Fiesta
Bought for a 2017 Ford Fiesta ST. With the stock potenzas out of production, I only found 2 performance tire options (not track tires) for the FiST, Firestone Indy’s and these. I bought these, my friend bought the Firestone’s for his FiST. These are louder and ride a little more rough than the potenzas. They don’t quite have the same turn in as stock, but I believe they are better than the Indy’s are; they’re just closer to the same feel as stock imo. While I’m not 100% sure, I do think the Indy’s and these handle about the same, these just turn in with a little more confidence. I think the firestones are slightly quieter(?) but both are louder than stock. And neither handle as well as the stock tires in the dry. I think these are actually better in the wet, though. Haven’t driven the firestones in the wet, he says they are “ok” in the wet for what it’s worth. In the extreme cold they all, of course, lose a LOT of grip. And they kinda suck in the snow (only driven in a couple inches) but are better than stock, imo. Bottom line is that I’m happy with them but wish they were a little quieter. It’s not on the highway that it bothers me, it’s hard to describe but turning into a parking spot, they are just louder and kinda seem to want to grab every pebble and grind it into the tread…and I never would have thought something like that would bother me, but here we are. And I wish I could have just got a new set of stock Bridgestones. That said, I think these are the best option for the FiST at this time. I like them better than the Indy’s anyway, and it’s not like those suck. With no other options, I will definitely buy these again for my car. That, of course, depends on how many miles I get out of them and how the performance drops off but, all in all, I’m happy with these tires and discount tire in general, was fast, non-irritating service and have used them several times now.

These tires are much better than the OEM ones. They’re grippy in the rain as well, which you definitely need driving around Houston. 10/10 would definitely buy again. The rain performance is fantastic.
