Switched from pro contact by continental to these, not sure if it was because my old tires were worn (unevenly) but turning is so much easier in these. Maybe it's because they are brand new, it's taking some getting used to. Slight rumble when driving above 40mph. But continentals did that too. Nothing major. Excited to see how they do in the rain/snow.

Already left a review for other car. Bought two sets. My new favorite all-season tire. Make sure they have plenty of air - like 40 pounds or they may flat-spot when parked and cause car to shake as if tires are out of balance. Some have complained of noise. I'm not noticing these tires being at all noisy vs the dozens of other sets I have driven on. This is a new offering but I'm fully expecting the performance of these to trounce the current category leader which is Michelin CrossClimate2.

After researching the 3 peak mountain snow rated tires Michelin (CrossClimate 2), BFGoodrich (Advantage T/A Sport LT), and Bridgestone Weatherpeaks we decided on the Bridgestones. After our first set failed to balance correctly, 2 separate tire shops performed a road force balance showing that 3 out of 4 tires were out of round. They replaced them with 4 new ones and found that these were still out of round. Our Honda Odyssey vibrates at 60-70mph, which was not present on the OEM Bridgestone Turanzas these replaced. Very disappointed and will be going with one of the other brands when it comes time to replace.

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.

Nice tire but make sure that they road force balance them. I've had 2 vehicles for these tires. Both had high (bad) road force values but my local Firestone guy made good on them all and replaced the bad ones right away. So now we have very smooth, great riding tires on my wife's Q5 and my sons Sante Fe. I have firestone LE2s on my Nissan Frontier, my daughter's Lexus ES330 has Firestone weather grips and my other sons Crown Vic had firestone PVS's have to say I am a Bridgestone/Firestone fan.

We have about 1500 miles on these tires so it's early to comment on durability. With respect to driving conditions the tires perform well in dry, rain , slippery and snow covered conditions (8 inches). Definitely would recommend the tires. Excellent warranty 70,000 miles!

Had to have tire replaced with less than 250 miles on it due to sidewall bubble. I'm 71 years old and have owned hundreds of tires, and never had this happen before. I think it may have been over-inflated by Firestone dealer where I purchased. Reason I suspect this is because I checked replacement tire after I got home and it had 40 pounds of air. (I check after car was parked in the shade for five hours.)

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.

Replaced the Firestone FT140s that came from the factory at 42k miles. They gave a harsh ride with lousy snow traction and hydroplaning on wet roads. I love everything about these 215R50-17 Weatherpeak tires except my highway mileage has dropped from 43mpg to 37mpg. Haven't tried them in snow/ice yet, but they are incredible in heavy rain with standing water. Quiet, great feel, and they absorb bumps well. Fingers crossed that they last as well as the warranty indicates.

So far I am very happy with the Weatherpeak tires for the main reason I purchased them, they give me a very quiet ride and also they seem to handle well on rainy days.
