Bridgestone ALENZA AS ULTRA for 20" wheels

I wonder if anyone tried Bridgestone ALENZA AS ULTRA tires on the X5. Looks like these tires have pretty decent mileage warranty. Debating whether should I go with DWS06 or try these tires.

The Bridgestone Customer service is complete phony and money hungry as compared to conti and Michelin. Both conti and Michelin customer support takes care of the customer with any problem with no questions asked. Bridgestone They are horrible. Worst customer service ever. They do not back there own products and make every excuse to avoid having to switch tires. I spent thousands with them until i called one day and found out they are not a company you want to give any money too. That why i made the switch to conti. I Highly recommend the dws 06 plus.

I heard that DWS 06 will last less than 20K miles on a staggered setup. Can anyone comment on this? Is there any all season tire for f15 which can last longer than that?

Currently My 20in 469m Still have full tread only minor outer wear common on m adaptive suspension cars. They've been installed for exactly 20k odo. My oem RFT summer's were bald less than 12k on them. Also tire warranty is half when running staggered setup.

I’ve got 18k miles on our square DWS sets up. They are basically new. About 1.5mm wear only. No rotations (shame on me).

The mileage warranty on dws06+ is 50% of the 45k warranty due to staggered sizes (and it's true of any manufacturer including Bridgestone). The contis last a lot longer, typically into the mid 30s if maintained well (proper alignment, periodic rotation, proper inflation etc). Buy them from Discount Tire and take advantage of their free rotation and balance incentive.

I couldn't keep any tire on my staggered setup more than 20K miles. This included the DWS06 & Michelin AS4 - the rears just go so fast for me staggered and when needing replacement, the fronts were still 5 or 6/32

This is a staggered setup consequence in my opinion. With that said, I recently went 20" square and put the DWS06 275/40/20 all around. Can't be happier so far

going to sell my 451 20" staggered wheel setup. Rear tires were taken off and fronts still have very useful AS4's on them - maybe somebody could use a couple 451 20x10's for a square. I was going to do this but could never find 2 fronts.

That is true, i just placed the order for new set yesterday, as my current set was put on Nov 17th 2020. Lasted about 19k miles with few out of state trips. But super comfortable & quiet ride, great in snow as well, if you live in snow areas.

With staggered setup you are bound to get that life out of them unless you are strictly driving long high distances.

If you are in Northern US states where you get snow and dont want to do summer/snow setup, i would recommend Conti DWS.

I have 20" staggered and previously had DWS06. I think I got around 30k miles on them. This time I am trying the Toyo Proxes STIII since they were cheaper than the DW06 and so far have no complaints.
