GT Radial vs Firestone

GT Radial offers tires at prices ranging from $40 to $150, with options for Passenger, Performance, and SUV/Truck tires that have a UTQG rating range of 400-600. Meanwhile, Firestone has a wider range of tire types available, including Passenger, Performance, SUV/Truck, and Winter options, and they are priced from $50 to $250. Both companies use the UTQG rating system, which measures treadwear, traction, and temperature resistance of tires to compare their quality. Developed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, this system helps consumers choose the right tire for their needs, with the treadwear rating providing an indication of expected lifespan. A higher treadwear rating means a longer expected tread life.
