The China stone is Rockstone....hahhahhawOw... I was thinking FireStone is something like China tire which never knew this brand before.
this tire was last owner pass down to me, is new tire which production date 0114, i dare not try on high speed corner, because just scare on treawear 260.
Ya, to down size for 16inc rim, main point is my petrol consumption high and low pick up, that why 16inc rim may have better pick up power. but i can;t say my point is 100% good.
Now my CVT pick up for 1 to 3 gear was not better then Vios (A). Maybe let go to check on my A/F tune and Gear shifting tune, if this can improve my consumption and power, may follow what Vr2Turbo advice.
Korean is Roadstone, many get confused....
Malaysia is Silverstone
Japanese is Bridgestone
and Firestone is US but now belongs to Japs....
Yup, as bro. Izso mentioned traction not by treadwear. Category an model of tyre are more important.
As for pick up, smaller rims does not represent better pick up. With smaller rims you will have to compensate back with tyre height therefore overall diameter is still the same, that is why 215/50R17 becomes 225/55R16

A while back there was some recall on their tyres....Firestone is quite popular in the US.
