Bridgestone Dueler H/L Alenza Plus P245/55R19 103T Tire

I've known about the Alenza for quite a while, but didn't have an SUV. My XC90 came with top-line Michelins in nearly-new condition, and they were appallingly bad. I took the opportunity to swap to the Alenza Plus despite the amount of wear remaining, & I couldn't be much more satisfied without defying the laws of physics. They've now been through 2 Midwest winters without any difficulty (shrugged off 8" of snow like it was barely there), summer jaunts down the highways, winding country roads, & visiting family & friends down long gravel drives (& sometimes no roads at all), & they've been flawless. Quiet, comfortable, predictable, & confidence-inspiring whether taking a highway cloverleaf at highway speeds or pulling stuck vehicles out of snow banks, these are supremely satisfactory. That level of confidence is worth the cost of purchase alone, & knowing that these tires are rated to last me another 70K miles is just mind-boggling. Keep up the great work, Bridgestone! I look forward to whatever will replace these (something 3-Peak Mountain Snowflake rated, I presume) as those will almost certainly be my next tires.

I just "dumped" my Cooper tires in favor of the Bridgestone Alenza Plus tires - same size and rating. I immediately noticed a quieter, more comfortable ride, and better steering control. I have been trying to get the last few miles out of the old tires (and I was still about a year away from wearout), but I now realize I should have made this switch a long time ago. It took me a while, but I finally came to my senses. Thanks Bridgestone!
