Bridgestone  Dueler H/T D840

I am surprized at the negative reviews of this tire. I have found it to give very good wet traction and good overall handling. This last winter I drove to work 15 miles in 20+ inches of snow with these tires with no problem. I stayed at 30 mph and under because it was hard to be sure where the road was but could have pushed it much faster. Part of it is the weight balance of the Tundra Double cab I suppose--it doesnt need weight in the bed to get good traction--but I cant complain about the performance of these tires. They are definately not off-road tires but for their intended purpose they do very well. I have 34000 approx on them and expect to get 50000. I do intend to replace them with bridgestone a/t Revo tires when needed but they do match or beat any similar tire I have ever had.

Much better than expected. Based on the ratings here, I was surprised at how this tire performed. It is great on normal everyday conditions, especially in comfort and noise. Driving through a storm put the tires to the test in wet conditions, and they performed better than my expectations. During the trip, I felt no trace of anything near to hydroplaning. I felt safe driving at normal highway speeds (except for visibility of course). It is decent in snowy and icy conditions (no complaints). What surprised me the most was treadwear. I expected it to be gone after 20000 miles. After looking at the remaining tread after 10000, it looks like the tires will last at least another 20000 - 30000 miles! I will definitely consider buying this again.

this Bridgestone Dueller HT D840 is the OEM tire on a 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser. It's a highway tire, not a "cool offroad tire" so many guys immediately pull these tire off and swap them out for an aggressive tread pattern and worse-MPG offroad tire. I kept mine on, because my SUV is honestly more grocery-getter and around town commuter.



This is a mature review based on 40,000 miles of service over a 2/3 year period. I live in a primarily dry south western US climate. we get less than 16 inches of rain a year. I do get to the mountains and drive in "very light" snow conditions if I go snowboarding. But generally these tires have been pampered and regularly inspected and rotated and kept properly inflated. I expect to get about 50K miles out them, MAYBE 60K if wanted to live dangerously. But I am shopping for new tires, that's why I'm on this review site.



The tire has performed admirably for it's light-duty role. Only in very special conditions can I make it raise eyebrows - if I take this one turn on a freeway merge that is a DESCENDING DECREASING RADIUS TURN at just slightly above the posted legal speed limit, the tires will give an audible squeal all the way round the roundabout (don't try this on your own folks, I'm a privateer/track racer). But they have never lost traction, even when I have intentionally tried to set-off my Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) functions.



I'm going to do some 4WD offroad driving in my next 50K miles of this car before I sell it, so I'll buy offroad tire next - BUT if I wanted a high-mileage highway tire I'd buy this same set again.

I have to say I do not understand the negative reviews? I drive pretty hard in this 300hp 06 V8 4 Runner w/XR suspension and this is the first SUV I have ever owned. I have several years of racing in my life and have always driven Porsches mainly and some BMWs and Im really impressed with this vehicle and the tires on it! I drive hard rain or dry and I live outside the city in the country but work in the city. I drive this SUV pretty fast through the turns and have found these tires very forgiving and predictable at the limits. I usually dont get much more than 15,000 miles from tires but these are doing fine at 26,000 and they still do not hydroplane at 100+ MPH in the rain! I would be afraid honestly to try another tire, the roads are really ruff out by my place and these tires can take it all. Im very cautious about what I put my family in and let them drive and I just trust these tires. I do tow a boat now and then and go off road just a little bit which is the reason I chose the 4 runner over the X5, these tires help make the comprimise work for the whole family just like the 4 runner does. As for the boy in Texas I would suggest a driving school, sounds like he might be better off with a more forgiving full time 4WD vehicle?



They definately are not the snow king but they dont make a lot of noise either, just rotate them every 5000 miles and run tire pressure for your load and driving style. I run them at 37 PSI and 32 in snow but we are hardly ever in the snow.

These tires came on my Lexus GX460 and I'll admit that I was disappointed that it didn't come with Michelins. I still think the Michelin looks much better, but the performance of the Bridgestone has been very good. The ride is smooth and comfortable. The noise level is a bit more than I would prefer. Overall the OE tire Bridgestone is an acceptable tire with good performance.

Amazing Ride Quality, very quiet, with outstanding wearability with 97,721 miles. on the right side has hit the wear bars, the left side is still above the wear bars but I will be ordering a fresh set. Key is tire rotation at 5 k miles and lots of air in the tires and a steady foot with alot of anticipation on the highway. Regards from a retired 30 year pro driver.....................

OE tires on my 4Runner. After 50,000 miles they still have 5/32 to 7/32 of the original 11/32 tread left. The front two were worn a little more due to small alignment issue. I got a more even wear across tires at 40 psi. (less edge wear. In the Mid-Atlantic weather mix these were reliable tires in all weather except snow. During the occasional 12 to 16 inch Nor'easter snow storms the tires were unremarkable; as the tread pattern tended to load with snow, but I still managed to get around. In light snow they work well enough for a All-season tire. Comfort, quiet and long lasting are what makes this tire standout.

These are the original tire on a Toyota Tacoma. They still have 7/32 of rubber across the tires. They have been rotated every 12,000. Hope to get 100,000 mile. So much for a tire with no mileage warranty. Great tire in my book.

I am over 66,000 miles on the original tires that came with my 2005 4Runner. I have rotated the tires every 5,000 miles. Will probably replace the tires by this winter. I have been impressed with the tread wear and quality. Plan to purchase the same tires since I have the Extended Mileage Warranty on the tires. Would not hesitate to purchase the same tire if I was not reimbursed. Only reason I would consider another tires is to give the vehicle a more rugged look.

I have 42,000 miles on this set and have rotated every 10,000 I hope to get 80,000 before replacing

These tires are only good on dry straight roads. Very poor traction in the rain and even worst in the snow. The only thing the tires did well is they lasted over 60,000 miles and noise level is low.

After only driving 1.5 years and 22,000 miles a set of Bridgestone H/T they are worn to the point of replacement. After a couple close calls with sliding this winter I took the car into the garage for analysis. The shop mechanic stated that continuing to drive on the tires is putting my family at risk for an accident. I am highly disappointed in Bridgestone's quality! I will probably not exercise the warrant because I don't want another set of Bridgestone tires on my family SUV.

Lost a potential long term customer!

Bought vehicle in 2011. Dealer had new Dueller H/T D840 tires installed. It's now 2015 and in 4 years I've got 60,000+ miles on these tires and about half the tread still left. The wear is very uniform. Rotate every 5k miles. Very smooth and quiet. My only complaint is that they are terrible in the snow, but for a southern state I would recommend these tires. But since I live in the Mid-Atlantic region, I need something better in the snow.
