Had to have tire replaced with less than 250 miles on it due to sidewall bubble. I'm 71 years old and have owned hundreds of tires, and never had this happen before. I think it may have been over-inflated by Firestone dealer where I purchased. Reason I suspect this is because I checked replacement tire after I got home and it had 40 pounds of air. (I check after car was parked in the shade for five hours.)

A Minnesota resident, today I had the opportunity to experience the Weatherpeak in 5 inches of snow and icy conditions and they performed fabulously. My 2005 Thunderbird has rear wheel drive with positraction. By way of background, I have used Blizzaks and Michelin Ice-2 Winter tires in the past. One of the issues was swapping the winter tire and summer tires which can be pricey regardless if you invest in extra wheels. So I was interested in the Weatherpeaks because of the year round capabilities. So now I have experienced their impressive winter performance! Looking forward to summer driving.

I just bought these tires so I can't comment on durability personally, but the handling is terrific,.the ride very quiet and the tread looks and feels solid. On durability I went with good wear on my Bridgestone Potenzas holding well on another of my vehicles.

I've sold these tires ever since they came out. Always had fantastic customer satisfaction. I finally put them on my vehicle because of my experiences selling them. They preform practically like a blizzak full snow tire. Yet they can be ran all year long and have a mileage warranty to boot!!! That is unheard of!!! It's the best of both worlds. You ge the majority of people's diving with every day mileage. Plus when the weather hits they preform just as good as a tires specially designed for those conditions. Also, wet performance is incredible! Night and day difference from previous Firehawks I had... Very satisfied customer. If your one the fence and drive in any sort of wet or freezing conditions these are your tires!

Nice tire but make sure that they road force balance them. I've had 2 vehicles for these tires. Both had high (bad) road force values but my local Firestone guy made good on them all and replaced the bad ones right away. So now we have very smooth, great riding tires on my wife's Q5 and my sons Sante Fe. I have firestone LE2s on my Nissan Frontier, my daughter's Lexus ES330 has Firestone weather grips and my other sons Crown Vic had firestone PVS's have to say I am a Bridgestone/Firestone fan.

I left a review when I first purchased these tires and wanted to update now that I have 22000 miles on them driving in all 4 seasons. I'm still extremely happy with my choice after researching several all weather options. Living in Minnesota, snow and ice performance was my #1 priority and I was not disappointed! I actually drove through two blizzards and never felt uncomfortable in those conditions. I was also pleasantly surprised summer driving as they were very quiet, handled great and didn't hydroplane or slide in heavy downpours. Tread life is very good and they are wearing evenly. Gas mileage was about on par with the stock tires despite the softer compound and more aggressive tread, these are actually lighter in weight. I would definitely recommend and will purchase these again in the future!

I have put over 40k miles on these tires and they are at about half tread. i do rotate them every 5k miles. I drive 120 miles a day total for work mainly highway. i live in central indiana and these have played in the whiteout conditions more than once on my 60 mile commute up north for work. no issues at all. people need to stop leaving bad reviews saying they wear fast. FIX YOUR CARS. tires don't chew themselves it's the vehicle parts, alignment, inflation, or balance that destroys them. if all of your bases are covered there they should last well over 60k miles. love them and i plan to get another set as soon as these are ready to be changed.

These tires have amazing wet hydroplaning resistance and snow traction. When driving in a Portland, Oregon snowstorm with 10 inches of snow earlier this year I was the only car that seemed to be able to drive in the snow. Unfortunately after 18,000 miles these tires were down to 3/32nd's despite having them inflated to 40psi front/38psi rear (2 psi above factory spec). Filed a warranty claim and switched to the Michelin Defenders.

I've now had this set of tires for 16 days and I've already driven 182 miles on it. An alignment was performed after the tires were installed. The combination of the new tires and the alignment made a nice improvement in ride quality. I'm quite pleased with these tires so far. They are much more suitable for my situation than the original equipment Sport tires. I don't need tires rated for 149 mph. The 130 mph rating on these WeatherPeak tires is plenty for me. I rarely reach 75 mph. Maybe I've touched 182 a couple times during passing. I can't imagine needing to go 90. I look forward to enjoying better Fuel Economy, Ride Comfort, Tread Life, and Snow and Ice Performance than the original Sport tires. I'm willing to trade off a little steering precision and a lot of high speed capability

Firestone store manager recommended these as I drive around 60k per year and value long tread life, a quiet ride and some winter (Ice and Snow) capability. I was astonished at how quiet they are especially considering how well siped they are for wet / winter traction. So far we've had little rain much less any winter weather but I've put over 4,000 miles on them in the less than 1 month that I've had them and I'm really pleased. The couple of times I've driven on wet roads with them, they stuck like glue. Wife said "look, dad got some new mudgrips" when she first saw them. Well, I did a little off-roading too and they did well. My Cherokee is no mudder but not a mall crawler either. Good Job Bridgestone! I'd highly recommend these. Only dow side is they are a bit firmer than the Firestone Destinations the Jeep came with OEM and my fuel mileage has suffered a bit (1-2 MPG) but that's to be expected going from tires with 73,000+ miles on them to brand new ones. They are getting about the same as the old tires did when they were new.
