Terrible Treadlife

With an 80K treadwear rating this tire is the worst performing tire I've ever owned. Despite rotating the tires every 5 to 6K miles and keeping them properly inflated, they will not make 30K miles before requiring replacement. Traction and comfort are OK, but nothing special. Without question this will be my last set of Bridgestone tires.

Amazing

My truck rode like a truck prior to switching to these tires. My truck now rides like a Cadillac you don't feel the potholes or the ruffness of the road. I'm switching my SUV to these tires also. Little expensive at $250ish apiece, but you get what you pay for I guess

Quiet smooth ride

Bought these as recommended replacement for the duelers that came on truck. They seem great so far but, if you live in a state that has "grooved concrete" on freeway, know that these tires really grab those grooves causing an unstable feel which isn't fun at freeway speeds

nice looking tire

The tires are very nice looking however the ride is a little bumpy and I have a vibration in the steering wheel which I did not have before. I have taken the vehicle to the dealership and they looked at everything on the front end including an alignment and could find nothing wrong. I had them rebalance the tires and the vibration is still present. I can't put another set of tires on I spent over $1100.00 on this set and I'm sure they are not going to take them back and put on another set if they can't find anything wrong with them, so I guess I am stuck with these I don't know what else I could possibly do. Next oil change I am going to have them rotated and see if that gets rid of the problem and if it does one of those front tires has some kind of defect.

Very Disappointed

I purchased these tires to replace the set my vehicle came with. They are rated for 75000-80000 miles, which was a major factor when buying. 35000 miles later the tread is shot! I drive the speed limit and am not a reckless driver. It was a complete waste of money buying these horrible tires. I now switched to Goodyear, as I have had very good usage on my trucks. A much better ride, very quiet and a lot cheaper. I'll never waste my time or money on Bridgestone again.

Improved my love of my car

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.

Don't buy these Tires

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!

The Classic driving guy

These Particular tires are very durable and at the same time the quite ride is awesome. This tire is the type of Product you would want to have on any of your Vehicles particularly for the quality, durability, comfort, quite ride, and most definitely for the Performance you'll immediately notice with out a doubt. This is a well thought out yet overall tire that you'll come to agree that it's the only type of tire that you would recommend, to family and friends alike for any Vehicle that they own.

Sidewall blowout and tires wearing quickly

My RAM 1500 came with the older version of these tires that had a 40,000 mile warranty. At 30,000 they had strange wear patterns on three of the four tires even though they had been rotated multiple times, correct pressure maintained, and NO alignment issues. Got a 25% reduction is new set of four due to prorated mileage failure and really loved the new ones at first. Now with only 25,000 miles on them it is clear they won't make it to 50,000 let alone 70,000 or 80,000 or whatever they claim. Bigger problem is today pulling out of driveway the passenger front tire blew out. I did not hit anything, there was no road hazard, the sidewall simply failed going over the 1" curb from my driveway to the street. Thank God I was not driving down the highway with my three kids in the car. I am filing a report with NTSB to see if their are manufacturing problems reported with these tires as I do not feel safe keeping them on my truck. The dealer insists a tire cannot simply blow out and I must have hit something but the RAM Roadside tech said it was clearly a sidewall band problem and it was obvious I hit nothing, and there was nothing in the road or stuck in the tire.

Terrible tread life

BMW X7 comes with these and first set lasted only 23k miles whenI usually get 40k plus on prior X5 run flat low profile tires. Replacement set only last 11k miles of almost all highway driving - by far the worst tread life of any tire I've ever owned.
