Firestone) against a tyre from a manufacturer from Germany (
Continental). Generally,
Continental summer tyres are slightly better rated (92%) than
Firestone (70%). In this particular case, the Continental PremiumContact 7 has a better rating of 98% compared to 73% of the Firestone Firehawk Sport. Important for this comparison is also the
Autobild 2026 245/45 R19 test, where both the
Firehawk Sport and the
PremiumContact 7 were tested. See more mutual tests below. When it comes to comparison, eu labels can be also interesting - 100% of Firestone Firehawk Sport dimensions has A wet grip rating.

Firehawk Sport is made in Italy and
