2026 Tire Rack All-Weather vs Winter Tire Test P1 of 2All Weather

The WeatherPeak is the most winter-capable all-weather tire in this test, and its snow braking in particular is close enough to dedicated winter rubber to matter. Ice is where the gap reopens, and the ride is the weakest here, so it is a strong year-round option for snow country rather than a true winter replacement.

I plan to yes, it's just proving tricky to arrange as testing in the US isn't as normal as it is in Europe.

Bridgestone WeatherPeak Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 15 reviews

Drivers report the Bridgestone WeatherPeak tire performs strongly in winter conditions, with multiple reviewers praising confident snow/ice traction and dependable braking, and several also noting solid wet-weather grip and generally low noise. Experiences are more mixed on-road feel, with recurring comments about mushy steering/poor straight-line tracking (especially on grooved pavement) and only average dry performance. Tread life is a frequent concern, with several owners reporting faster-than-expected wear and earlier replacement than anticipated.

Toyota Avalon 2021

50,000 miles

I got my Bridgestone Weatherpeaks on my 2021 Toyota Avalon summer 2024, spending 2 winters and 1.5 summers on them. I never meant to get the weatherpeaks but the shop I went to had their inventory off and didn't have the tires i wanted in after telling me they did, and gave me a discount on these for their error.

They are fine tires. I never had them seriously slip in the snow or ice in northern Midwest US winters. They ride rougher than the touring tires I prefer but no rougher than winter tires.

When they were new they would get pulled around by the grooves in pavement on some highways and freeways, which was unnerving but not hazardous. This was likely because of the blocky tread because it stopped happening after they wore down over a few months.

They feel spongy and like I mentioned before have a rougher ride than I like, but when you're buying this class of tire you aren't doing it for comfort and road feel, you're doing it because you only want one set of tires that can do everything just fine, which these tires do.

I would not buy Bridgestone Weatherpeaks again just because I will not be buying any tires in the All Weather class again. I never really meant to in the first place. I figured I would just go with it to try them because I was getting a discount and I really needed new tires at the time.

They still have a little life in them after 50k miles but it's time for me to go back to switching between a summer/touring tire set and a winter tire set as this is a better experience for me.

Low noise, decent snow traction. Just OK dry traction. Less than ideal MPG. Wearing quickly at just 20k I might get 35k miles out of them on my Odyssey. Good in the rain. Would not buy again just based on expected life span.

The tires were great when new, however, they wear fast.
45,000 km only and they are at 5/32nds and now getting a little messy on the road.
mainly highway miles as well... so they do not last long.

I put these on my 2021 AWD Mazda CX-5 about 10k miles ago, and have only used them in winter months with some warmer days punctuating their use.
For my use (mostly in 5-50 degree F weather), they’re great tires. Comfortable, and so far they’ve barely shown any wear. However, they’re not sporty tires, so don’t expect them to be. They feel much closer to my Blizzak WS-90s than my Michelin PS AS4s I had on other vehicles.
Snow grip has been great, whether it’s hard pack, fresh powder, or slush. I feel confident in the braking, turning, and acceleration. I am also confident in its wet traction, with no issues to report going through moderate puddles in central New Jersey at 50mph (+/-10) without aquaplaning.
In the dry, braking and turning feel mushy like you’d experience on a winter tire, but just a half-step closer to an all season. I think it fits the tire’s intended purpose.
In summary, I’m for my use as a “winter” tire that I could put on in late fall and leave on until spring has truly sprung, they’re a good choice, and I would buy them again if they hold up to their rated warranty. As a “spirited” driver, I put Michelin PS4s on during the summer. I can’t speak to how these feel on the really hot summer days.

I bought these tires a few weeks ago from Costco and should have changed my mind. Consumer reports rated then as the lowest all weather tires, 2 out of 5 in wet, 3 of five on dry, handling only 3, the only factor that was treated good was snow, now I'm on Vancouver Island and it is mostly wet so I'm in for some surprises. Can't believe Costco would even sell such junk.

I purchased these tires in June, 2023 at Discount Tire. At first I was happy with the purchase. The ride seemed smooth and not too noisy on normal asphalt roads. Then I drove on a grooved highway in Houston ( I10). My car ( Prius) would not track well and seemed to mildly shimmy. This would only happen on any grooved highway. Disheartening. Fortunately, Discount Tire is replacing the tires with the Ecopia model. I would have preferred the Ecopia + 422, but none were available. Hopefully, I will get a smooth, uneventful ride.

Right after I had these installed on my 2019 Buick envision I started having issues with the handling of my car. The best way to describe the problem is like driving over rumble strips. When I hit a pot hole or rough patch of road the car starts shaking and I loose control of the wheel. I have to slow down to almost a complete stop before the problem goes away. This is happening intermittently so when I took it in to dealership of course they could not replicate the problem. Out $250. Also took to bell tire and they could not find a problem either. So now I have to drive around with defective tires?? In unsafe conditions.
