Bridgestone warranty for tires
The short version
Bridgestone covers tires in full for 3 years, then keeps pro-rated replacement and tread mileage covered to 5 years. That full coverage is longer than most of the 12 brands we compared, which typically cover 1 year in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
From Bridgestone's published warranty, checked October 2026.

Good to know before you buy
- Covers the original buyer only, on the vehicle the tires were first put on.
- Bring the tire, your receipt and maintenance records (date, mileage, where serviced) to an authorized Bridgestone or Firestone dealer.
- Valid only for tires bought and used in the 50 US states and D.C.
- You may still pay taxes, valve stems and disposal fees; mounting and balancing are extra after the free period.
