About This Tire

The Bridgestone Alenza 001 255/40R21 is a summer tire, designed for crossover and SUV drivers who prioritize sporty handling and enhanced vehicle appearance in warm weather driving. Its low-profile design and performance-oriented compound focus on maximizing dry grip and steering response while maintaining reasonable wet weather capability.

This tire features Bridgestone's summer-specific tread compound and aggressive sidewall construction designed to complement large diameter wheels on 2WD and 4WD vehicles. The tread pattern balances contact patch optimization for dry performance with adequate water evacuation channels for wet conditions. Driver feedback points to strong dry road handling with good wet traction and comfort, though treadwear longevity rates as moderate for this performance category.

Compared to all-season tires, it prioritizes warm weather grip and handling precision over year-round versatility. Overall, it's a solid choice for crossovers and SUVs used primarily for street driving and highway travel in climates without freezing temperatures.
