FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Enhanced controllability
• High speed performance

OVERVIEW

The Firestone Firehawk PVS is a performance, winter tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. The PVS stands for Pursuit Vehicle Snow and it was made for law enforcement and high-speed emergency vehicles to use in winter weather.

The tire promotes a secure winter weather performance. The tread design and the tire compound work together to boost the ice and snow gripping capability. The stronger tread block design features a high-density siping detail that increases the number of biting edges gripping the road surface. The winter compound keeps the tire pliable even in the coldest temperatures, enabling the tire to increase its winter weather flexibility. The circumferential grooves help prevent hydroplaning by channeling water and slush from below the footprint. This combination enables the tire to receive the three mountain peak and snowflake symbol which notes it's capable of handling extreme winter weather.

The Firehawk PVS offers a secure high speed controllability. The model's stronger structure keeps the tire's ideal shape under the high speed driving pressure. As a structure does not deform, the tire is capable of performing at its best high speed capability. The tread design also manages to boost the model's controllability. The stronger block-shaped tread elements maintain the road contact at all times. This enhances the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In this manner, the tire becomes quicker and more accurate in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. As a result, the tire has a safer high speed performing capability.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
