Review on Bridgestone Turanza T005 215/55 R17 94V summer by Petar Petrov ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent product, the best quality.

Mazda 6 (2022) has Bridgestone Turanza T005 225/45 R19 tires that were purchased at the start of June. As content as an elephant. Rubber is fantastic. I suggest. On the Bridgestone Turanza T001, I had previously driven three complete summer seasons and had lost around 50% of them. A few more seasons of skating would be conceivable, but eventually, two little bumps (not crucial) developed and the rubber started to "grab" various tiny bits of iron and stones (presumably, strength has deteriorated over time). With similar criteria, I also tried Michelin and Pirelli tires. These manufacturers don't have many models for regular cars (not SUV or XL); I can't recall the particular models. Although Michelin is softer and quieter, it has a lower level of wear resistance (I can't be sure because I haven't rolled full seasons). The Bridgestone and Pirelli are roughly equal in rigidity, but the Pirelli feel louder and handle far worse. Perhaps compared to Turanza, Bridgestone Potenza S001 225/45 R19 will have significantly better strength (due to a higher speed index) and handling (due to certain new technologies), but I was unable to test them.

Pros
  • + Relatively good wear resistance + Relatively good durability + Excellent handling (5.0/5.0)
Cons
  • Plus Noisy (4.0/5.0)
