I can’t find anywhere on Firestone’s site that the RWL Indy 500’s are being made…..odd

Also, has anyone ever tried these? Hankook ST tires? They are available in all kinds of 15” sizes. I don’t think they look all that bad?

yeap, weird, but it appears available from some sellers around thought.

to make it even weirder... Priority Tires shop is not offering Indys on their website, but thet are selling throught the ebay account.

I remember Dunlops G/T qualifiers Tires ( my very first RWL tires in Venezuela ) was not available into the USA market so none dealer offered, but Dunlop SP Sport GT which later were also available in Venezuela ( was my second set of tires ). Soooo maybe is about the market ?

Indys are being made in Mexico


the thread pattern on those Hankook look very similar to Indys, just the font looks odd

I only see them on ebay. I contacted the seller and he said the tires will be no older than 2021. I guessing that was when they were discontinued. Also I only see 275 and 295 15`s available, All other sizes are showing out of stock.

I edited my reply while you quoted me... found them on Priority but just 275 and 295 for 15"s as you mention, but I have seen 255s on ebay

https://www.prioritytire.com/firestone-firehawk-indy-500-295-50r15-105s-sl-as-a-s-all-season-tire/


Last time I saw indys being sold it was maybe 10 years ago... couple of years after I got mines... on those days it was hard to me to get mines in fact. I think on those days were discontinued already. But... maybe a new batch?


Editing: Nevermind... 255 I saw were on a mexican website ( also Colombia )

https://radialllantas.com/products/255-60-r15-firestone-firehawk-indy-500-102s

also 70 profile available around
