Most customers rate wet traction highly, with scores of 8-10 highlighting confident wet braking and hydroplaning resistance. Some lower scores indicate occasional concerns, but overall performance suits all-season Crossover/SUV use.

...The wet traction has been decent. I have not had any problems even in heavy rain at highway speeds...
These Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sport AS tires came stock on my 2012 CR-V. We purchased the vehicle in May 2012. The dry handling of the tire is good. I don't find the tire to be loud. The wet traction has been decent. I have not had any problems even in heavy rain at highway speeds. The first snow was a different story. We had about 3 inches of snow here on the first snow of the season. I was not confident at all in these tires. Snow traction is horrible. Braking in the snow is just as bad. The tration control and ABS kick in conyinually. I would not expect this from an all-season tire at all. These tires are not great at all if you are looking for all-season performance like they state. If you won't be driving in snow, they are an okay option. That said, there are plenty of other options that would surpass this tire in every aspect for a lot less money. I would not recommend this tire.

...Wet and dry performance is fine, and I've done a lot of wet driving on these tires in the Pacific Northwest...
The tire is a little loud as others have mentioned, but nothing terrible. Maybe if I replaced with a much quieter tire I would suddenly notice a massive difference but they're OK as it stands. Wet and dry performance is fine, and I've done a lot of wet driving on these tires in the Pacific Northwest.
The main issue is snow. The tires, and I'm not over exaggerating here, feel treacherous in the snow. Even driving in light snow at very reasonable speeds (the same as everyone else on the road, and I've done a lot of snow driving to know) was awful. Braking response was bad, and the ABS would kick in quickly when I did a traction check. It's also the only time the car has ever used its vehicle stability/dynamics control thing, multiple times. I was legitimately scared and glad to get off the pass and down in elevation. All this was a week after taking off the snow tires due to it being the end of the legal studded tire season, so it was a spring time snow event east of the mountains here. It was normal snow, not slushy, fairly dry stuff actually considering the location.
My advice: if you have these tires on your car think very carefully about driving in the snow. If you do, go slower than everyone else and do occasional traction checks (braking to the ABS limit, *carefully*, with nobody behind you) so you know how much traction you have (likely very little). If you plan on doing regular driving in the snow please get better all-season or even basic and cheap snow tires as they will save your life. Again, these tires are treacherous on the snow!

...I have driven in all road conditions, snowy, high water, and of course dry conditions. These tires have performed very well in all conditions...
Love this tire. Very sporty and bold tire. I have driven in all road conditions, snowy, high water, and of course dry conditions. These tires have performed very well in all conditions. Goes easily in 8-10" of snow. Well done Bridgestone!!!

Most customers rate dry traction highly with scores primarily 8-10. Positive feedback highlights confident handling and reliable grip, aligning well with its Crossover/SUV Touring All-Season design.

...This tire is a sport tire and performs as such. It grips the road extremely well dry or wet and takes harsh corners with confidence...
Tires came as OEM on my wife's CRV. I don't feel all the negitive reviews on here are justified. This tire is a sport tire and performs as such. It grips the road extremely well dry or wet and takes harsh corners with confidence. The winter traction was okay for an awd but I don't know if I would want these to use in the winter on a vehicle without awd or 4wd. We got about 30000 miles out of this set and will be replacing in the near future as they are at 3/32in. Treadlife wasn't impressive and they got louder at about 5/32in but all around this was a reliable solid street tire that performed well for the entire treadlife. Even at 3/32in I'm impressed at how they handle in the rain with such low tread.

Most customers rate comfort highly with scores 7-10, praising smooth ride and noise reduction. High marks (9s/10s) highlight excellent refinement for Crossover/SUV use. Some variability in noise ratings noted, but overall positive feedback.

...Still some road noise but the tread wear and ride is excellent...
Never liked Bridgestone before on a 2009 CRV. However, this model is much better on the 2012 CRV. Still some road noise but the tread wear and ride is excellent. This tire is the original tire.

Winter traction ratings for the Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sport AS show concerning scores, with many customers giving 0-6 for ice and snow performance. Frequent reports of slippery conditions, loss of traction, and getting stuck highlight its lack of winter capability. While a few scores reach 7-10, most indicate unacceptable snow and ice handling.

...Light snow and compacted snow make this tire become more like a set of bald tires...I'm not kidding... I have honestly never experienced tires in snow that have performed so badly. Traction control/ABS coming on all the time (and we were driving normal for the conditions)...
We got our 2013 Honda CRV (AWD) in April (we have 7000 miles on them). These were the OEM tires installed. They are fine summer tires...nothing exceptional, just average. We just got back from our 2013 Christmas in MN...we happened to get a couple inches of snow on our drive (about 10 degrees out). I have never, ever, been so disappointed with a set of tires (and this is why I'm posting). Light snow and compacted snow make this tire become more like a set of bald tires...I'm not kidding. This is my wife's CRV, and I will be replacing them this weekend. I have honestly never experienced tires (in snow) that have performed so badly. Traction control/ABS coming on all the time (and we were driving normal for the conditions). I just feel the need to warn others about this tire in colder climates...avoid them.

...I was shocked how bad these tires were in light snow. I have the AWD version of the CR-V and really like the vehicle overall but I agree with several other reviewers that these tires are poor in light snow. I thought my traction control was off or malfunctioning...
These came on my 2012 CR-V and I'm ready for something better (that's why I'm here). I'm in SE MI. I was shocked how bad these tires were in light snow. I have the AWD version of the CR-V and really like the vehicle overall but I agree with several other reviewers that these tires are poor in light snow. I thought my traction control was off or malfunctioning.
As far as thread wear goes; they're okay. I have 38k on them and there's at least another 10k left on them. I don't want to face another winter with them, though.
I think these tires are noisy. I wouldn't mind the noise if they were good in the snow.
I don't know what to purchase as a replacement. The reviews on here are all over the place. I can't believe how people can have such different experiences on the same tire and vehicle. I'm a good driver (no accidents or tickets in 35 years) and I logged a lot of miles (over 30k a year on average). This is my first AWD vehicle and was expecting awesome snow performance. Not so with these OEMs.

...But this tire is downright dangerous in light snow covered or somewhat icy conditions. With 12k on them I had to drive on snow covered roads in an AWD crv. I could not stop or steer adequately...
I never take time to offer reviews. But this tire is downright dangerous in light snow covered or somewhat icy conditions. With 12k on them I had to drive on snow covered roads in an AWD crv. I could not stop or steer adequately. I drive a ton and am used to all road conditions but these tires honestly scared me. I got home and immediately had another tire installed that day. If you live in the desert these would be ok. Not a bad ride n fairly quiet in dry conditions. For an oem tire to behave this way in adverse conditions is disappointing.

Treadwear ratings show a split: some 9s/10s, but many 0-6 scores. Customers report rapid wear, premature replacement, and disappointment in tread life for this all-season SUV tire.
September 19, 2017
Terrible treadwear!!! The worst treadwear of any tires I have bought in the past 20 years... Had to replace all 4 tires at 18,000 miles on a 2017 Subaru Outback...

Subaru makes a good car but offers very poor grade tires as original equipment.
Just one more note.. The original tires come with a ZERO , (THATS RIGHT ) ZERO MILEAGE GUARANTEE !!!
Buyer BEWARE !!!

...At 28,000 miles the noise is excessive, actually worse than the winter tires I just put on. And I was shocked to see that all 4 tires, although evenly worn and properly inflated, are almost at the wear bars...
This was the OEM tire on my wife's 2017 Outback. At only 28,000 miles the noise is excessive, actually worse than the winter tires I just put on. And I was shocked to see that all 4 tires, although evenly worn and properly inflated, are almost at the wear bars. I don't usually write tire reviews but the noise and poor wear of these is so surprising I am compelled to pass along my experience. Quite a contrast to our last Outback, a 2011, that clocked over 65K on the OEM Continentals. Needless to say I do not recommend these, and will definitely be replacing them with something else.

...After 28,000 mi and shoulders are down to treadwear indicators. Tires were rotated 5 times, inflation pressure was maintained to 39PSI. My kids and/or dog were in the car most of the time so cornering was modest and unlikely to blame for much of the treadwear.
OEM tire on a 2 year old vehicle driven mostly for commuting in rainy Seattle. 28,000 mi to-date and shoulders are down to treadwear indicators. Tires were rotated 5 times, inflation pressure was maintained to 39PSI. My kids and/or dog were in the car most of the time so cornering was modest and unlikely to blame for much of the treadwear. Alignment hasn't been checked but will do so when I change to new tires.
Outside of excessive treadwear, performance through standing water isn't great. This is the heaviest SUV I've owned but the only one which has hydroplaned.
