Firestone's FR710 tire has been selected as
standard original equipment on the 2011 Chrysler
300 Limited and 300C luxury sedans. The Firehawk GT
will be an optional factory fitment for the same
models.
The specially designed and engineered FR710 all-
season performance tires are size P225/60R18 99T.
When equipped with the optional Touring-tuned
suspension, the 300 Limited and 300C models feature
wider 245/45R20 99V Firehawk GT all-season
performance tires that help contribute to the car’s
handling capabilities.
“The Chrysler 300 series sedans combine luxury and
performance from a long-standing, iconic brand. The
Firestone brand has a reputation in its own right
of being a top performance tire,” says Michael
Martini, a divisional president at Bridgestone.
“We are proud to be providing the critical
connection to the road for these new world-class
sedans and believe that both tires will fully
complement the luxurious driving experience that
Chrysler has created in the all-new 300 models,” he
adds.
Both tires are engineered with the company’s
exclusive UNI-T technology that delivers
performance attributes such as practical all-season
traction capability, according to Martini. “The
Firehawk GT also features an advanced technology
called Veri-Pitch that minimizes pattern and road
noises often found in performance tires,” he
says.
