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.

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.

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.

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!

Great tire, but only lasted 35,000 mile

It was a great tire, but only lasted half what was warranted. Got a replacement set of tires, but was charged for mounting and balancing, which I think is an oversight in their warranty policy. They're great as a one-tire, but don't expect them to last long.

Weathergrip 225/65/17

These tires were recommended to me by my local dealer. I am so far pleased. The tires are a little noisy(Barely noticable) as I was told. The ride and handling is excelent. As it is Summer I have yet to drive them in any adverse weather. I purchased them because I was told that they are better than the LE in the Snow. I am looking forward to trying them out.

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.

Best tires ever!!

Immediately I noticed how quiet and smooth these tires made my driving experience. Also, it makes me feel as if I'm driving on marshmallows! Truly the happiest I've ever been purchasing tires. Able to corner at high speeds and heavy rains are not a problem! Now the ice and winter roads will be a true test and am anxious for winter to come now!! ‍♀️

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!
