Snowpocalypse, snow problem

Back in the blizzard of'24, the East TN region ground to a halt as Jack Frost laid down a people's elbow of snow and ice on the unsuspecting folks there. Over night, the green mountains and valleys were placed in the death grip of Queen Elsa's wrath. Normally , my rear wheel drive chariot would have been a cocooned in the garage, more useless than a horse in the ocean. Fortuitously, I purchased these car kicks and the snowy skies parted, the snow and ice disappeared from the roads, and I surmounted every steep road and driveway back home. With my previous wheel prisons, I'd slide when a grasshopper farted, but no longer am I confined by the southeastern snow yeti. Thank you Bridgestone!

Smooth

Switched from pro contact by continental to these, not sure if it was because my old tires were worn (unevenly) but turning is so much easier in these. Maybe it's because they are brand new, it's taking some getting used to. Slight rumble when driving above 40mph. But continentals did that too. Nothing major. Excited to see how they do in the rain/snow.

Just purchased last month

The Weatherpeak tires were a very nice smooth ride and quite. Will see how they do the winter here in SD. Roy was great and seemed very honest and was able to answer all me questions, made me very comfortable. The only issues I have with Firestone is I had to drive 8 hours round trip not including the time at the shop. Looking like I will be paying cash from now on while I am living here in Mobridge, SD. We need more firestone shops a lot closer to Mobridge, SD. Also it would be nice if Firestone would work with local shops here and in smaller towns. The closest shop for me was in Rapid City, SD, so with that said I most likely will not be going to Rapid, City to firestone as it is an all day drive. Just wish the Firestone allow us to use our card for local shops like the CFNA card does with local shops here in Mobridge, SD. Other than this big issue; I am happy with my new tires.

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.

What an amazing tire! So far AWESOME

These replaced my OEM HONDA DUELER H/P SPORT AS 245/60/18 tires! These new tires I choose over the Firestone counterpart for the better thread! Was I right on that! Very impressive performance so far! Very nice handling in our wet weather! Low on noise is other big thing! Smoother ride as well! Highly impressed and will be recommending these for Northern New England weather types!

WEATHERPEAK BL 235/50R18 97V 70,000 Mile Limited

I received great service from my initial appointment to select tires until I drove out of the shop. 5 Sterling made sure the correct manufactures recommended tire size was order. He noticed that the last time I had my tires replaced the installer replaced my tires with the wrong size tires.

Great tire - with some caveats

While I loved the tires performance in the wet/dry/snow conditions, the durability of the tire leaves a LOT to be desired. I had the tires for all of about 21k miles, and already my tire shop advised that I replace them due to the treadwear on the tire rapidly going down fast. I rotated them as recommended (every 6k miles), and do not drive in any adverse road conditions, and rarely exceed 75MPH. Dry traction? Fabulous. Wet? Amazing. Snow? Fantastic. Durability? TERRIBLE. Especially considering I spent 200/tire, I expected the tires to at least last 40k miles, if not more -- given that these are reputed by Bridgestone to be 75k mile treadwear tires. Add that it is nearly impossible in my area to find a like replacement (almost all the shops didn't have this tire in stock), I went and did a set of Michelin Cross Climate as the replacement for these. Unfortunate, as these are really good performing tires when they aren't wearing out quickly.

Replaced worn Michallens

I had done the research on various brands for my vehicle. These were the winners after my research. Took a 500 mile trip days later and the ride and handling were wonderful. Road noise barely noticeable. Wet road handling great! All around great purchase!

Most Appropriate Tires for my Vehicle & Driving Needs

I've now had this set of tires for 16 days and I've already driven 182 miles on it. An alignment was performed after the tires were installed. The combination of the new tires and the alignment made a nice improvement in ride quality. I'm quite pleased with these tires so far. They are much more suitable for my situation than the original equipment Sport tires. I don't need tires rated for 149 mph. The 130 mph rating on these WeatherPeak tires is plenty for me. I rarely reach 75 mph. Maybe I've touched 182 a couple times during passing. I can't imagine needing to go 90. I look forward to enjoying better Fuel Economy, Ride Comfort, Tread Life, and Snow and Ice Performance than the original Sport tires. I'm willing to trade off a little steering precision and a lot of high speed capability

So far these tires are great

I can't really give a totally fair review but they appear to have a good aggressive tread design with plenty of sipping which should be good for winter and ice driving. We have put on about 350 miles on the tires so far and they ride very well, grip well and are quieter than the original equipment tires. There is a bit of oversteer with these tires that is slightly noticeable compared to the original probably due to their increased grip. Both I and my wife feel comfortable with them so far.
