Just purchased last month

The Weatherpeak tires were a very nice smooth ride and quite. Will see how they do the winter here in SD. Roy was great and seemed very honest and was able to answer all me questions, made me very comfortable. The only issues I have with Firestone is I had to drive 8 hours round trip not including the time at the shop. Looking like I will be paying cash from now on while I am living here in Mobridge, SD. We need more firestone shops a lot closer to Mobridge, SD. Also it would be nice if Firestone would work with local shops here and in smaller towns. The closest shop for me was in Rapid City, SD, so with that said I most likely will not be going to Rapid, City to firestone as it is an all day drive. Just wish the Firestone allow us to use our card for local shops like the CFNA card does with local shops here in Mobridge, SD. Other than this big issue; I am happy with my new tires.

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!

Perfect Upgrade to All Season

These are our first new set of tires to replace original factory tires. We travel from NM to WY quite a bit, and the weather is ever changing. These were smoother, quieter, and sliced through the rain VERY well. Feel much safer with these tires. Glad I spent the extra money to upgrade!

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.

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.

Wobbles while driving

I have driven on brandnew country road blacktop road and expressway. 25mph - 75 mph THe car wobbles realy bad at low and high speed. I did NOT have this problem before purchase of the new tires. My husband bought Bridgestone last month for his JEEP and we thought they would be good fit for my Subaru. Not so, I need to return it to the dealer, waste time and headache to WHY this is happening. Very Fratrated with the 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.

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.

True year round performer

These tires have rock solid traction in all weather conditions. In rain has never hydroplaned once. Here in Portland, Oregon on Feb 22, 2023 we had 10 inches of snow. Couldn't believe how many stuck cars I drove by and I was driving a FWD vehicle. Saw Tesla's, a Jeep and even Subaru's stuck in the snow and I drove right past them! I've never tried the Blizzak winter tires, but I'm kind of wondering who needs those? The only issue I've faced with these tires is fuel economy. My gas mileage took a 5-7mpg hit until these tires reached 7/32. Now it is back to normal. I'm getting around 55mpg in mixed city/highway driving.

Bridgestone Weatherpeak Tires

Purchased these tires for my daughter's car. Was searching for tires that perform well in rain and snow. Both were rated in the high category for these conditions. I like the aggressive tread design, yet they are quiet. So far I'm pleased with my purchase.
