Hi. First time tried this tire, extremly noisy. Wet road/bit cold is very slippery. Dry is is excellent, but for winter this tire is risk of life.

Extremely well behaving winter tires for Subaru Forester. Driving these for over 25,000 km during winter months in varieties of roads and conditions - dry, wet, snow and mixed. The tires hold their job with great control and stability, making them easy recommendation as top winter tires.

Maybe my sample isn't representative to everybody. Where i live, tires can be legaly sold as new tires if they are up to 3 years old. (not used, but stored for that time)
And my sample was slightly over 3 years when i got them. The tireshop then reduced the price when i noticed it.
So mine were already 3 years and a few months old when they were mounted. (due to aging the rubber might have gotten a little harder.
Positive: -low noise in dry weather, -nice to drive in the dry, almost sporty feel, -comfortable, -ok in the snow,- cost free tire warranty from the manufacturer (for flats ect.)- low wear (but i had low wear with all tires on that car).
Negative: -noisy on wet roads (very noticable whisteling above 60 kph), -wet grip was nowhere near to what my previous set of Dunlop winter tires had.
-ice grip very far from my previous set of Dunlops.
The car had lot's of grip, and only on ice or snow with a lot of effort was i able to get the stability control to flash before i had these Bridgestones. But with these even when driving rather carefully on ice the stability flashed and the tires slipped.
And i managed a 4wheel power slide on a wet slimy road. Turning from a standstill and flooring it made the car do that. Despite only having a 4cyl Diesel and permanend awd in a 2000kg car. Easy to control, but my previous winter tires did not let go of the grip in the same situation.
Used the tires for 2 winters and one summer, where i changed the car.
