#2 of 5 How do you like the stock Firehawks? by mike9476 Jan 25, 2006 (7:41 am)
We just took our HHR home last night. It is a Silver LT2 with leather. Nice car. I was doing some research online about the stock firehawks, and saw a lot of complaints on other cars. Have any of you had experience in rain or light snow with the Firehawk GTAs that come on the HHR? If so, let me know what you think.

Replying to: mike9476 (Jan 25, 2006 7:41 am) I can't comment personaly on the tires as I only had them on a couple weeks before I put winter tires on. Generaly speaking I haven't heard of any complaints about them from HHR owners except for a couple that were looking for an excuse to change tires/wheels anyway . In general again, I think people are happy with the winter performance with the vehicle (not tire specific), but of course they are new enough that tire wear hasn't come into play yet.
