I've used Firestone tires on this car the last 2 or 3 sets. I put a LOT of miles on it driving Uber\Lyft. These are the best price for good quality tires I could find. The extra grip tread on this set has already impressed me by climbing up some ridiculously steep driveways and taking unexpected curves with no slipping. I'm a fan of Firestone products AND their professional full service garages. ~R.

I changed the original from Continental brand all season tires to these, on a company van. The originals were good overall. In fact, I've tried many brands and found Continental to be the most dependable and predictable tire in any weather; even with my "extreme" driving style. There are other brands out there which offer more grip on dry roads but wear out faster. There are other brands still that feel sportier when changing lanes or on twisty roads but they are less predictable in extreme braking or on ice/ snow/ rain etc. Believe me when I say this; Continental high performance all seasons are the BEST in my book because regardless of driving conditions... Not just because they grip hard in curves and lose traction at the itmost limits in a gradual and communicate manner.. but because I know what to expect from Contis if I need to react to emergency situations in city/ interstate traffic or sudden obstacles on the backroads in the woods. Rain or shine (and even in mild snow) Continentals get you home safe; and they even happen to last long and be fairly quiet too. I know what you're thinking...(isn't this a review for the Bridgestone?) Well yes. But I need to establish what MY criteria are when reviewing tires and make it clear I'm not ordinarily inclined to buy anything other than Continental. But that being said, this Bridgestone was all I could get to replace the worn out tires on my van and I need to admit, I was very impressed. The first thing I noticed is that the Bridgestone had a wider track than the Continentals they replaced. The traction was equally good in rain and snow and the grip was surprisingly good in dry weather too. Strangely enough, the Bridgestone was actually dramatically smoother and quieter going down the highway and when hitting potholes and expansion strips on the highway it no longer felt like a bone jarring slam that shuddered through the whole frame of the van. But here's my point; I love Continental. Generally they're awesome. But I'm thinking that ANY type tires, as they are, will tend to get louder and be rougher on the road than new ones. So YOU have to temper your opion when reading reviews and take everything with a grain of salt. Another thing; different cars get along differently with a given type of tire compared to another. So when reading reviews its good to look for people who are driving the same car or at least have the same preferences/priorities in tire requirements when discussing their reviews. NEVER judge a tire just on the numerical score... But back to the review. I consider myself a car-person and like to drive "swiftly" and still prefer the Continentals in any weather on any car. BUT... This Bridgestone Weatherbeater is one seriously good tire. (That being said, I've only driven about 5000 miles on them so you'll need to ask somebody else if they STAY good for 40k miles or however long they're sup to last. Hope this review helps you find the tire that fits your needs best.

We have gotten over 2 ft. of snow this weekend. When I got caught out in part of it. I was very happy with my new tires. I didn't slide, I didn't spin, they worked like I was hoping they would. Other cars were struggling, but I wasn't. I am also happy with how much quieter they are on dry roads compared to what I had on prior. Now if they last as long as they should, I will be one super pleased customer.

Bought these for my Subie. I live in Oklahoma and we get all kinds of crazy weather. Not the snow that some get but we almost always get a good shellacking before we get out few inches of snow. These did just fine for my wife and I. And when we get a good Okie tornado storm blow through we can get several inches of rain in a very very short time. Not sure if anyone has ever used the Oklahoma Highway/street systems but lets just say that they would have to work pretty hard to make it up to sucking level! These tires never failed or let me down. And a good old Okie summer day can see a temp of 110 so you can only imagine the street temp... again, never failed me in the least. Soooo..... are these the best, maybe not, But I've not found anything that I like more. But more importantly... these mounted on my sure footed Subaru make for a safe drive. That peace of mind when my wife is driving the car is well worth the price of the tire!!

Only put on a couple of thousand Km so far and really enjoying a family quiet and comfortable ride. Really performs well on wet pavement. Very happy will the purchase. Thanks to Kal tire for helping me choose the right set of tires for my driving needs. Dave

First winter, these tires were amazing. After 29000 miles on them, they are worn out . They are incredibly noisy and don't provide very good traction anymore. I tried processing a claim with firestone about the premature wear. Their response was too bad, 3/32 is typical wear and not excessive. I thought that when I purchased a 65,000 mile tire, I would at least get 40000 out of them. Not with Firestone. I will now shop for a different brand of tires. I already purchase a new set of tires for our Highlander and they weren't Firestone.

Just purchased our second set of these tires for our minivan. The first set lasted 3 years and approx 60K. We love the traction in the snow and rain and they are quiet on the road. Lasted longer than I expected. We have been very happy with these tires.

These tires were recommended to me by my local dealer. I am so far pleased. The tires are a little noisy(Barely noticable) as I was told. The ride and handling is excelent. As it is Summer I have yet to drive them in any adverse weather. I purchased them because I was told that they are better than the LE in the Snow. I am looking forward to trying them out.

I have purchased this tire twice. My wife loves them and I love that I can depend on them to get her to and from work. We drive 110 miles round trip every working day and it is a relief for me that she has tires on her vehicle that we can depend on. We don't work the same hours so both of our vehicles are on the road all of the time. We have not had an ounce of trouble with these tires. Thank you Firestone!!!

Several hundred miles in the upper peninsula snow and ice they handle well , they look like snow tires but their not, so they'll be good longevity 65,000 mile warranty. Put a weather guard and a Firestone winter tire side by side there isn't a lot of difference!
