For those who don’t no now you know. Firehawk indy500 pretty much are just rebranded Bridgestone potenza re003 tires. For anyone whose on a budget I think these are the best bang for your buck. I’ve had a set of these in my old bmw 471 hp and 490 lbs tq and it held up just about as good as my Michelin super street grip wise on daily and aggressive driving in the streets. They do have a stiffer sidewall feel to them though. For almost half the price of the Michelin ps4s or ss is a good option for anyone whose on a budget.

I second they are Excellent Tires and look Aggressive as hell on ANY car - get mistaken for Road race and Drag radial all the time.

Bridgestone bought Firestone in 1988, so it makes sense.

Have these coming on my new wheels at the end of January. Interested to see how these compare to the PS4S I had on previous wheels for about a year. $100 cheaper per wheel than the PS4S. I’ve only heard good things about these so far.

Is the RE003 marketed in the US? I don't see it on Tirerack and Google search only came up with foreign links.

Sorry, I was referring to the Firehawk Indy 500. I only see availability for the RE003 via non-US sites also. I ordered the Indy 500 in the 275/30-19 size & the RE003 isn’t even available in this size, only 275/35-19.
