Bought a set of Firestones several years ago at a swap meet. New in wrapper, but no
DOT numbers. Keep in dark dry environment till I got coupe on the road. Front tires were nearly slick after 2000 miles. Went with Coker radials. I think the Firestones may have been knockoffs. My vehicle is in great shape also. I am perplexed at the wear. Hope these radials are better, the ride sure is.
