These tires have great points and awful points. The good: traction on these tires are fantastic. Amazing stopping distance in wet and dry weather. Also, if you enjoy feeling the road, you will like these tires, you can feel the difference very clearly of different roads. The bad: you can feel everything with these tires, they are only a smooth/comfortable ride on fresh asphalt, anything other than that you can feel everything through the car and in some instances hear it. My tires also hit a resonance frequency at exactly 43 mph, and they hum exceptionally loud at that speed and vibrate the seats, building from 40 and gone by 45 on most road types. I have had the tires balanced 3 times and the alignment checked, everyone claims it is absolutely the tires causing it. If you want great traction and detailed feeling of all road types these tires are for you. If you want a smooth and quiet ride, my preference, stay very far away from these tires. My biggest annoyance with it is that the rating say comfort should be high,and it absolutely is not.

I had Bridgestone Weatherpeak tires installed on my Subaru. Since then we have only had fair weather, dry road driving conditions. I've been on city streets and state highways at speeds between 25-65 mph. So far the tires have been great. I'm anxious to see how they perform when winter driving conditions arrive. I haven't compared mpg with my old tires yet, but I will soon.

Replaced the Firestone FT140s that came from the factory at 42k miles. They gave a harsh ride with lousy snow traction and hydroplaning on wet roads. I love everything about these 215R50-17 Weatherpeak tires except my highway mileage has dropped from 43mpg to 37mpg. Haven't tried them in snow/ice yet, but they are incredible in heavy rain with standing water. Quiet, great feel, and they absorb bumps well. Fingers crossed that they last as well as the warranty indicates.

Love my new Bridgestone Weather Peak tires. Even though I purchased them in September I feel a difference on the road. I'm getting a smoother and quiet ride performance. Great value for a great tire. With an affordable alignment I will trust these tires to last 70,000 miles. Ole man winter bring it on. I'm ready!

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.

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!

Purchased these tires for my daughter's car. Was searching for tires that perform well in rain and snow. Both were rated in the high category for these conditions. I like the aggressive tread design, yet they are quiet. So far I'm pleased with my purchase.

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.

I've sold these tires ever since they came out. Always had fantastic customer satisfaction. I finally put them on my vehicle because of my experiences selling them. They preform practically like a blizzak full snow tire. Yet they can be ran all year long and have a mileage warranty to boot!!! That is unheard of!!! It's the best of both worlds. You ge the majority of people's diving with every day mileage. Plus when the weather hits they preform just as good as a tires specially designed for those conditions. Also, wet performance is incredible! Night and day difference from previous Firehawks I had... Very satisfied customer. If your one the fence and drive in any sort of wet or freezing conditions these are your tires!

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.
