Firestone is Bridgestone-owned, which means premium-tier engineering at a friendlier price. We stock the WeatherGrip (all-weather), WinterForce 2 (winter, studdable), Firehawk Indy 500 (performance), and an entry-level All-Season passenger tire at 111 42 Ave SW.

Why we recommend Firestone in Calgary

Firestone has been making tires in Akron, Ohio since 1900 — owned by Bridgestone since 1988. That ownership matters because Firestone gets the same compound research and tread engineering as Bridgestone, just sold at a friendlier price point.

The WeatherGrip is Firestone's 3PMSF-rated all-weather tire — meets Alberta's winter-tire law year-round, so you can skip the seasonal swap. We install it most often on sedans and crossovers from drivers who want premium-adjacent quality without the Bridgestone Turanza price.

For dedicated winter, the WinterForce 2 is studdable — run it studless for daily driving or studded for icy rural commutes east of Calgary toward Strathmore. For sport-oriented driving, the Firehawk Indy 500 is the performance pick.

Every Firestone we install gets the same balance, calibrated torque, and TPMS reset as our premium-priced jobs — and we price-match local Calgary competitors. Book installation or call (403) 452-4283.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about buying tires

Is Firestone a good tire brand?
Yes — Firestone has been making tires in Akron, Ohio since 1900 and is owned by Bridgestone since 1988. You get tier-1 R&D and warranty service at a noticeably friendlier price than Bridgestone-branded tires.
What's the best Firestone tire for Calgary winters?
For dedicated winter, the WinterForce 2 (studdable) — runs studless for daily commuters or studded for icy rural roads east of Calgary. For one-tire-year-round, the WeatherGrip — 3PMSF rated, meets Alberta winter law, no seasonal swap needed.
How much do Firestone tires cost in Calgary?
Firestone tires at Prince Tires range from about $140 to $260 per tire. WeatherGrip starts around $185 in 16" sizes; WinterForce 2 around $185; Firehawk Indy 500 around $200; the entry-level All Season starts under $150.
Are Firestone WeatherGrip tires 3PMSF rated for Alberta winter law?
Yes. The WeatherGrip carries the 3PMSF (three-peak mountain snowflake) symbol, which meets Alberta's winter-tire requirement and the BC Highway 93 / Trans-Canada Banff winter-tire mandate from October through April.
Can I get same-day Firestone installation in Calgary?
Yes for most stocked sizes if you book before midday. WeatherGrip, WinterForce 2, and the All Season are reliably in stock in popular sedan and crossover sizes. Call (403) 452-4283 to confirm before booking.
WeatherGrip vs Bridgestone WeatherPeak — what's the difference?
Both are 3PMSF-rated all-weather tires built on Bridgestone technology. Bridgestone WeatherPeak is the premium-branded version with a longer treadwear warranty. Firestone WeatherGrip uses similar compound chemistry at a lower price point — typically $60-100 less per tire in matched sizes.
