Bridgestone Dueler HP Sport Reviews - Page 4

Given 29% while driving a Volkswagen Tiguan (225/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 10,000 average miles
These were the factory fitted tyres on my VW Tiguan, grip ok in dry but very poor in wet weather. Also the ride quality is poor on these tyres and quite a lot of road noise too. I also have winter tyres on which the car handles much better and is quieter and more comfortable compared to these summer tyres. Also disappointed that VW fit such poor tyres to a 4x4 vehicle.

These are fitted to a Tiguan 2.0TDi with 140 bhp and they perform very well indeed in the dry, ok but with some reservations in the wet. Never tried snow but would NOT be keen given that it slides in the wet. So far 14,000 km and minimum wear.

I have had 2 sets of Bridgestone Dueler HP Sport on an '11 Touareg

47000 between the two sets, with 3mm left on the 2nd set, so c25k a set

Just replaced with Continental Contact 5 SUV, which seem a lot quieter than the old HPs

cant fault the HP's though as OE fitment and suited the car

Given 100% while driving a Audi Q5 (235/55 R19) on a combination of roads for 21,500 average miles
On my Audi Q5 which I bought in August 2012 , had Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sports. 235/55R19,
These tires are the original tires that were on my car when I bought it. My q5 has travelled 21500 klm , and I think they are 70% worn , been an SUV I have the tires rotated about 4 times a year, or every 3000 k's . I think these tires are great they are great in wet and dry conditions, they ride smooth and quiet , and looked after they will do the distance... I will definitely buy these tires again ...

Given 25% while driving a Audi Q3 (235/55 R17 V) on a combination of roads for 800 average miles
I purchased a new Q3 and thought the tyres were over inflated, I checked the tyres and found them correct. The car was new and I allowed time for the tyres to settle before I contacted AUDI after sales team. The car was a hard unresponsive and noisey drive, the tyres were ruining a good car. I have had 6 new Audi,s and driven thousands of miles on various premium tyres. These are the worst tyres I have ever driven on. AUDI came on a test drive and agreed with me then changed the tyres, they then tested the car again and could not beleive the difference. Well done to AUDI I am now driving a quality car again

Came new with my VW Tiguan, ok in the dry but very poor in the wet or even damp, losing grip at slightest hint of rain. Useless in snow, I can honestly say worst tyre I've ever had in winter, so I'm changing to winters very soon.

Given 40% while driving a Volkswagen Tdi 4 motion (235/55 R17 H) on a combination of roads for 45,000 average miles
I'm an old guy ... done all that racing around stuff as a kid so I've no idea what 'the limit' is anymore ... so can't comment on 'progressiveness' ... the tyres are still going strong on the rear at 45000 miles ... fronts replaced around 35000. Tyres have been incredibly noisy due to the uneven wear on the rears ... sound like failed wheel bearings ... inner tread worn in stepped/saw tooth pattern which is apparently a common problem these days ... nobody will take responsibility. Tiguan ride on these tyres harsh and unpleasant. Hard to believe that car/tyre manufacturers feel this kind of thing is appropriate.

Given 89% while driving a Volkswagen Tiguan Sport 2.0 TDI 140hp (225/45 R17) on mostly motorways for 47 easy going miles
I have a set of these on my VW Tiguan, I have covered 47,000 miles on these and they are still road legal!. Amazing tyres these Bridgestones. The flip side is that I don't use brakes, don't excelerate hard, I don't corner hard, and don't drive at excessive speed - my by racer days are gone!!! This has a lot to do with it and it pays in tyre life. A great tyre for all seasons...

Bought these to replace original goodyear wrangler on freelander 2, original tyres lasted 27k on fronts, 30k on rear. Bridgestones down to 3mm on only 15,500 miles and will need replacing in approx. 3k, thought I was buying quality product, wont buy again.
