Kinda disappointed

Replaced my Firestone All season tires which were great, with weathergrip Firestone tires. Terrible mistake. May return due to noise, vibration slight. And cost more than the all season Firestone which were great. These are great in rain but driving on sunny day Terrible. These are horrible in every way except they are great in the rain. I have 90 days and am trying to get use to These new set but not sure if I will keep or return and get the all season I had before.

Just got them

Several hundred miles in the upper peninsula snow and ice they handle well , they look like snow tires but their not, so they'll be good longevity 65,000 mile warranty. Put a weather guard and a Firestone winter tire side by side there isn't a lot of difference!

One month summer driving

I like these new tires very much. It has been only a month since I purchased these four tires. It's summertime so I have driven on dry roads most of the time and a few times while raining. So far so good! They have a good grip and perform very well when I brake. I have not been able to test them on snowy or icy roads yet but I feel much safer on the road with this Weathergrip tires. Definetely recommend them!

Mileage rating is not accurate

These tires performed well for the first 10k miles, after that point the performance went downhill quickly. The rating of these is listed at 65k miles I stretched these to just over 30k at which point I had to change, being that I had a young driver now I could not trust having my daughter use my car & feel safe with her driving. This is my second time of giving Bridgestone/Firestone brand tires a chance, & never again will I purchase a Bridgestone/Firestone tire.

Great Colorado Tires

Bought these after one of my OEM tires blew out. Comparative to the OEM tires on the car the weather grips are a little higher on the road noise but by no means deafening. Where these tire excel though is the winter and rain, I have driven on these tires to Crested Butte and Breckinridge during ski season and never once did I feel like car was going to slide out from under me. In fact, with these tires in the snow I've had to TRY to induce the car into oversteering. I have also driven through some flash flooding in Manitou Springs and when other cars were noticeably hydroplaning mine was constantly planted. If you are more focused on a quiet ride these tires are not for you. But if you are looking for some higher grip on adverse condition All season tires that aren't as loud and inefficient as All terrain tires these are a really good option to consider. I've surprising gotten 35 mpg with them, and my car is rated for 31 mpg.

Great tire for snow and rain

Just purchased our second set of these tires for our minivan. The first set lasted 3 years and approx 60K. We love the traction in the snow and rain and they are quiet on the road. Lasted longer than I expected. We have been very happy with these tires.

Out of balance feeling

I bought these and had to bring them back three times and I still have a shake like an out of balance feeling and fire stone kept telling me there's nothing wrong with them. I have now driven them approximately 15,000 miles and im surprised my teeth are still in my head.

SUBIE CAN DOOO

Bought these for my Subie. I live in Oklahoma and we get all kinds of crazy weather. Not the snow that some get but we almost always get a good shellacking before we get out few inches of snow. These did just fine for my wife and I. And when we get a good Okie tornado storm blow through we can get several inches of rain in a very very short time. Not sure if anyone has ever used the Oklahoma Highway/street systems but lets just say that they would have to work pretty hard to make it up to sucking level! These tires never failed or let me down. And a good old Okie summer day can see a temp of 110 so you can only imagine the street temp... again, never failed me in the least. Soooo..... are these the best, maybe not, But I've not found anything that I like more. But more importantly... these mounted on my sure footed Subaru make for a safe drive. That peace of mind when my wife is driving the car is well worth the price of the tire!!

Purchased From Belle Tire Who Did Excellent A++ Job!!

I purchased these tires and some are saying you must replace all 4 tires with these tires and yet I had a flat tire that started to leak again and then I got another flat tire on a set of 4 tires which has 1/2 the mileage on them and they are also A++ tires and that is the General Altimax RT-43 H Rated tires. Yet, I put the two good ones on the back and was able to get my rims with the flat tires up to Belle Tire and I wanted just a front set of tires and so I purchased two of these tires and put them on the front and tracking correct. Belle Tire did a excellent job on the mounting and balancing of the tires. They feel the same as the General Altimax RT-43 H Rated and that is the Firestone Weathergrip H Rated. I have driven on them some and they drive excellent in the rain and dry conditions. They balanced very nice and have a very nice ride quality to them. They should also do a very good job in the snow because of the stagger step and also release on the open sides of the tires. Thank you for the tires and these are very good tires and as long as paired for either front or rear they drive fine with some other tires. I intend to put about 40k miles on them and get another set of 4 tires and I might get these if they are still available at that time because they are very good tires. Thank you for the tires.
