Just got these mounted the other week. Coming from Continental DW in size 265/35F and 285/35R, I went back to stock sport Rays sizes due to the $150 difference in price for these sizes in the Firehawks. Without a doubt I can say these are the better tires. A lot more initial bite than the DW and much quieter to boot. Plus the aggressive tread pattern is more visually appealing.

So far they’ve only been street driven with some spurts of hard cornering and acceleration, but the steering wheel feels lighter in my hands and the response is better.

Will have more input after autoX.
