Bridgestone Alenza 001 MOE

The Bridgestone Alenza 001 MOE is a strong contender for drivers who prioritize dry grip and handling in a grand touring all-season tire. With both dry grip and handling scoring 9.5, it stands out in these areas, far exceeding the category averages. However, its wet grip score of 5.5 is a significant drawback, especially for those who frequently drive in wet conditions. In terms of comfort and noise, the Alenza 001 MOE meets the category benchmarks, providing a smooth and quiet ride. The W speed rating is a bonus for those who spend a lot of time on highways, as it ensures stability at higher speeds. However, the lack of a treadwear warranty might be a concern for buyers who want assurance on tire longevity. When compared to its competitors, the General AltiMAX RT45 offers better wet grip, which could be more appealing for those seeking a balanced all-season performance. The BFGoodrich Advantage Control and Vredestein Quatrac Pro+ may also offer more comprehensive warranties, which could influence cost-conscious buyers. Overall, if wet weather performance is crucial for you, consider alternatives like the General AltiMAX RT45. But if dry performance is your primary concern, the Alenza 001 MOE delivers in spades.
