Finishing 18th out of 20 competitors, the Firestone Winterhawk 4 earned a final rating of 'Satisfactory.' It performed admirably with good winter suitability and secure handling characteristics on wet tracks. However, the tire was criticized for its delayed steering response and limited mileage performance. Notably, it was most successful in the aquaplaning (longitudinal) discipline, demonstrating strong performance in this particular area.
