I also agree with the comment about Firestone NOT being a good road tire. The 23 degree bar angle wears rapidly, from my own experience with a tractor used for lighter duty field work and spending a lot of time on the road hauling grain. I would talk to an independent tire dealer and gain some input from them, which is what I did. My tractor is a 180 horsepower tractor used for planting, cultivating, stalk chopping, but it probably spends half of its time hooked to grain trailers and on the road.

This was the recommendation from my local independent tire dealer, who handles all major brands and some discount brands, too. Someone you deal with may have a better feel on something other than Michelin, because these were not an inexpensive tire. They seem to be holding up very well and I do like the looks of the tire itself, but it does not have quite as much lug on the ground as a Firestone radial would.
