Customer Reviews
S2000
I bought these for my S2000 after spinning on the old ones. First thing I did was take the car out in the rain to see how they held up. 1 word, amazing. I had to force the car to lose traction meaning these Indy 500s held the road. I highly recommend them.

The staff is fantastic and worked very hard to beat a competitors promotion, I really didn’t want to buy the tires at Firestone. I love that when arrive at discount tire you’re made to feel very important and so many companies are loosing customer service due to cuts on labor and focusing only on profits. I learned after almost 49 years of retail experience that if you focus on customer service and bring up all the aspects of the business they will come back every time I speak to children, grandchildren I only speak of discount tire.
