Awful Tires - DO NOT BUY!!!!

Purchased a brand new set through Town Fair Tire, Manchester, NH. Had mounted on my wife's minivan (light driving) and they only lasted ONE WINTER SEASON - 17 months! I purchased a 'meatier' all-season tread in hopes of a tire that would work very well in the winter snow as well as be durable. I expressed my fear to the manager at TFT when I picked them up and they assured that Bridgestone would replace them if they wore prematurely. Well, I couldn't be more disappointed in Bridgestone or Town Fair Tire. These tires ARE CRAP! They may work as winter tires that are swapped on in the colder months, but DO NOT USE IN SUMMER. They will NOT LAST. Just awful.

Bought again

I previously had Bridgestone Weather Grip tires, they worked well I all conditions and very well in snow. I needed new tires, so I upgraded to the higher life mileage Bridgestone Weather Peak as they seem better. Still have a few months to try them in the snow, but I'm confident they will perform well.

Great all around tire

I bought this tire for all season driving. I had had Michelin on my car for the last three sets of tires. I bought these tires because I already had them on two other vehicles. I cannot believe how much better these tires perform in curves and has enhanced handling of the car. I have much better traction in the rain. I have not had them long enough to have tried them on snow or ice on this car. My car being rear wheel drive we will see this winter. Overall, I am really pleased with these tires and would buy them again.

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

Didn't last 15k miles!

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.

EXCELLENT!

January 13,2023 ( heavy snow) Wisconsin. Second winter with these tires, these perform so well in snow and ice it's unbelievable. Also, super confidence inspiring in the rain and dry. No discernible difference in fuel economy either. I'm getting my appropriate fuel economy too. 2017, Toyota Camry (FWD).

Wearing amazing

I have put over 40k miles on these tires and they are at about half tread. i do rotate them every 5k miles. I drive 120 miles a day total for work mainly highway. i live in central indiana and these have played in the whiteout conditions more than once on my 60 mile commute up north for work. no issues at all. people need to stop leaving bad reviews saying they wear fast. FIX YOUR CARS. tires don't chew themselves it's the vehicle parts, alignment, inflation, or balance that destroys them. if all of your bases are covered there they should last well over 60k miles. love them and i plan to get another set as soon as these are ready to be changed.

Good Tire but low Tire life

These tires are amazing in the rain, which I was looking for as I live in Los Angeles, and we sometimes get quite some water. I drive on the highway often and need something that can cut through the water, not hydroplane. These tires are perfect for that as I can comfortably go 80+ in the rain. The only downside is that I've only driven these tires for 25,000 miles and both front tires are wearing heavily in the center. These are rated at 70k and its looking like they will need to replaced soon

Perfect Upgrade to All Season

These are our first new set of tires to replace original factory tires. We travel from NM to WY quite a bit, and the weather is ever changing. These were smoother, quieter, and sliced through the rain VERY well. Feel much safer with these tires. Glad I spent the extra money to upgrade!
