Great Tire. Can't go wrong with Firestone

These are really good tires in dry and wet conditions. They are quiet on the road, they handle really well, and they make my car a more comfortable ride. I haven't had a chance to try them in winter conditions yet but I'm sure they will do fine. Overall the WeatherGrip is a great tire and I will definitely purchase them again when the time comes to replace my tires.

A good tire with reasonable price

I just purchased 4 brand new Weather grip by Firestone tires and happy with that. In the past 2 weeks that the tires are replaced, I had no problem with them. My previous tires were Michelin which I paid too much and didn't have a long life. I think it's too soon to have a right judgment about my new tires but so far, so good!!!

Snow Event

We have gotten over 2 ft. of snow this weekend. When I got caught out in part of it. I was very happy with my new tires. I didn't slide, I didn't spin, they worked like I was hoping they would. Other cars were struggling, but I wasn't. I am also happy with how much quieter they are on dry roads compared to what I had on prior. Now if they last as long as they should, I will be one super pleased customer.

SUBIE CAN DOOO

Bought these for my Subie. I live in Oklahoma and we get all kinds of crazy weather. Not the snow that some get but we almost always get a good shellacking before we get out few inches of snow. These did just fine for my wife and I. And when we get a good Okie tornado storm blow through we can get several inches of rain in a very very short time. Not sure if anyone has ever used the Oklahoma Highway/street systems but lets just say that they would have to work pretty hard to make it up to sucking level! These tires never failed or let me down. And a good old Okie summer day can see a temp of 110 so you can only imagine the street temp... again, never failed me in the least. Soooo..... are these the best, maybe not, But I've not found anything that I like more. But more importantly... these mounted on my sure footed Subaru make for a safe drive. That peace of mind when my wife is driving the car is well worth the price of the tire!!

Best tires ever!!

Immediately I noticed how quiet and smooth these tires made my driving experience. Also, it makes me feel as if I'm driving on marshmallows! Truly the happiest I've ever been purchasing tires. Able to corner at high speeds and heavy rains are not a problem! Now the ice and winter roads will be a true test and am anxious for winter to come now!! ‍♀️

weathergrip tires

I have had these tires on for 30,000 miles now and am still at 6/32 on tread wear. Right after tire install took a trip to CA in Feb of 2022. found a lot of snow and ice in the mid west. these tires handled exceptionally well, was still able to maintain a good speed and had no slipping or sliding on interstate. These tires handle exceptionally well in wet weather has well, still can hydroplane in real deep water, but for normal driving in heavy down pours the hydroplaning factor really diminishes. I would and do recommend these tires all the time.

Great tire, but only lasted 35,000 mile

It was a great tire, but only lasted half what was warranted. Got a replacement set of tires, but was charged for mounting and balancing, which I think is an oversight in their warranty policy. They're great as a one-tire, but don't expect them to last long.

Mileage rating is not accurate

These tires performed well for the first 10k miles, after that point the performance went downhill quickly. The rating of these is listed at 65k miles I stretched these to just over 30k at which point I had to change, being that I had a young driver now I could not trust having my daughter use my car & feel safe with her driving. This is my second time of giving Bridgestone/Firestone brand tires a chance, & never again will I purchase a Bridgestone/Firestone tire.

Not a 65000 mile tire

First winter, these tires were amazing. After 29000 miles on them, they are worn out . They are incredibly noisy and don't provide very good traction anymore. I tried processing a claim with firestone about the premature wear. Their response was too bad, 3/32 is typical wear and not excessive. I thought that when I purchased a 65,000 mile tire, I would at least get 40000 out of them. Not with Firestone. I will now shop for a different brand of tires. I already purchase a new set of tires for our Highlander and they weren't Firestone.

Out of balance feeling

I bought these and had to bring them back three times and I still have a shake like an out of balance feeling and fire stone kept telling me there's nothing wrong with them. I have now driven them approximately 15,000 miles and im surprised my teeth are still in my head.
