Bridgestone WeatherPeak 245/40R18 93V Grand Touring All-Season Tire 006056
💡 Is the Bridgestone WeatherPeak 245/40R18 a Good Tire?
The Bridgestone WeatherPeak 245/40R18 is an all-season grand touring tire designed for sport sedans and performance coupes. It delivers balanced dry handling and strong wet traction thanks to its 3D Full-Depth Sipes and enhanced tread compound with snow-gripping edges. Ride comfort is good with controlled road noise, though the lower sidewall profile transmits more road feel than traditional touring tires. Tread life is solid for its category with competitive wear characteristics. Rated Good by TireRack based on 575 consumer surveys, it provides reliable all-weather capability but lacks the dedicated winter performance of true snow tires. Currently priced from $209.74, it is available through major online tire retailers.

The Bridgestone WeatherPeak 245/40R18 is an all-season tire, designed for coupe, sedan, crossover, SUV and minivan drivers who prioritize year-round versatility and confident performance in variable weather conditions. Its tread design and compound focus on delivering reliable traction across seasons while meeting severe snow service requirements with three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) certification.
The WeatherPeak features a durable all-season compound molded into a symmetric tread pattern for consistent performance. Evolving sipes in the central ribs maintain tread element stiffness for predictable steering response when new, then transform into effective biting edges as the tire wears. Large shoulder blocks work alongside the central design to generate traction in both dry and wet conditions. Driver feedback indicates strong wet and dry grip performance, with notable comfort and handling predictability in everyday driving situations.
Compared to performance-oriented tires, it emphasizes comfort, stability, and long-term usability across all seasons. Overall, it's a solid choice for drivers of passenger cars and crossovers used primarily for daily driving in regions that experience four seasons but don't require dedicated winter tires.

TirePath Editorial Review
"We see this as a solid all-season choice for drivers prioritizing year-round versatility and winter capability over pure performance. The trade-off is less precise handling compared to dedicated summer tires."
