READ THIS REVIEW **FIRST**

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.

Weathergrip 225/65/17

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.

Kinda disappointed

Replaced my Firestone All season tires which were great, with weathergrip Firestone tires. Terrible mistake. May return due to noise, vibration slight. And cost more than the all season Firestone which were great. These are great in rain but driving on sunny day Terrible. These are horrible in every way except they are great in the rain. I have 90 days and am trying to get use to These new set but not sure if I will keep or return and get the all season I had before.

A good tire with reasonable price

I just purchased 4 brand new Weather grip by Firestone tires and happy with that. In the past 2 weeks that the tires are replaced, I had no problem with them. My previous tires were Michelin which I paid too much and didn't have a long life. I think it's too soon to have a right judgment about my new tires but so far, so good!!!

Great Tire

The WeatherGripper is a great all-season tire. I have purchased three full sets over the past seven years and no matter what the Weather has been there's never been a time I didn't feel safe and in control.

Great tires, a little noisy

The tires make a light higher pitch whine while driving at maderate to faster speeds. I can't say how long they will last...once i get to that mileage, they probably won't make the tire anymore.

Very Good Choice

I recently purchased these tires for the upcoming winter storms. They are a bit noisy on concrete roads but not overwhelming. They handle well on dry roads and really evacuate the water or rainy roads. I would recommend these to anyone.
