I bought my 2021 Mazda CX-9 used. Liked the car a lot and it drives like a smaller vehicle. After 1,000 miles I thought the brakes were grinding. Took it into a dealer and he said my tires were "chopped," whatever that is. But i did feel them, they were rough and i trusted the dealer. The grinding noise was coming from those tires, cheap ones put on by the dealer that sold the car. I bought four new Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra and it's almost unbelievable the difference in how the vehicle drives and handles. It's now a joy to drive.

Tires were just what I needed. I had heavy-duty truck tires on my Dodge before but did not really need them. These Bridgestone tires are just what I was looking for the 80000 mile wear is nice. I have had them out in torrential downpours and they work great. These tires offer a great ride and are a quieter ride than my old tires. Very happy with these so far.

I have a 2005 Toyota 4Runner that has really low miles and is in exceptional condition, and so I wanted nothing but the best for it. I previously had a set of Bridgestone Alenzas on my last 4Runner and they were awesome. Smooth, tracked straight, great in rain, and incredible tire life. They were replaced by these which are supposed to be amazing but they're not. With these being more expensive than the top of the line Michelins I had high hopes. They perform like a low end tire with a high price tag. Terrible in the rain, balancing issues, the car won't track straight anymore and is all over the road. The only thing they have going for them is they're quiet. I wish I would've got something else. After spending nearly $1500 I now have to live with my car driving terribly, or fork out more money to replace these brand new tires with something else. I travel a lot and these tires make the car almost dangerous to drive at highway speeds. I constantly have to correct the steering wheel because it just follows the road. Do not buy! Most expensive means nothing!

I purchased these tires about 7 months ago for my Equinox. The tires ride very good and performed great in the winter months. The only issue I have is that they are very noisy (contrary to how they are advertised) especially on the highway. You almost have to talk over then. They would be fine on a work truck or all terrain but I don't like them on my passenger vehicle and would not recommend them for that. I wouldn't buy them again. They're a premium price for a sub-premium tire.

I replaced the OEM Continental tires with the Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra because this was Tire Rack's highest rated Bridgestone in my size, although it was not their top tire, and I already had Firestone's Lifetime Alignment on this vehicle. They matched Costco's installed price, also. One of the Continental tires had a belt break, and winter was just around the corner and tread was thin, so I replaced all four tires just before a 600-mile road trip from SC to VA. I've had Bridgestones before, and was never disappointed when I bought a highly rated tire. The first thing I noticed was the effortless steering, like the front tires were on ice. I don't know if that's good or bad. On the Interstate, the tires soaked up minor bumps like they weren't there --- the bumps didn't make it into the car, which the passengers appreciated. Is this because of fresh rubber or a tire characteristic --- time will tell? Concrete pavement separators, bridge entries and exits, and pavement repair bumps disappeared as-if I had new shocks. And road noise from tires vanished. We have lots of stretches of some very noisy pavement, but you wouldn't know it with these tires. Again, is it the tire or simply fresh rubber? As the driver, I really appreciated this. I have TPM and the pressure never wavered. I drive on curvy roads, faster than I care to admit, but these tires didn't squeal or slip. We have not had winter yet, so I can't report on that, but if the tire performance so far is any indication, I've got a real winner of a tire.

My Continental Tires were at the end of their 60k life, so I shopped for Firestone LE3s but -- thanks to a promotion -- bought the Bridgestone Alenza, instead. I immediately noticed a difference in road comfort and noise reduction over the same route I have traveled for almost 20 years (including 15 of those on LE2s).

These new tires provide for an amazing ride. Super quiet and very comfortable. I've been a Bridgestone customer for the last 21 years. You would always find Bridgestone Duelers on my vehicles. But that I transitioned to Alenza there is no looking back. These tires are perfect, especially when I drive on the highway. Super quiet and comfortable.

Lots of potholes in RI and these tires increased the ride quality of our Wrangler Sahara Unlimited immeasurably. They do everything well, but their ride quality combination of comfort and quietness are so superior, we just bought a pair for our 2012 BMW X5 35d! These are the best riding tires we have ever owned and I may not wait for my run flats to wear out before I have a pair mounted on our 2020 X5 M5Oi.

Bought these tires around 7200 miles ago. so still new. But I have had other Bridgestone tires and have success with them. So I bought these. I live in Wisconsin and winter is coming so I wanted a tire that can handle the snow and slippery conditions. I have not yet been able to try in winter conditions. But I am so impressed by their traction in heavy rain weather. The last tires I had hydro plained real bad in wet weather not even heavy rain. so extremely happy so far.

This tire is on a 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The vehicle is driven by my wife and our residence is in a mountain area that can receive a great deal of snow, The tires were recently installed and my wife was very pleased with the traction and comfort of the new tires. The Alenza AS Ultra replaced an OEM set of Bridgestone on the Jeep. This new Alenza tire is a big improvement over the previous Bridgestone tire.
