Bridgestone Truck Tires

Initial Review, 5,000 Miles on Tires

I have gone through a few different kinds of a/t tires and these tires have performed remarkably. I have a 2wd truck and had no problems In this Chicago snow. I would definitely recommend these tires to anyone.

I've had the Revo2 'LT' version tires for my F250 4x4 Diesel for 35,000 miles now. They are an incredible all around tire, especially compared to the factory tires that came with the truck. They grip well in wet, dirt, and they are quiet on the highway. The steering response may feel softer compared to other tires in its category, but it's not something I would consider a negative in a big heavy truck. I've towed 10,000+ lbs for hundreds of miles and the Revo2 were completely stable and planted. I have decided to use the Revo2 tires for the life of the truck since they perform so well in all conditions (I never tried them on snow). They resist hydro-planing extremely well, 70mph in down-pours and the tires just destroy any water in its path while other cars are in the slow lane with their hazard lights flashing, this might be due to the heavy weight of the truck as well. They last 35-40k miles depending on driving style, mine are near the tread bars at 36k which is about what I expect driving a heavy truck that is hard on tires. I can honestly say anyone would be very impressed with the all-around grip and feel of the Revo2 on a full size truck, it's truely a do-it-all tire and it does everything very well.

I bought the WS70's last winter but it hardly snowed here in central Iowa, this year looked like it may repeat but then we just got hit by a blizzard and 12 inches of snow. The snow was the best part of the storm, it was the 2 inches of ice that was left on the roads after the snow plows went through that I thought would be the problem. I was very pleased and sometimes amazed how good these tires are, not once did I lose traction or start sliding around unlike many trucks and other 4wd vehicles that were in the ditch. I am still grasping that people don't buy winter tires in snow country or drive on bald tires year round, oh well I didn't need a tow truck to pull me out 3 days later. Buy these tires if you value safety of your family above all else. Now to the other details. Dry traction is a little on the spongy side and I feel the need to concentrate more but I expected that in a winter tire so not that surprised. Also I wouldn't go over 80 on these tires as it doesn't feel the safest. Overall these tire do exactly what they are supposed to do in the winter.

Deep snow In 4WD mode: Good traction for take off, cornering and braking are not as good as take off. To be fair braking and cornering are far better than the other traffic on the road in deep snow, it's easy to accelerate past other traffic and to stop and turn. It's just the traction afforded during take off doesn't match the cornering and stopping (probably the 4WD engaged vs 2WD mode). I found my self sliding off the road in deep snow when traveling much faster than traffic. If I slowed to slightly faster than the average traffic I didn't slide in corners and had no braking lockups at all.
Wet conditions 2WD: No hydroplaning through the life of the tread, good braking and cornering in the wet, take off will spin the tires pretty easily but it's a pickup truck so that's expected.
Dry conditions: Good traction for take off, good braking and cornering. In the dry it's a very good tire. Under emergency braking to the point of activating the antilock system the tires tracked straight with no extra input needed maintain directional control. To be fair stability control in the Tundra may have played a part but, in the particular instance a lady pulled out of a gas station in front of me and the guy in the lane next to me. We were both a 40 mph and slammed on the brakes as we fully expected to hit her. She froze when she realized a truck and car were coming at her and that she was about to be hit. We both stopped about 3 to 8 inches from hitting her. The Tundra and Bridgestones didn't slide or slew and no one was hurt. I heard the tires from my truck and the car next to me skidding as the antilocks pulsed on both vehicles.
Ride comfort is very good, steering response very good, tire noise is good but sometimes on concrete the noise is a little louder than asphalt. Tire wear has be good 50,000 miles and there is still some left before the wear bars. Now that they are near the wear bars there is some hint of hydroplaning but they are all but worn out. Light Offroad good

These tires are definitely impressive. I've had both Michelin Cross Terrain (factory tires), and two sets of Bridgestone Dueler Revo and Revo 2's, and these tires outperform both of them. The steering responsiveness, stability, and grip on road is the best for a light truck/SUV tire. The only other tire that would perform better in the snow and on ice is a true snow tire, but these are way better as they perform in all conditions. I no longer off road with my truck but I'm sure they would hold up fine in moderate to easy off road situations. These tires also help dampen the road bumps and keeps you on center better than any other tire. I've had them on for 4 months now, and about 5-6k miles and they still look brand new-- I haven't even had to put air in them yet. If you want the best all season road tires that money can buy, these are them.

I should have purchased these DM-V1 Blizzaks when my truck was new! They are extremely quiet, handle great in the water, and handle our Erie lake-effect snow and ice covered roads with ease. I went through 2 sets of Bridgestone Dueler Revo's thinking they would be the best year-round tire, but they wore quickly even with regular rotations, they were relatively loud, and they were absolutely aweful in the snow and ice. The Blizzaks are much quieter, give a much more comfortable ride, and significantly increased my fuel mileage! I would recommend them to anyone who faces winter weather as we do. Now I just need to find a comparable tire for the summer months with all of the benefits we have found with the Blizzaks. We have been big Blizzak fans on our cars through the Blizzak WS-50, WS-60, and WS-70 tire models, but they did not fit my truck. I'm so glad I trusted the Blizzak name and tried the DM-V1!

OEM tires- great on the hwy, great ride comfort, low noise, very good in the rain and excellent braking, not so good in mud "duh" it's not a off road tire! The only weakness is tread wear replaced at 22,000. On a lighter truck with less power-as rear tires wear faster on the 5.7 ltr engine, though my sister has the same tire on her 4x4 Tundra short cab, 5 ltr engine and looks like she will get 40 to 50k miles on them. If it was not for the high wear I would have bought a second set with no hesitation!

This was a replacement tire for the original OEM Wranglers that were junk took them off at 20,000 and never looked back, This is my second set of these BRIDESTONE tires and love them. They ride very nice at high-speed with loss noise, My truck is all wheel drive so when the front wheels get about 50% wear i find the truck gets a bit squirrely in the corner when wet. I probably should have rotated them more often.I have a porsche 911 that i drive hard and find myself driving the same way in my truck. These tires have very little roll and handle very good in the corners. i am ready for 2 more tires for the front but im going to purchase all 4 because the tread has changed over the years and don't want to mix it up and have a performance issue. I live in Newengland with unpredictable weather and the tires have never let me down.Hope my review Helped you with your decision.....Scott

My car was so-so in the snow before I bought these tires. Now i feel like I'm driving a 4WD truck. I can go through anything (within reason) and feel completely comfortable. We've got hit pretty hard with snow this winter too and there's no way I could have made an hour commute everyday in this snow without these tires. I will definitely be purchasing these again when it's time for a new car.

Some drivers hate them and others love these tires. I have had Michelins on trucks and vans and I have been pleasantly surprised by these tires. Solid in the deep snow, ice and rain. A little noisier than my old Michelin A/T's but appear to perfom slightly better on all types of roads and conditions, especially deep snow and ice! I rotate every 5,000 miles when I change the oil and have noticed evan wear throughout. Great job Bridegestone, I have renewed faith in your tire line.

Great tires. Exceeded my expectations. Went through a snowstorm a couple weeks ago, 34,500 on the tires (regularly rotated). Handled great. Put the Jeep into 4 wheel drive, and where other cars and trucks were sliding backwards downhill, the Jeep slowly but surely crawled through it, with very minimal slippage. I have had lots of tires (Michelin, Goodyear, Big O), and the performance of these tires ranks with the best of them.

I running the Blizzak DM-V1 on a 2011 AWD V6 Toyota Highlander and have for four years, same set of tires (about 3,500 miles a season). They have been and continue to be unbelieve in snow, ice, slush and wet payment and perform well even when -15 degrees. Case in point, 13" snowfall in St. Paul on 12/9/2012. Out running errand and came upon a Ford Superduty snowplow stuck in a business parking lot. I offer to pull him out...he was skecptical and didn't even get out of the truck to hook up. I eased off the brake and applied a little power and pulled him out. He then jumped out of the cab and ran back to ask my about my Highlander...I gave 90% credit to the Blizzaks. Yes, they are a little noisy, but when the going gets slick, these things stick!

I used to drive the Dalton hyway in Alaska in the 80's and bought a used Suburban from BP. It had Bridgestones that had a close resemblence to these Geolanders. I wanted to get some wet grass miles, some wet and dry snow miles, icey, wet roads, heavy rain, mud and some hyway miles on them before I rated them. I see some of these guys write reviews on tires before the stickers are worn off the treads. These are much quiter than the Goodyear Wranglers that were on this truck when I inherited it after my mother passed away. My dad has been buying 4x4's since 1967 and this was his last before passing away 7 years ago so this 2000 Silverado 4x4 had less than 45k on it when I got it but there were two of the twelve year old Wranglers with broken belts.

I have these tires on 2 dodge trucks....LT 285x70x16 on 2001 4x4 and LT 265x70x17 on a 2004 2WD. These tires have never let me down. I use both trucks on the highway and off on Forest Service roads, washes, washboard roads and everything else these Arizona environments have thrown at me. I have pushed both trucks hard in rain, snow and on highways here when the temperature is 115 degrees .I would recommend these tires as they are quiet, wear well , and have given me nothing but confidence on the road.

I've had two sets of these tires on my 2WD Tundra and I am not pleased with their wet traction nor their snow/ice traction. Back tires spin from dead stops when raining and I have fish tailed on multiple occasions with light snow on the ground. Thankfully the front tires kept their grip in these situations. I guess this can be expected from a pickup truck with light back end, but I have to assume some of it is due to the tires based on the poor wet traction. Why did I buy a second set of these tires you may ask? Well, the first set lasted a long time and they were priced well. I have decided to go with the Yokohama Geolander A/T this time around so we'll see how they compare. I will try to remember and update this review once I have had a chance to see how the new tires perform. I would not recommend these tires, at least not for a 2WD pickup truck.

The Pirelli Winters seem to handle the varied road and weather conditions we have in NW Montana. They are a bit noisier and less connected on dry pavement than the 20" Bridgestone Dueler HP's that the truck came with, but in snow and ice they stick quite well and handle the 500 ft.lbs of torque from the M motor with xDrive
