Didn't last 15k miles!

Very disappointed with these tires. This was my first time buying Bridgestone. They had great reviews so I bought them for my wife's Tiguan. Just took the car in today and all 4 needed to be replaced (they were at 1/32 or 2/32). The rears lasted 15k miles, the fronts only lasted 10k miles. The guys at Americas Tire said they've never seen a tire wear this fast and have such poor durability. My wife doesn't drive aggressively and the tires are supposed to last for 80k miles so 10k is ridiculous. The warranty covered some of the early wear but not one of the tires because the metal mesh was showing. This makes no sense. If the tire is so worn down after 10k miles, why does the warranty not cover it? So, after paying over $1000 for these tires last year, I just had to buy new tires again. And, I had to pay for installation again which the warranty obviously doesn't cover. Needless to say I won't be buying Bridgestone again and recommend that others stay away from these tires despite the ok reviews. For the premium cost, I think it's unreasonable to have a tire last 10-15k miles and the warranty doesn't cover what it should.

Great traction but loud

These tire have great grip and good cushion in all conditions, but they are loud. At highway speeds, I hear a loud hum, it's not too terrible but definitely noticeable. Around 45 mph, is when the tires get the loudest. It's a very loud thumping hum that feels like it vibrates the car at times. Hopefully the noise goes away as the tread wears more.

Didn't last a year.

I purchased 4 new tires upon the recommendation of the garage I go to. 11 months later, after only **14,000 miles**, I have bald patterns throughout the tread, and will require new tires heading in to the Midwest winter. These tires are marketed to last 70,000 miles, minimum. And because my husband is able to do some mechanical maintenance on my car and has for years all rotations and mechanical fixes aren't documented at a garage - so my warranty is null and void. How frustrating! My Dad sold Bridgestone tires for 40+ years before retiring and when he looked at them this weekend he was very disappointed. So. Frustrated.

Wobbles while driving

I have driven on brandnew country road blacktop road and expressway. 25mph - 75 mph THe car wobbles realy bad at low and high speed. I did NOT have this problem before purchase of the new tires. My husband bought Bridgestone last month for his JEEP and we thought they would be good fit for my Subaru. Not so, I need to return it to the dealer, waste time and headache to WHY this is happening. Very Fratrated with the purchase.

Not Sure About These Tires

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.)

Recently purchased

We have about 1500 miles on these tires so it's early to comment on durability. With respect to driving conditions the tires perform well in dry, rain , slippery and snow covered conditions (8 inches). Definitely would recommend the tires. Excellent warranty 70,000 miles!

Weather Peak

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.

Great all around tire

I bought this tire for all season driving. I had had Michelin on my car for the last three sets of tires. I bought these tires because I already had them on two other vehicles. I cannot believe how much better these tires perform in curves and has enhanced handling of the car. I have much better traction in the rain. I have not had them long enough to have tried them on snow or ice on this car. My car being rear wheel drive we will see this winter. Overall, I am really pleased with these tires and would buy them again.
