Tires BRIDGESTONE or Firestone

BRIDGESTONE Tires

I've been running 225/45-17 Blizzak WS90 since 2020. I'll be putting that same set on again this winter. They have been amazing and I'll probably buy another set when these age out. Edit: this period included a 2300 mile roadtrip across the northern US in early 2021 when we were having a crazy blizzard across the northern plains.

Pros: They have been amazing
Mileage: 3680 km

Firestone Firehawk Indy 500s. Don't think you can beat the price ($150/tire installed when I got them) and they do great in rain. I've put 40k mi on mine and they have probably got 20k more in them.

Pros: great in rain, good price
Mileage: 64000 km

I switched from the OEM Michelin to Bridgestone Quiettrack on my '18 Accord Hybrid and they are much quieter and it handles very well. I'm very happy with them, even if I have always been a Michelin man. I don't think you can go wrong with either.

Pros: much quieter, handles well

Firestone Indy 500 tire? What level are you running at and on what car? What is your psi? It's a great novice (to intermediate-ish)tire, but you have to know when to back off. Run them too hot and they'll get a little greasy feeling. Although I can't see that happening after 1 lap.

Pros: predictable tire, good feedback
Cons: greasy feeling

Have been running 215/45r20 Potenza S001's on my i3s for a year or so and no wobble at all. If anything, feels more planted, and power transfer feels more immediate, though that may be my imagination.

Pros: feels more planted
Cons: none
Vehicle: BMW

Get Bridgestone Blizzak WS-90 for cars, DM-V2 for SUVs. Don't buy "performance" snow tires, they aren't real snow tires.

Pros: good for snow
Cons: not performance tires
Part number: DM-V2

There was about 3-4 mm of tread left on the tires when I replaced the original Bridgestone S005s (with 7,000 miles including one track day). I had a track day coming up so I wanted fresh tires but might have got a little more life if I really pushed them. I remember reading reviews on Tire Rack's website about people getting similarly short life out of them (maybe the other alternative OEM tires fare better but they're all 240 TW). I replaced the Bridgestones with Michelin PS4S (300 TW), so it will be interesting to see how they do. To be honest, on previous cars, I've never got more than about 25,000 miles our of HP or UHP all-season tires with 500-600 TW ratings so the 7,000 - 8,000 miles for these didn't surprise me.

Cons: short tread life
Mileage: 11265 km

My last set of Bridgestone Potenza tires lasted maybe 15k miles, but we’re totally bald on the inside by the 10k mark or less. Very dodgy in the rain to drive.

Cons: bald on inside, dodgy in rain, short lifespan
Mileage: 15000 km
