Tires BRIDGESTONE or Goodyear
I got a great deal on Bridgestone Weatherpeak at Costco. I felt very confident driving them in torrential rains last week.
Duratracs are hands down the most road capable snow and ice all terrains I’ve ever used. Source live in the Adirondack mountains.
Bought these tires for my Mazda 3 after one of my OEM Bridgestone EL440’s got pregnant(sidewall bulge), and I plugged a puncture in the other one. Decided to just replace the tires completely.
So far I’m happy with them.
Pros:
- Severe snow rating so they are legally snow tires in my state(for mountain passes and stuff), and I’m guessing the snow traction is way better. They are still all season tires though.
- Seems to be a softer ride overall even on the stock 18” side.
- XL sidewall strength, vs the stock tires being standard. Should help with those sidewall issues.
- They seem fairly quiet as far as noise.
- $150 rebate in addition to being fairly cheap
Cons:
- These are definitely not for those people who want sporty handling, they don’t really feel like a sport tire, and are more of a touring road tire.
- I’ve heard the treadwear isn’t the best(makes sense with the snow rating)
I have the Goodyear Ultraterrain tired from discount tire. They are rated for 60k miles and I am at 64k right now and they still have another 10k to go from tread depth
I have 70k on the Goodyear wrangler duratracs and they are hardly showing any wear.
I had the Bridgestone Revo 3 in my last truck and they did great. And they have a 60k mileage warranty. I got 70k out of them. Before my truck was totaled. Probably had another 15k on them.
I’ve run Blizzaks in Colorado the past two winters. They’re pretty good but I’m digging the Michelins more and more and will probably replace them next winter
I got 30k on the stock GoodYear tires on my Y Long Range.
My current Bridgestone Potenzas have plenty of tread left, but developed sidewall cracks and need to be replaced.
Total cluster disaster tonight for Goodyear
