New tires

I had Bridgestone Weatherpeak tires installed on my Subaru. Since then we have only had fair weather, dry road driving conditions. I've been on city streets and state highways at speeds between 25-65 mph. So far the tires have been great. I'm anxious to see how they perform when winter driving conditions arrive. I haven't compared mpg with my old tires yet, but I will soon.

More MPG and more comfort!

I love these tires! I had them on a previous Chrysler and learn what a great tires they were then and now I have a different Chrysler, that came with new michelins on it And of course I waited for them to run their course and bought these weather peak tires by Bridgestone and my gosh what a difference! My gas mileage has went up two miles per gallon and they're quieter and more comfortable than the Michelin tires were! I will always buy these weather peak tires!

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.

What an amazing tire! So far AWESOME

These replaced my OEM HONDA DUELER H/P SPORT AS 245/60/18 tires! These new tires I choose over the Firestone counterpart for the better thread! Was I right on that! Very impressive performance so far! Very nice handling in our wet weather! Low on noise is other big thing! Smoother ride as well! Highly impressed and will be recommending these for Northern New England weather types!

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.

Superb All Weather Tire

I left a review when I first purchased these tires and wanted to update now that I have 22000 miles on them driving in all 4 seasons. I'm still extremely happy with my choice after researching several all weather options. Living in Minnesota, snow and ice performance was my #1 priority and I was not disappointed! I actually drove through two blizzards and never felt uncomfortable in those conditions. I was also pleasantly surprised summer driving as they were very quiet, handled great and didn't hydroplane or slide in heavy downpours. Tread life is very good and they are wearing evenly. Gas mileage was about on par with the stock tires despite the softer compound and more aggressive tread, these are actually lighter in weight. I would definitely recommend and will purchase these again in the future!

New Tires But Great So Far

Replaced some excellent Continentals with these. Only have a few hundred miles on these and honestly I was concerned about the tread pattern maybe leaving a lot to be desired in dry conditions. So far, my concerns were unfounded. These have been very, very good.

Great tire - with some caveats

While I loved the tires performance in the wet/dry/snow conditions, the durability of the tire leaves a LOT to be desired. I had the tires for all of about 21k miles, and already my tire shop advised that I replace them due to the treadwear on the tire rapidly going down fast. I rotated them as recommended (every 6k miles), and do not drive in any adverse road conditions, and rarely exceed 75MPH. Dry traction? Fabulous. Wet? Amazing. Snow? Fantastic. Durability? TERRIBLE. Especially considering I spent 200/tire, I expected the tires to at least last 40k miles, if not more -- given that these are reputed by Bridgestone to be 75k mile treadwear tires. Add that it is nearly impossible in my area to find a like replacement (almost all the shops didn't have this tire in stock), I went and did a set of Michelin Cross Climate as the replacement for these. Unfortunate, as these are really good performing tires when they aren't wearing out quickly.

Not Sure About These Tires

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.)

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.
