Description Firestone Firehawk SZ90
The development of the summer tire Firestone Firehawk SZ90 was handled by specialists from Bridgestone, which explains the presence of a number of characteristic features of Japanese tires. First and foremost, these are reinforced sidewalls, which give this model reliability when operating on poor roads. In addition, one cannot fail to note the almost ideal balance between all technical characteristics, which is ensured by the use of advanced technologies and new materials in the tire design.
High performance of Run-Flat versions
Part of the sizes of this model were created using Run-Flat technology, which allows the tire to be operated in the event of a complete loss of pressure inside due to a puncture or cut. Even in such conditions, it demonstrates excellent traction and stability, but at speeds of no more than 80 km/h, allowing you to overcome the same distance. This ability is provided by the reinforced design of the sidewalls, which maintains the original shape of the tire that has lost its seal. At the same time, a number of components in the rubber compound prevent increased wear of the tread.
Absolute control over the car in any conditions
Since this model was initially intended for the most powerful modifications of passenger cars, it's no surprise that various interesting solutions were not spared during its development. One of them is the design of the shoulder area from the outside of the tread. It is distinguished by significant dimensions and the presence of many μ-shaped blocks. Together with the reinforced breaker, this gives the tire several important properties at once. First and foremost, these are fast and accurate reactions to steering wheel turns, as well as striking stability when performing maneuvers and turning. Thanks to this, a feeling of absolute control over the trajectory of the car's movement is created.
