Don't buy these Tires

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!

ALENZA AS ULTRA, early review

Only driven 300 miles on them but already can say handling is improved over the stock Michelins which only had 24000 miles on them. The are a little louder than the Michelins, but still vey good. Tried them on a little snow as I needed a better tire for weather conditions in Michigan as I deliver meals to elderly people and need to be safe, these seemed to did in well for an all season tire. So far happy.

Good Tire, Nowhere Near Warranty

Great tire for my minvan, quiet ride. Very comfortable for highway commuting and daily driving. Barely met half of the warranty amounts. Firestone will be paying out a fractioned prorated replacement for the tires based on the reduction, would get again. Trying out the WeatherPeaks next though to get a comparison between the two

Back with Bridgestone

I've been around the block with OEM tires on my 2014 Porsche Cayenne S as well as a 2013 Mercedes GLK 350 and sorry to Pirelli and Michelin but nothing compares to the immediate satisfaction of a smooth quiet ride of the new Alenza AS Ultra and with an 80K mileage warranty, I'll be reporting back for a long time. I had the Bridgestone Dueler H/L on a Mercedes ML350 and they were great as well regarding wear and ride. Make no mistake, the Pirelli and Michelin brands make fantastic tires but neither never made it to half the mileage warranty even with consistent rotation. I did receive a prorated cost due to early tire wear but it gets expensive replacing tires like these every 12 - 18 months.

Good price, good tire, just wish it lasted longer.

I replaced the original Continental tires on my Edge ST with the Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultras. The Continentals lasted 25,000mi. The Bridgestones were just shy of the wear bars after about 22,000mi. and had to be replaced before winter. They were rotated and all 4 tires had about the same tread life remaining and were worn evenly across the tire. The car was not driven aggressively. They are a low profile tire, size 265/40R21, maybe around 23,000mi-25,000mi is all i can get out of that size. I just hoped for a little longer tread life. Still, the tire had a nice tread design and seemed to handle great in snow last year and on wet roads even at 3/32 tread depth. The ride was smooth and quiet and they came at a reasonable price compared to other similar tires. I ended up replacing them with another set of the same Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultras mainly because of the price. They're a good, top of the line, tire brand and they were priced well below Continental, Pirelli, and Michelin, and had a nicer All Season tread design than their competitors. I would recommend this tire.

Poor Quality / Poor Customer Service

Purchased these tires for 2021 Volvo XC90, 6 months later, 6100 miles, the rear tires measure 4/32 at the rotation service. Service center/Bridgestone tire dealer did not rotate tires due to condition and reached out to company with concerns of condition. Bridgestone rep stated the tires started at 10/32. Didn't even make 10% of the 80K warranty. When speaking with customer service, both the dealer and myself were made aware that Bridgestone would not fully cover the replacement. In addition, they would not cover the front tires being they are 7/32 and cannot do anything until they are 4/32. They calculate they would last another 3000 miles, and at that point reaching 4/32, I could submit a another claim in which the would calculate another percentage for that replacement. Customer Service agreed these are not a good tire for Volvo XC 90s. Estimate is less than 10,000 miles before they fail inspection. I would search for another brand in this size and WOULD NOT buy if you have a VOLVO XC90

Replacing Alenza Duellers

I drove my Alenza Duelers for 8 years and put over 80K miles on them along with an additional 20K flat towing miles behind my RV. Those tires wore evenly which is remarkable of a 4WD vehicle; and still had a lot of tread depth left. However, I decided to replace them even tho they had served me quite well and may have a year or two more left on them. The new Alenza AS Ultras have already impressed me with a smooth, quiet ride that I am sure will not disappoint in all weather conditions for many more years. Great tires! The best!

Quiet smooth ride

Bought these as recommended replacement for the duelers that came on truck. They seem great so far but, if you live in a state that has "grooved concrete" on freeway, know that these tires really grab those grooves causing an unstable feel which isn't fun at freeway speeds

Bubba's Review

The Alenza AS Ultra offers strong all-season performance, with good traction on various surfaces including wet and dry roads. The tread design typically enhances grip and handling, contributing to a more stable driving experience. Tires provide a quiet and comfortable ride, minimizing road noise and vibrations. The comfort level is often appreciated for daily driving and long trips. Bridgestone tires, including the Alenza series, are generally known for their durability.

Best tires I've ever used

I recently replaced the Bridgestone Dueler HL Alenza Plus with the new Alenza Ultra 265/65R17 on my 2017 Toyota Tacoma 4DR w 6'BD. When I purchased the original tires my vehicle mileage was 53838. I replaced the tires recently at 135846, over 82K on them ans still had 4/32 tread remaining. They are quite, ride comfortablely, and long lasting. I had two sets of the 80K tires on my 2005 Tacoma and currently on my wife 2008 Toyota Highlander P245/55/R19 is on her second set also. Too make sure my vehicles tires last, I have them rotated every 10K miles and I puchased a life time alignment from the shop where I purchased the tires, smart investment I believe. Great tires if taken care of.
