Good price, good tire, just wish it lasted longer.

I replaced the original Continental tires on my Edge ST with the Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultras. The Continentals lasted 25,000mi. The Bridgestones were just shy of the wear bars after about 22,000mi. and had to be replaced before winter. They were rotated and all 4 tires had about the same tread life remaining and were worn evenly across the tire. The car was not driven aggressively. They are a low profile tire, size 265/40R21, maybe around 23,000mi-25,000mi is all i can get out of that size. I just hoped for a little longer tread life. Still, the tire had a nice tread design and seemed to handle great in snow last year and on wet roads even at 3/32 tread depth. The ride was smooth and quiet and they came at a reasonable price compared to other similar tires. I ended up replacing them with another set of the same Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultras mainly because of the price. They're a good, top of the line, tire brand and they were priced well below Continental, Pirelli, and Michelin, and had a nicer All Season tread design than their competitors. I would recommend this tire.

This tire should not be sold for luxury SUV's /Terrible wear

Purchased the Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra for my wife's Mercedes GLS with the expectation of having a comfortable, quiet tire with long treadwear as Bridgestone advertises and I've experienced with Michelin tires. Within 17,000 in 1 year of use, the Alenza's are at 3/32 and closing in on the wear bars. I didn't feel safe having my wife and son continue to drive the vehicle with these tires after only 17,000 miles due to the potential to aqua-plane due to the worn tread. As such, I was forced to buy new tires. I wouldn't recommend this tire if you are thinking that Bridgestone's claimed 800 treadwear rating has any validity to it unless my 4 tires were defective. I'm sure I'm not the first consumer to bring this matter to Bridgestone's attention. These tires do not perform as advertised.

The tires that came with my new RX are bald now

And I have driven only 40k. Lexus dealership told me to change two tires at 35k. I have just pushed it a bit more. But I am disappointed that these tires last only 40k. And I have mostly highway driving. Everything is great with tires except the durability. Which I think is a major issue. Bridgestone should fix this.

Great tires

When I needed tires for my Traverse I shopped around for price, available and good shop. I found them through Tiresplus and with their help they found them at a Firestone service center that is partnered with them. They went through the tires and all the extras I want with the tires. They mounted the tires on my rims and they was fast on doing so. I have done business with TiresPlus for years and they have never disappointed me ever.

Terrible Treadlife

With an 80K treadwear rating this tire is the worst performing tire I've ever owned. Despite rotating the tires every 5 to 6K miles and keeping them properly inflated, they will not make 30K miles before requiring replacement. Traction and comfort are OK, but nothing special. Without question this will be my last set of Bridgestone tires.

Back with Bridgestone

I've been around the block with OEM tires on my 2014 Porsche Cayenne S as well as a 2013 Mercedes GLK 350 and sorry to Pirelli and Michelin but nothing compares to the immediate satisfaction of a smooth quiet ride of the new Alenza AS Ultra and with an 80K mileage warranty, I'll be reporting back for a long time. I had the Bridgestone Dueler H/L on a Mercedes ML350 and they were great as well regarding wear and ride. Make no mistake, the Pirelli and Michelin brands make fantastic tires but neither never made it to half the mileage warranty even with consistent rotation. I did receive a prorated cost due to early tire wear but it gets expensive replacing tires like these every 12 - 18 months.

Alenza AS Ultra

So far very happy with purchase. Great riding tire in dry and wet conditions. Cannot comment yet on winter performance. Newly purchased and therefore wear is also unknown at this time. For the Lexus the tire has improved the ride and handling has been improved over the replaced tires. No regrets would buy again.

Bridgestone 80K Tire Options

I don't know why Bridgestone needs to change the Series/Name of their Tires that produce Good/Great Results that make it difficult to impossible to Get the Local Tire Dealers to either find U the previous tire on the Vehicle or a Easy Alternative ....

Bridgestone's Have Never Let Me Down!!!

This is my fourth set of Bridgestones and so far I am very pleased with the Ultra. When I bought these ties, I had over 93,000 miles on my previous set of Alenza Plus. They still had a few more miles left in them before getting to the tire tread wear bar, but I was getting ready for a road trip to Indiana and wanted to be prepared with new tires in case of winter road conditions My tire shop can never believe how many miles I am able to get out of a set of tires, especially since my SUV is used in my Limousine business and runs the roads hard. My secret to long tread life? I use a tire shop that offers a lifetime alignment package and also does oil changes so it is super simple to make one stop for service every 5,000 miles. Rotate, balance, check alignment and oil change every 5,000 miles like clockwork and you too can get amazing life out of your tires.

Excellent Tire

Have driven 40k on this set of tires got 30k out of the ecopias. Very cushioned ride. At first they seemed noisier than the ecopias but the ecopias were extremely quiet. Either way doesn't bother me now and I'm impressed with wear I think I can get 50k which is great for a tire on the Highlander.
