The Firehawk Indy 500 V2 is Firestone's Ultra High Performance Summer tire developed for drivers of sports cars, sporty coupes, and performance sedans who want to elevate their experience with technology shaped by Firestone's racing heritage. Engineered for exhilarating dry road precision and confident wet weather control, the Firehawk Indy 500 V2 was built to deliver what enthusiasts expect from a tire inspired by real world motorsports. Like all summer tires, Firehawk Indy 500 V2 tires are not intended for use in near freezing temperatures, snow, or ice.
The Firehawk Indy 500 V2 features an updated tread compound and pattern designed to optimize contact pressure and enhance wet performance. Its performance focused, silica enhanced compound is molded into an asymmetric tread design that builds on the established legacy of the Indy 500's formula with refinements aimed at sharper steering response and improved cornering stability. A revised circumferential groove layout incorporates Firestone's proprietary Pulse Groove Technology to improve water evacuation and wet braking capability. The enhanced groove geometry works with the updated compound and tread design to deliver strong wet surface traction and hydroplaning resistance, helping drivers maintain confidence when conditions get slippery.
The tire's internal structure features a high-turnup polyester casing beneath twin high-tensile steel belts combined with a dual-ply nylon reinforcement to provide responsive handling, stability and high-speed capability.
