Cool review.

I do agree. I purchased a set for my GT last year, and they are everything as advertised.
My take. I am a driver. It is my passion.
I had Summer Nitto's beforehand. These Firestones are miles above in grip, ride, and all around "tireability".
The grip level is absolutely impressive. I have taken them past their limits, and they just perform.
The ride is really nice. Less road noise, smoother feel, and all around confidence.
I am getting early wear. I could use an alignment. I would purchase again.
I will disagree about the cold. I somewhat daily my 1987 GT, and it has gotten just to freezing as of late. At 40* plus I am feeling good. Below that and it is a white knuckle ride. Even for my mildly modified 3.1. I need to go through a mountain pass daily and I definitely need to slow way down. I drove her a bit last winter, and the colder it gets, and the traction absolutely disappears. Tire pressure adjustments have no effect.
