The indy 500 isn't really NEW, just "renamed". It's the former Firehawk ss20. When I lost a ss20 to road debris, I was upset to find that the ss20 was "discontinued". They suggested the indy, saying it was the same tire. I was skeptical until I saw it. It is the exact same tread. The sidewall looks a little different. UTQG 500/a/a. Back and Front are S and T rated, 112/118mph. They do start drifting around the road at 110.
