The Firestone Wide Oval Indy 500 is currently sitting at the top of it's class on the TireRack owner survey, for what it's worth. I've always found the feedback on there to a decent, if not definitive guideline.

The Ecsta ASX is their all-seaon, not their "summer" tire, so will probably be a performance compromise right off the top, and it's mid pack in it's class on the same survey.

Honestly, given the difficulty in finding 16s, the price and the decent reviews, I'd be really tempted by the Firestone.
