Game Changer!

A Minnesota resident, today I had the opportunity to experience the Weatherpeak in 5 inches of snow and icy conditions and they performed fabulously. My 2005 Thunderbird has rear wheel drive with positraction. By way of background, I have used Blizzaks and Michelin Ice-2 Winter tires in the past. One of the issues was swapping the winter tire and summer tires which can be pricey regardless if you invest in extra wheels. So I was interested in the Weatherpeaks because of the year round capabilities. So now I have experienced their impressive winter performance! Looking forward to summer driving.

Great tires

I have this style tires on 2 vehicles. One on 09 TSX and 09 Prius. Handles great in rain and puddles. No issues in snow even slushy snow. Grips and go. I will definitely buy this for all new vehicles. I will definitely buy again. Road noise yes, some.

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.

A Great All Season Choice

So far the WeatherPeak's have met or exceeded my expectations! I swapped out the stock Yokohamas immediately on my brand new Subaru as I could tell they just wouldn't survive a Minnesota winter. I commute 100 miles a day on a sketchy stretch of highway that frequently produces blizzard like conditions. I needed a tire that would perform well not only on ice & snow but also on dry pavement during the summer months. I also needed a tire that was quiet, comfortable, durable, handled well and provided good gas mileage. The WeatherPeak's checked all the boxes and I'm very happy with my buying decision. I not sure about the durability as I've only put about 1000 miles on them to date, with a 70,000 mile warranty I'm assuming they'll hold up.

Great traction but loud

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.

Great traction, short life

These tires have amazing wet hydroplaning resistance and snow traction. When driving in a Portland, Oregon snowstorm with 10 inches of snow earlier this year I was the only car that seemed to be able to drive in the snow. Unfortunately after 18,000 miles these tires were down to 3/32nd's despite having them inflated to 40psi front/38psi rear (2 psi above factory spec). Filed a warranty claim and switched to the Michelin Defenders.

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 for winter driving

These were great for winter driving. Overall they worked pretty well for normal driving as well. I'm not sure if I had a defective set, but around the 15,000 mile mark the tread had worn down to 2/32. Thankfully the tire place I go to honored the warranty of the tire. Overall the driving experience was great, but the durability was subpar at best.

Pleasantly surprised

Firestone store manager recommended these as I drive around 60k per year and value long tread life, a quiet ride and some winter (Ice and Snow) capability. I was astonished at how quiet they are especially considering how well siped they are for wet / winter traction. So far we've had little rain much less any winter weather but I've put over 4,000 miles on them in the less than 1 month that I've had them and I'm really pleased. The couple of times I've driven on wet roads with them, they stuck like glue. Wife said "look, dad got some new mudgrips" when she first saw them. Well, I did a little off-roading too and they did well. My Cherokee is no mudder but not a mall crawler either. Good Job Bridgestone! I'd highly recommend these. Only dow side is they are a bit firmer than the Firestone Destinations the Jeep came with OEM and my fuel mileage has suffered a bit (1-2 MPG) but that's to be expected going from tires with 73,000+ miles on them to brand new ones. They are getting about the same as the old tires did when they were new.
