Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 6 reviews

Drivers report a polarized experience with the Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra: overall satisfaction is mixed and slightly negative, driven by several very low scores. High-scoring reviews praise a smoother ride, confident handling, and surprisingly capable snow/ice performance, while multiple low-scoring reviews complain of excessive road noise. Tread life feedback is inconsistent, ranging from very long-lasting mileage in one top-rated review to rapid wear in a low-rated complaint.

Owners praise

  • Smooth ride and stable handling
  • Good all-season traction (including snow/ice in higher-scoring reviews)
  • Strong tread life reported by some drivers

Owners criticise

  • Louder road noise than expected/compared to OEM tires

Bridgestone Alenza tires are a very dangerous tire to put on a vehicle if you intend to drive in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba or Northern Ontario in winter/ice . There is absolutely no grip on ice or snow and are hazardous to your safety when attempting to turn and/or stop the vehicle. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this tire for use on any vehicle during a Canadian winter.

I took off oem Bridgestone. ecopia. On my 2017 Highlander. We we left Costco my wife said what's that noise. Tire road noise was far greater than old tires with 50k on . Costco said they would put on a lesser tire. I made a mistake reading reviews .

I just put these on and about 1000 miles on them. So far, I like them. They are louder than my factory installed Continentals, but they are more aggressive. They run smooth and handle well. They grip decent. I ran them on dry, wet, snowy, slushy and ice. They did really well. I didn't even notice the consistency change much under me. I lost about 2mpg so far. No changes other than the tires. Talking to the tire folks, rotations every 5k and alignments are CRITICAL to getting the life out of them. Don't be mad when your car wears them out because of a lack of maintenance. They do great for my AWD daily driver.

I love my Bridgestone Alenza AS Plus tires - i have them on a 2015 GMC Denali Yukon - and i have 72,000 miles on them - i feel like they could easily go another 20K - they are wearing great - but now i am looking around to see if any tires are better than these for the money.

I have only had these tires for about 1000 miles of winter driving. They are on a 2020 Chevy Silverado High Country 6.2L. I have been running the Alenza for close to 20 years on Chevy trucks, but this one came with something else which I was not happy with. When one got damaged, the dealer told me I could get the new Alenza AS Ultra. I thought about it for a minute and then scraped the old ones. I got a better ride and better performance on ice and snow. I called the dealer and thanked him for the recommendation...it was a one way trip for me! I'm hoping that the tread life is similar to my past experience, which as been 45K to 50K on the two 5.3L Avalanches.
