Incredible performance

I've sold these tires ever since they came out. Always had fantastic customer satisfaction. I finally put them on my vehicle because of my experiences selling them. They preform practically like a blizzak full snow tire. Yet they can be ran all year long and have a mileage warranty to boot!!! That is unheard of!!! It's the best of both worlds. You ge the majority of people's diving with every day mileage. Plus when the weather hits they preform just as good as a tires specially designed for those conditions. Also, wet performance is incredible! Night and day difference from previous Firehawks I had... Very satisfied customer. If your one the fence and drive in any sort of wet or freezing conditions these are your tires!

Awful Tires - DO NOT BUY!!!!

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.

Good Set Of All Season Tires!

The original tires on my 2020 Chevy Blazer were absolutely terrible. Living in Michigan, I needed a set of tires that would be decent in snow and icy conditions. I just got these today, so time will tell. They are already a major improvement over the original tires.

All season

I just bought these tires so I can't comment on durability personally, but the handling is terrific,.the ride very quiet and the tread looks and feels solid. On durability I went with good wear on my Bridgestone Potenzas holding well on another of my vehicles.

Most Appropriate Tires for my Vehicle & Driving Needs

I've now had this set of tires for 16 days and I've already driven 182 miles on it. An alignment was performed after the tires were installed. The combination of the new tires and the alignment made a nice improvement in ride quality. I'm quite pleased with these tires so far. They are much more suitable for my situation than the original equipment Sport tires. I don't need tires rated for 149 mph. The 130 mph rating on these WeatherPeak tires is plenty for me. I rarely reach 75 mph. Maybe I've touched 182 a couple times during passing. I can't imagine needing to go 90. I look forward to enjoying better Fuel Economy, Ride Comfort, Tread Life, and Snow and Ice Performance than the original Sport tires. I'm willing to trade off a little steering precision and a lot of high speed capability

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.

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.

Weather Peak

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.

Didn't last a year.

I purchased 4 new tires upon the recommendation of the garage I go to. 11 months later, after only **14,000 miles**, I have bald patterns throughout the tread, and will require new tires heading in to the Midwest winter. These tires are marketed to last 70,000 miles, minimum. And because my husband is able to do some mechanical maintenance on my car and has for years all rotations and mechanical fixes aren't documented at a garage - so my warranty is null and void. How frustrating! My Dad sold Bridgestone tires for 40+ years before retiring and when he looked at them this weekend he was very disappointed. So. Frustrated.

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.
