Technical information
Focus: Standard
The largest and best-selling category, and Firestone ROADHAWK 2 belongs to it. No single property is pushed here at the expense of the others — comfort, grip, noise and tread life keep a sensible balance. For most drivers it is the safest bet: the tyre behaves predictably in the dry and in the wet and covers a decent number of kilometres.

What owners say
They are basically a Bridgestone Turanza T005 but with great rim protection, and maybe a little less tread depth but not even sure about that (look at the pictures).
The point is: this was my best buy in tyres, period. Good price (85€ assembled), excellent result. They are amazing for touring (essentially comparable to a Premium Touring tyre) with great grip even in heavy rains (tested multiple times) and competent at high speeds in the dry (tested at 190 give or take). They feel very safe without any surprises. Couldn't be happier. Highly recommended!
I did not know what to expect from these tyres when I bought them, as there were almost no tests and reviews. I am happy to report, that there are no unpleasant surprises with them! Tyres grips well both dry and wet, very good road comfort, low rolling resistance, noise comfort is average - depends on the surface and I believe, they got a bit noisier with the wear, but they are not load. Special mention to the rim protection - it is superb! Saved my rims a couple of times from the scratches. Tyres does not have a character to them, but they do what you want them to do. Overall, a very good touring tyre. After 10000kms and one season, fronts are down to 6.0 mm, rears are at 6.7 mm. With tyre rotation, they should have a decent lifespan.
P.S. Special mention to tyre width - I did not measure them, but at a glance, my 255 section Firestone's don't look wider than my 235 winter Nokians...
After two seasons and around 17'500 km (11'000 miles) with the Firestone Roadhawk 2 I can summarize my experience as follows:
This is not the cheapest tyre, it's not the quietest and the most comfortable. Also it's not a sports tyre. But it is very grippy and stable in heavy rain, at high speed and in extreme situations like emergency breaking on the highway.
After these 17'500 km (11'000 miles) the minimum tread depth of my Firestone tyres is 5.5 mm. That means, I can expect to drive at least 45'000 km (28'000 miles) until I reach the 1.6 mm mark. According to the last ADAC summer tyre test, this is a good value.
In short: I highly recommend the Roadhawk 2 tyres as safe touring tyre with good value for money.
After 2 years and ~25k km of running Goodyear Asy 6's, I decided to go for a more touring oriented tyre for a bit more comfort. Generally speaking, the Firestone really surpassed my expectations. In normal, relaxed driving conditions, it definitely drove as well as the Asymmetric 6, dry and wet. In more demanding conditions, like very heavy rain on the highway, sporty driving, poor asphalt, etc. it naturally didn't feel as planted as the Asy6, but not too far off, certainly very safe in all cases. After 4000km, the tyres look like new. The rim protection is very pronounced which is a huge plus. A drawback I would say is that at around 50-60km/h, they do get a bit noisy, but at usual cruising speeds it's alright.
Overall, looking at the tests, this tyre behaves a lot like the Bridgestone T005 it esentially was based on. I could argue that it is a premium-feeling tyre at a mid-range price, which honestly is all that anybody needs from a tyre. Definitely recommend.
This is the update review from my initial one that I posted on April 30th 2025.
Now after almost 5000 miles (7500km) I can provide a more confident insight in the performance of these tyres. I still state that these are the most comfortable summer tires that I have ever driven. Performance-wise I cannot be more satisfied than this.
The tyres are as quiet now as they were at the beginning. I can only hear the wind at the highway drive, and not the wheels rolling. A big plus from me!!
I am not a sporty driver, so car handling was never an issue.Cornering, braking, grip - all very well balanced, both dry and wet. Even though road imperfections are well mitigated I've noticed in exactly 2 occasions I had my front wheels touch the edge of a road rut and I felt my steering wheel trying to pull to the side. It was not dramatical or anything dangerous, but I have never felt it with my car before. I checked the car's suspension and it all seems to be OK, so it must be from the "softness" of the tyres.That is why I graded 8 on "Road Feedback"
From the wear and tear perspective, I am happy with that one too. The rubber is on the softer side of the scale, but I am so happy with the tyres, that I do not care if they wear down quicker than the competition. I will definitely buy them again when time comes. An excellent tyre for a regular/moderate daily driver that respects a quiet and comfortable ride.
