Great traction exceptionally noisy

These tires have great points and awful points. The good: traction on these tires are fantastic. Amazing stopping distance in wet and dry weather. Also, if you enjoy feeling the road, you will like these tires, you can feel the difference very clearly of different roads. The bad: you can feel everything with these tires, they are only a smooth/comfortable ride on fresh asphalt, anything other than that you can feel everything through the car and in some instances hear it. My tires also hit a resonance frequency at exactly 43 mph, and they hum exceptionally loud at that speed and vibrate the seats, building from 40 and gone by 45 on most road types. I have had the tires balanced 3 times and the alignment checked, everyone claims it is absolutely the tires causing it. If you want great traction and detailed feeling of all road types these tires are for you. If you want a smooth and quiet ride, my preference, stay very far away from these tires. My biggest annoyance with it is that the rating say comfort should be high,and it absolutely is not.

Didn't last 15k miles!

Very disappointed with these tires. This was my first time buying Bridgestone. They had great reviews so I bought them for my wife's Tiguan. Just took the car in today and all 4 needed to be replaced (they were at 1/32 or 2/32). The rears lasted 15k miles, the fronts only lasted 10k miles. The guys at Americas Tire said they've never seen a tire wear this fast and have such poor durability. My wife doesn't drive aggressively and the tires are supposed to last for 80k miles so 10k is ridiculous. The warranty covered some of the early wear but not one of the tires because the metal mesh was showing. This makes no sense. If the tire is so worn down after 10k miles, why does the warranty not cover it? So, after paying over $1000 for these tires last year, I just had to buy new tires again. And, I had to pay for installation again which the warranty obviously doesn't cover. Needless to say I won't be buying Bridgestone again and recommend that others stay away from these tires despite the ok reviews. For the premium cost, I think it's unreasonable to have a tire last 10-15k miles and the warranty doesn't cover what it should.

So far these tires are great

I can't really give a totally fair review but they appear to have a good aggressive tread design with plenty of sipping which should be good for winter and ice driving. We have put on about 350 miles on the tires so far and they ride very well, grip well and are quieter than the original equipment tires. There is a bit of oversteer with these tires that is slightly noticeable compared to the original probably due to their increased grip. Both I and my wife feel comfortable with them so far.

Travel RN

I put a great deal of miles on my car daily, it is so important to feel safe in any kind of weather. Bridgestone has always been the first choice of tire for my family for many years. City, rural, as well as any kind of weather ,Bridgestone has never let us down.

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.

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.

Good Tire but low Tire life

These tires are amazing in the rain, which I was looking for as I live in Los Angeles, and we sometimes get quite some water. I drive on the highway often and need something that can cut through the water, not hydroplane. These tires are perfect for that as I can comfortably go 80+ in the rain. The only downside is that I've only driven these tires for 25,000 miles and both front tires are wearing heavily in the center. These are rated at 70k and its looking like they will need to replaced soon

Replaced worn Michallens

I had done the research on various brands for my vehicle. These were the winners after my research. Took a 500 mile trip days later and the ride and handling were wonderful. Road noise barely noticeable. Wet road handling great! All around great purchase!

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.

AWFUL TIRES - NOT SATISFIED

I purchased 4 new Weathertek tires upon recommendations from online reviews from different sources. I only got 17,786 miles, I have bald patterns throughout the center tread, and had to purchase new tires in order for the car to be inspected. These tires are marketed to last 70,000 miles, minimum.
