EXCELLENT!

January 13,2023 ( heavy snow) Wisconsin. Second winter with these tires, these perform so well in snow and ice it's unbelievable. Also, super confidence inspiring in the rain and dry. No discernible difference in fuel economy either. I'm getting my appropriate fuel economy too. 2017, Toyota Camry (FWD).

2nd Replacement Set Still Out of Round

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.

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.

Guess you can't have everything...

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.

Very Nice Tire

We have driven on this tire for about 3,000 miles from Texas to Deep South Florida. It handles every bit as good as the EL440 that came stock on the car, but it does way better in the rain. I drove it going 65 through some well grooved roads on I-10 and I-75 in some heavy downpours. I never lost confidence, and the car never lost its grip on the road. Wet driving is an area I can definitely say this tire does great within. The MPG has picked up about 1/2 a mile per gallon as well. Anything helps these days!

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.

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.)

WEATHERPEAK BL 235/50R18 97V 70,000 Mile Limited

I received great service from my initial appointment to select tires until I drove out of the shop. 5 Sterling made sure the correct manufactures recommended tire size was order. He noticed that the last time I had my tires replaced the installer replaced my tires with the wrong size tires.

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.

Very satisfied....so far!

Quite, stable (they do "drift" on grooved concrete surfaces) but overall I am confident in their performance. Not yet winter tested but drove thru major rain storm on canyon roads and felt very secure. Very satisfied at this point of use!
