Live winter to the fullest
Make the most out of winter with the Firestone Winterhawk 4. This new generation winter tyre delivers optimal control and handling in cold and unpredictable conditions. Designed for a safe and cost-efficient ride, the Winterhawk 4 will keep you in control on winter roads. The tread pattern relies on unique sipes, grooves and angular edges to attain traction on snow, while the innovative compound and tread design help the tyre stop 4% faster on wet roads than its predecessor.

Great on the motorway
The car feels more stable in crosswinds since fitting these. A sensible buy.
- Martina W.10.11.20255.0 / 5
Happy with the purchase
My mechanic recommended Firestone and he was right. Quiet, stable, no complaints. Grip in corners is reassuring and the steering feels a bit sharper than before.
- Stefan H.02.11.20255.0 / 5
Fine tyre, minor niggles
Solid everyday tyre. Nothing flashy, but it does everything I ask of it. Early days, but first impressions are very good.
- Sandra W.29.07.20255.0 / 5
Great value for money
Good tyre overall. Would have liked a bit more feedback through the steering.
- Michael G.25.06.20254.0 / 5
Braking feels secure
Switched from a budget brand to the Winterhawk 4 — the difference in braking is obvious. They're okay. Not the last word in steering feel.
