Superb All Weather Tire

I left a review when I first purchased these tires and wanted to update now that I have 22000 miles on them driving in all 4 seasons. I'm still extremely happy with my choice after researching several all weather options. Living in Minnesota, snow and ice performance was my #1 priority and I was not disappointed! I actually drove through two blizzards and never felt uncomfortable in those conditions. I was also pleasantly surprised summer driving as they were very quiet, handled great and didn't hydroplane or slide in heavy downpours. Tread life is very good and they are wearing evenly. Gas mileage was about on par with the stock tires despite the softer compound and more aggressive tread, these are actually lighter in weight. I would definitely recommend and will purchase these again in the future!

Snowpocalypse, snow problem

Back in the blizzard of'24, the East TN region ground to a halt as Jack Frost laid down a people's elbow of snow and ice on the unsuspecting folks there. Over night, the green mountains and valleys were placed in the death grip of Queen Elsa's wrath. Normally , my rear wheel drive chariot would have been a cocooned in the garage, more useless than a horse in the ocean. Fortuitously, I purchased these car kicks and the snowy skies parted, the snow and ice disappeared from the roads, and I surmounted every steep road and driveway back home. With my previous wheel prisons, I'd slide when a grasshopper farted, but no longer am I confined by the southeastern snow yeti. Thank you Bridgestone!

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!

Didn't last a year.

I purchased 4 new tires upon the recommendation of the garage I go to. 11 months later, after only **14,000 miles**, I have bald patterns throughout the tread, and will require new tires heading in to the Midwest winter. These tires are marketed to last 70,000 miles, minimum. And because my husband is able to do some mechanical maintenance on my car and has for years all rotations and mechanical fixes aren't documented at a garage - so my warranty is null and void. How frustrating! My Dad sold Bridgestone tires for 40+ years before retiring and when he looked at them this weekend he was very disappointed. So. Frustrated.

Game Changer!

A Minnesota resident, today I had the opportunity to experience the Weatherpeak in 5 inches of snow and icy conditions and they performed fabulously. My 2005 Thunderbird has rear wheel drive with positraction. By way of background, I have used Blizzaks and Michelin Ice-2 Winter tires in the past. One of the issues was swapping the winter tire and summer tires which can be pricey regardless if you invest in extra wheels. So I was interested in the Weatherpeaks because of the year round capabilities. So now I have experienced their impressive winter performance! Looking forward to summer driving.

Incredible performance

I've sold these tires ever since they came out. Always had fantastic customer satisfaction. I finally put them on my vehicle because of my experiences selling them. They preform practically like a blizzak full snow tire. Yet they can be ran all year long and have a mileage warranty to boot!!! That is unheard of!!! It's the best of both worlds. You ge the majority of people's diving with every day mileage. Plus when the weather hits they preform just as good as a tires specially designed for those conditions. Also, wet performance is incredible! Night and day difference from previous Firehawks I had... Very satisfied customer. If your one the fence and drive in any sort of wet or freezing conditions these are your 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.

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.
