I'm looking at BFG Advantage T/A and the Firestone AS. I have BFG's 205/60/15 and am looking at 205/65/15, or 195/65/15. Taller tire, close to the same width. Anyone have experience on the Firestone and the size? These seem to be the picks for a high performance all season tire. Suggestions?

I know it was not a Porsche 914 but I put Firestone Fire hawk AS on my DD Lexus RX 400h that I would jam in the turns. It was front wheel drive but the thing is it was like a whole new car. I was so impressed I kept telling people. I had only run the same tire type that was on it when I got it and I got 30,000 miles each time 2 x sets of Goodyear. My car ran so much better that with the Goodyear sets.

Someone should put the Firestone Fire hawk AS on and try them. The last set of tires I put on my 76 914 I was unimpressed with.
