Bridgestone Dueler HP Sport Reviews - Page 6

Given 80% while driving a Honda CRV (215/65 R16) on a combination of roads for 38,000 average miles
I have just replaced the front 2 tires on my CRV after they have covered 38,000 miles in 5 years. The rear tires still have 5mm of tread left!! Dry grip is very good and the tire gives a lot of feedback to the driver. In the wet they could lose traction if pushed hard but then again so does every tire. For every day use and ferrying the kids about these tires are more than adequate for the car. Needless to say both new tires on the front are Duelers, I did consider fitting a budget brand for £72 each but then found a local mobile tire fitter who came to the house and charged me £99.50 per corner all inclusive. Due to the fantastic tire wear it would be false economy to fit the cheapies.

Given 100% while driving a Volkswagen Touareg (225/45 R18) on a combination of roads for 24,000 average miles
i've a 2008 Touareg 3TDI v6. The Bridgestone Duellers i fitted last year have given me 24,000 miles (39,000km) which i was very very impressed with. a mix of country roads and motorway. I do no trailer pulling either. The wear is pretty even, good grip etc. I'd definitely recommend paying the bit extra for Bridgestone, as they've given fantastic mileage.

Superb tires had them on my X5 2009 for 32000 and still have 3.5 mm left in snow absolutely brilliant. Last winter never had issues travelling between Nottingham and Highlands in Scotland.

Exceptional in wet good all round tire.

mostly driven on country roads,found good in dry conditions, not so good in wet couldnt stop last december in damp conditions and damaged front end.i found they are very poor in snow with next to no grip.i live on an estate on a slight hill and because of lack of grip with these tires last winter i couldn't get off estate for over a week. don't think i would buy duelers again.am thinking about getting winter tires for the winter months.

So far I,m very pleased with these tires but not had my car long & wondering how things will go during the winter months! I have the new Mini Countryman Cooper Diesel ALL4 which have the Bridgestone Dueler HP Sport fitted as standard.Would be interested to hear from anyone who has experience of winter conditions on these tires.

Given 87% while driving a Ford Explorer (255/70 R16 H) on mostly country roads for 0 average miles
I have had 4 sets of these on 2 Ford Explorers. Quite frankly I can't fault them. After several other types on other 4x4's I wish I had chosen these in the first place! Wear rates are excellent 20 to 25k per set. On Tarmac they are quiet and have great grip in he dry and wet. As for snow I take this to the Alps regularly, no they arn't listed as snow tires but they are more than adequate. Especially if you don't want the added road noise of snow tires for the hundreds of miles on the motorway before you see snow! If you use your 4x4 for mainly road use these tires are for you, go off road and they will get you back on it! Expensive but

Given 70% while driving a Suzuki grand vitara (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 18,000 spirited miles
These tires came as standered from new well worn with 2mm left on the front and 5mm on the back. i do a lot of semi off roading on dirt tracks and mudy single track roads, they got me there and back safly. not to bad in the snow but not the best as the same suzuki as mine when past on yokohama's i was stuck with all four wheels spinning! might buy them again as a summer tire but not as an all year rounder!

I have found this to be a good general purpose tire, fitted four to my xtrail,living in the Scottish Highlands though one of the worst winters in years this tire performed well in all conditions and surprisingly well in the deep snow ice when lesser capable cars ground to a halt.

Good road tire. Pleased with it. Premium brand. However, you can't say this tire is good on snow though. This is not a winter tire so how can it be good on snow? Let's be clear about this.

Geeod all-round tire used on a Tiguan Escape 4x4 as VW original equipment. Very good on snow, reasonably good on ice, a good compromise tire

Got these at the back of my ML. Seems ok and good all rounder so far. Rubbish at snow as expected.

Given 47% while driving a Volvo XC60 (235/55 R19 W) on a combination of roads for 22,000 average miles
They came along with my new volvo, used them for 35000 klm. On dry surface everything seems fine but when you drive on wet roads they act completely different, twice got me out off the road and that was with 70 klm/hr. Use them only in Africa.
