Durability, excellent driving behaviour on any surface and pleasant journeys are just some of the benefits of the Firestone Winterhawk 3. The tyre was designed for use in passenger cars. Thanks to a directional tread with a V-shaped arrangement, the model guarantees short braking distances on wet roads and a high level of driving safety. The designers of the tyre put a great deal of thought into an optimum distribution of forces within the tyre. This means that the tread wears evenly and slowly and the full range of performance can be achieved throughout the model's service life, regardless of the figure on the milometer. Firestone Winterhawk 3 tyres ensure stable driving behaviour, with the vehicle sticking to its path and providing optimum safety during sudden manoeuvres, such as lane changes or emergency braking. The directional tread ensures outstanding evacuation of snow and slush. The V-shaped arrangement of the grooves evacuates water rapidly and effectively. The tread pattern also protects against aquaplaning and ensures that the vehicle maintains outstanding grip, regardless of the weather. The Firestone Winterhawk 3 is the ideal solution for all drivers looking for balanced performance, short braking distances and stable driving behaviour, regardless of the road surface or weather conditions.
Firestone is an American brand founded by Harvey S. Firestone in 1905 in Akron, Ohio. The brand specialises in manufacturing mid-market tyres characterised by outstanding value for money and balanced performance. The Firestone brand now belongs to the Bridgestone Group. The Firestone range includes tyres for cars, light commercial vehicles, lorries and agricultural machines. The brand was one of the first large-scale manufacturers of tyres, with Firestone tyres fitted as standard on the cars that left the Ford Motor Company's production lines.

Opinion from outside IE
It really is a good tyre. In this price I was looking for some Dunlops but I have found these new tyres from Firestone at the last moment before the purchase. I admit that in this year the winter was not hard but they have nevertheless proved themselves during the whole winter season. Very good grip on both dry and wet surface. The ESP system had to activate sporadically. I do not know how would it be in a heavier vehicle but I can recommend these tyres to be used in compact cars. I have already tested the Michelin Alpin and now, in my second car, I have the Goodyear tyres so I have a possibility to compare them in terms of various features. Good tyres that I would like to highly recommend. Read more Collapse

I am not a slow driver. I am driving rather fast, especially outside the city and I have to admit that these tyres gave me a possibility to develop a quite high speed (70-100 mph) on the unploughed roads! My car is sticked to the road and I have never had any problems with an aquaplaning. I have not exchanged these winter tyres for summer ones yet because they are pretty good in summer conditions as well, especially in corners. The tyres provide safe driving in all weather conditions, good traction and low rolling resistance. Read more Collapse

The tyres are remarkably quiet. I have not noticed any difference between my summer tyres and these winter ones. My previous winter tyres (Pirelli SottoZero II) have been decidedly louder. It is a ture pleasure to drive on these tyres both on wet and dry surface. I am positively suprised with their quality. These are one of the best winter tyres I have ever had (and I used to buy only premium brand tyres). What is more, the tyres look really good. I strongly recommend. Read more Collapse

I have purchased these tyres taking into consideration the reviews of the previous model - WinterHawk 2, which in several tests conducted by drivers had very high ratings. That is why I have chosen Firestone WinterHawk 3 tyres. I do not regret my decision because my car drives like it was sticked to the road. The driving is comfortable and the tyres are great in snow (it was hard to test them precisely since the winter was very mild this year). I do recommend! Read more Collapse

I have chosen these tyres because of the price to ADAC rating ratio. It is difficult to write a particular review about various features of these tyres because I have not tested them in terms of braking distance on different surfaces and have not measured the noise they generate, etc. I can only say that I often had to drive in difficult road conditions and these tyres have never let me down. I strongly recommend! Read more Collapse

tyres used last winter, which is just in my area was almost completely without snow. Previously, three seasons of dyes I and comparing, it is best liquor clung to the surface (the first season) if the subject was a little disappointed. Firestone curve on wet pavement may lose traction before it recovers quickly to drive the dynamics you can get out of the corner a little wider. For he is good remove inequality and peace. Unfortunately, very quickly, it consumes (at least initially) the tread disappeared from my sight, and if it continues like this for two consecutive seasons tread is already spent. Auto is the powerful engine and drive fast, but earlier in the durability of tires looked a little better (especially since his wife bought a Nokia and did not notice the loss of tread) .

Tire in Exhibit 3 in my opinion is worse than the previous generation 2. In fact, the good performance of the previous generation led me to this choice, but soon I realized that it's not. The primary endpoint for me to evaluate is the ability to move out wet or snowy roads, the previous generation is no difference compared to summer. The behavior of the car was so different, after a month of use, I went to the ASO to check the drive AWD, if it works properly. Similarly, a difference in the corners. I decided to hold until the end of the season, in the case of future use of the car for the season 2016/2017 purchase more and they sell. At the end I mention that the generation using 2 to 3 seasons and transported the 60 tys.km. Read more Collapse

Hi I have the second set of tires this brand Firestone Winterhawk. The first winter was using only 7 seasons (7) do not lose their properties at the end, I am very happy with them and their grip so I decided to buy a new Winterhawk 3. already drove 3000 km and I am impressed are definitely quieter than the model Winterhawk 2. Many I'll winter to ski the mountain areas to snow is not foreign to me. Very good grip on snowy roads. Good slush drainage. I am very happy with them after the first season. I recommend these tires for people who are looking for tires for a decent price with excellent driving properties. Read more Collapse

I drove about 3000 km, two lanes on almost 1,000 km. They behave well, especially in the snow. Big enough wear tread, higher than expected, estimation still had two seasons. Many rolling resistance, resulting in high fuel consumption on the road. Any significant noise, which the road is a little heavy, especially at high speeds on dry roads. I'm not sure what the author meant by requesting an evaluation of the appearance of the tire. They look like normal tires, round, black, with no special frills. To summarize: these are the correct tires, but their price exceeds the parameters Read more Collapse

I 195/65 R15. Tire very good because of its handling characteristics in all conditions for one price disadvantage is the relatively soft sidewall to this profile with rapid steering wheel movement causes lush car. If someone pushes aggressively, it could be a problem. I checked the other side of the hardness of the tires of the middle shelf and upper and much has soft sides as Winterhawk 3 - could such technology now prevails. I recommend for riding in a normal and peaceful. Not recommended for aggressive riding. Read more Collapse

I had four tires, a few steps down to, and the other in the process of moving suffered = 2 bulbs 2 tires. Flexible sides also have the disadvantage of what has already been written, the hard tires work to lateral loads, for example when cornering at high speed. If someone passes quietly and takes care of tires by avoiding the borders is certainly these tires are made for him, having taken fatastyczną, but for me, are faulty, do not buy more of this company for a long time.

The Great winter year was not so difficult for me to fully assess the typical "winter" tire performance. For me it is a very good tire for driving in the conditions of autumn and winter, especially for city driving, where it prevails in recent years, mainly water and slush. Under these conditions inhibit the car well, the tire is very quiet and comfortable. At the time snow tire also performed well enough on the road. I recommend. Read more Collapse
This is my first new tire. I expected more from them, I have not tested in the winter snow last year was mild. Dry year very well tire of the road, while in the wet traction lose too quickly, resulting in a quick turn on the ABS and ESP. The reason for this can be the vehicle mass (1700 kg), but drugs which had always exercised better. Regarding comfort, I do not have reservations, we know that the new tire is new. Read more Collapse

Very solid tires for a decent price, winter is about 5,000 km, of which about 2,000 km of roads (motorways and krajówki ordinary). In fact, the absence of problems, that little "forced" to find fault, it's that 2-3 times in dry conditions on long turns, you might have the impression they are trying to throw the car on the outside, but it might as well be driving too fast ...;) Read more Collapse

I live in the mountains near. Disappointing in rain mixed with wet conditions, in particular the phenomena of aquaplaning and skidding in conditions where I not with other tires. On good enough snow. Overall I would say that in the same price range, there are many better alternatives, especially the Fulda Kristall Montero 3 with which I had no doubt the best results. Read more Collapse

tires purchased after Oponeo recommended by the vendor. Did the work, offer a comfortable ride around town (90%). They provide security in emergency situations. With melting snow, unfortunately, there have been minor slippage during braking. Snow is conducted safely and not recorded any uncertain situation.

Winter 2013/2014 in Upper Silesia is almost the end of the fall, and without snow and slush, and therefore do not take into account the assessment at this stage.
