The Alenza AS Ultra is the WORST tire I have ever had on a vehicle. I have 27,042 on my Silverado and these tires already have the wire showing. It's a joke to advertise a tire that's supposed to have an extended life, and they last 1/2 the expectancy. When I contacted Bridgestone about the issue I was blown off and they had no interest to help me at all. I 100% DO NOT recommend any Bridgestone tire as you'll find yourself extremely disappointed. Keep in mind, the miles I put on these tires is highway and country roads.

I have a 2005 Toyota 4Runner that has really low miles and is in exceptional condition, and so I wanted nothing but the best for it. I previously had a set of Bridgestone Alenzas on my last 4Runner and they were awesome. Smooth, tracked straight, great in rain, and incredible tire life. They were replaced by these which are supposed to be amazing but they're not. With these being more expensive than the top of the line Michelins I had high hopes. They perform like a low end tire with a high price tag. Terrible in the rain, balancing issues, the car won't track straight anymore and is all over the road. The only thing they have going for them is they're quiet. I wish I would've got something else. After spending nearly $1500 I now have to live with my car driving terribly, or fork out more money to replace these brand new tires with something else. I travel a lot and these tires make the car almost dangerous to drive at highway speeds. I constantly have to correct the steering wheel because it just follows the road. Do not buy! Most expensive means nothing!

My RAM 1500 came with the older version of these tires that had a 40,000 mile warranty. At 30,000 they had strange wear patterns on three of the four tires even though they had been rotated multiple times, correct pressure maintained, and NO alignment issues. Got a 25% reduction is new set of four due to prorated mileage failure and really loved the new ones at first. Now with only 25,000 miles on them it is clear they won't make it to 50,000 let alone 70,000 or 80,000 or whatever they claim. Bigger problem is today pulling out of driveway the passenger front tire blew out. I did not hit anything, there was no road hazard, the sidewall simply failed going over the 1" curb from my driveway to the street. Thank God I was not driving down the highway with my three kids in the car. I am filing a report with NTSB to see if their are manufacturing problems reported with these tires as I do not feel safe keeping them on my truck. The dealer insists a tire cannot simply blow out and I must have hit something but the RAM Roadside tech said it was clearly a sidewall band problem and it was obvious I hit nothing, and there was nothing in the road or stuck in the tire.

Purchased these tires because of all the positive accolades but this is what I found out after two weeks: The ride comfort and noise were just okay compared to the OEM tires on my Volvo. The mpg was reduced by 3.2 mpg over the OEM tires. However, the worse thing is that these tires tramline terrible on grooved concrete which is unavoidable in my area. I have driven over 60 years now and never saw/felt something this bad = even my mud/snow tires on my truck do not do this. I returned the vehicle to the local Firestone dealer and the manager drove the vehicle to see. His comment was "terrible tires". Anyway, I hate returning anything but these tires are so scary to drive on that I had to. Thank goodness that the dealer totally agreed and returned all my money. Firestone needs to do a lot better and warn people about this or there will be accidents due to these tires.

These tires are rated for 80,000 miles. At 30,000 the belts started to separate, at 31,000 rubber started to peal off. Car dealers would not help said original tires don't have a mileage warranty...Bridgestone said the same thing. Poor quality tire, would not recommend.

These Particular tires are very durable and at the same time the quite ride is awesome. This tire is the type of Product you would want to have on any of your Vehicles particularly for the quality, durability, comfort, quite ride, and most definitely for the Performance you'll immediately notice with out a doubt. This is a well thought out yet overall tire that you'll come to agree that it's the only type of tire that you would recommend, to family and friends alike for any Vehicle that they own.

Had these 295-40-21 Alenza As Ultra installed on my 2019 GLS 550 in July, immediate shakes. After 8000 miles, 3 balance attempts, roadforce and a bunch of money spent at 2 different shops I gave up and trading my car in. These do not ride well and have an inherent shake in the vehicle, very annoying. The ride is rough, should have stuck with the michelins I had before.

These tires replaced the OE Dueler H/L Alenza on my Tundra. So far, I have about 500 miles on them. The ride is better, and the new tires seem to have better grip in dry and rain than the old tires. However, they are louder, especially in the 35-50 mph range. Once up to 60 or so mph, they aren't singing quite as loudly. I specifically sought out tires that were not AT (all terrain) because I didn't want to hear a lot of tire noise. Maybe its due to the width (275/55R20)? Not sure. So if you want a really quiet tire, the Alenza AS Ultra is probably not it. I know Bridgestone makes an excellent tire, and I like that these tires are made in the USA, grip well, ride well, and hopefully function well for many miles as a good tire. But the noise is a put-off, and I just hope maybe it gets better after some more riding.

Great service from the crew at Somersworth NH Firestone Company Store. From the time leaving the store a noticeable improvement in handling and tracking. Quiet on dry pavement and the next day we had torrential downpours , they handled great in the rain at highway speeds.

So far very happy with purchase. Great riding tire in dry and wet conditions. Cannot comment yet on winter performance. Newly purchased and therefore wear is also unknown at this time. For the Lexus the tire has improved the ride and handling has been improved over the replaced tires. No regrets would buy again.
