinforced to easily handle heavy loads and high inflation pressures, safeguarding expensive 20-inch wheels from road shock.
Maximum Y-Speed Rating Certified: Technically certified for absolute structural integrity and safe operation under intense thermal stress at continuous highway speeds up to 300 km/h.
