Data updated

Which should you buy?

Choose the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 if your priority is maximum safety on dry and especially wet roads (commuting, motorway, variable rain)-its consistent braking advantage is decisive. Choose the Dunlop All Season 2 if you frequently face snow/ice and you want the lowest running costs (rolling resistance + very high mileage), accepting that its dry/wet braking is the key compromise.

Where the Turanza All Season 6 is stronger

  • Consistently class-leading braking: wins dry braking 8/8 and wet braking 8/8, often by ~10% (e.g., 36.5 m vs 41.2 m dry; 42.9 m vs 44.6 m wet in 2026 qualifier)
  • Strong wet-safety package beyond braking: frequent wins on wet circle and especially straight-line aquaplaning (e.g., 81.5 vs 77 km/h in Auto Express 2025; 76.1 vs 69.4 km/h in Auto Bild 2025)
  • Typically higher warm-weather confidence: often better dry handling metrics (e.g., Auto Bild 2024: 96 vs 93.9 km/h) and strong subjective road manners/comfort in some tests

Where the All Season 2 is stronger

  • Better winter performance on snow/ice across the dataset: more wins in snow braking/traction/handling (e.g., Auto Bild 2025 snow braking 23.7 m vs 25.8 m; ADAC 2025 ice braking 14.8 m vs 15.5 m)
  • Ownership-cost strength: consistently lower rolling resistance and fuel use tendency (e.g., Auto Express 2025 RR advantage ~16%; ADAC 2025 fuel 5.7 vs 5.8 l/100 km)
  • Outstanding projected mileage and value per kilometre in major tests (e.g., Auto Bild 2025 wear 68,600 km vs 59,150 km; ADAC 2025 wear 62,700 km vs 47,100 km; lower cost/1000)

Wins count every measurement the shared tests recorded for both tyres; a tick marks the tyre ahead on that line. Subjective driver scores count as wins but are never averaged, because each test uses its own scale.

Head to head in 9 tests, 2024 to 2026

Each row is one published test in which both tyres ran on the same car, in the same size, on the same day. The line is the whole field, winner on the left.

Point at or tap any spoke for both tyres' figures.

In each test the better of the two figures counts as 100% and the other as its share of it, so a 36 m stop against 34.2 m is 95%; each spoke averages the shared tests that recorded it. The scale stops at 90%: a point further in sits on the hub's edge, hollow. 8 measurements recorded in only one shared test are left off; every measurement is in the table further down.

Every measurement, side by side

Averages of the figures both tyres posted in the same tests. The gap is the average of each test's own gap, so figures from different cars and years are never mixed. Open a discipline for its measurements, and a measurement for every test's figure.

Braking distances and lap times are better when lower; speeds, wear and grip figures when higher. A test's figures are its own: sizes, cars, surfaces and temperatures differ from one to the next, which is why the averages here are only ever of tests the two tyres shared. "Scored" rows are subjective driver ratings: each test uses its own scale, so only the wins are counted.

Scores beyond the shared tests

On the Tyre Reviews Score, which weighs every test and review we hold, the Turanza All Season 6 scores 9.4 and the All Season 2 8.7 out of 10.

Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6

  • 79%from 44 reviews
  • 76%would buy again
  • 393,509 milesdriven by reviewers

Owners broadly rate the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 as a very safe, summer-leaning all-season tyre, with a clear consensus around strong wet grip (mentioned by over half of reviewers) and similarly impressive dry grip. Snow traction is generally described as capable for occasional winter use, and around a third of owners also report encouraging tread life. The main drawbacks are feel and efficiency: around one in four owners complain of numb steering feedback and a similar share report higher rolling resistance/fuel consumption, while road noise is divisive with near-even praise and criticism.

  • Very strong wet grip and confidence in heavy rain
  • High dry grip that feels close to a summer tyre
  • Capable snow traction for light to moderate winter conditions
  • Good tread life for year-round use
  • Numb steering feel and limited feedback near the limit
  • Higher rolling resistance and a noticeable fuel economy hit for some
  • Road noise can be intrusive on certain surfaces, despite others finding it quiet

Summarised by AI from 43 vetted reviews; the reviews themselves are on the tyre page.

Now nearly 2 years and 20k miles in. These tyres are still as good as they were new and tread has only dropped to 5-6mm all round, suggesting >40,000 miles a set which is more than the OE Pirelli P7 summer tyres managed. Have experienced winter slush and light snow without any grip issues, when the car felt stable and safe, but as I live on the south coast with regular trips to family in Yorkshire, they don’t need to be a dedicated winter tyre. Economy unchanged around 45mpg overall, 50mpg on a motorway run. For my use, these have been very impressive and I would be happy to replace them with another set, although there may be even better choices in 3 years when these should be just about done.

Dunlop All Season 2

  • 70%from 7 reviews
  • 43%would buy again
  • 47,065 milesdriven by reviewers

Drivers' feedback on the Dunlop All Season 2 is mixed but generally favorable, with the highest-scoring reviews strongly praising confident all-season traction-especially in wet and colder conditions-and good real-world mileage. Several users also describe it as good value and secure in everyday driving. A smaller but recurring set of comments mentions noticeable noise/squeal and less satisfying handling/understeer on warmer, dry roads; one very low score reports poor sidewall durability but this is not widely echoed.

  • Strong grip/traction in wet and cold conditions
  • Good all-season versatility (including light snow capability)
  • Good tread life/mileage when maintained
  • Good value for money
  • Noticeable road noise/squeaking
  • Less precise handling on warm/dry roads (can feel like understeer)

From my experience tyre is very good in cold, wet and damp condition. On dry and warmer asphalt not so great at handling.
Wear is expetional, they wear very little.

Reading the results

Written from the test results and owner reviews above. It is analysis, not a measurement: where it and the tables disagree, the tables are right.

Bridgestone's Turanza All Season 6 and Dunlop's All Season 2 target the same buyer: a premium-touring, do-it-all tyre for passenger cars that should feel secure in summer rain, competent in cold snaps, and civilised day-to-day. The shared tests here are unusually rich (8 comparisons across 2024-2026, including Auto Bild, Auto Express and ADAC), so we can separate “headline feel” from repeatable, measurable strengths.

The pattern is clear: the Bridgestone is repeatedly the braking and wet-safety specialist (often by large margins), while the Dunlop leans into winter traction plus running costs (rolling resistance, wear and cost-per-km). If your all-season life involves lots of motorway miles and occasional snow, this becomes a classic safety-versus-economy trade-off-made sharper by how consistently Bridgestone outbrakes Dunlop on both dry and wet tarmac.

Conclusion

Across the shared tests, the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 is the more safety-led all-season, driven by dominant braking performance. It wins dry braking in all 8 comparisons, typically by ~10-12% (e.g., 36.5 m vs 41.2 m in Auto Bild's 2026 braking qualifier; 38.5 m vs 43.2 m in ADAC 2025), and it also wins wet braking 8/8 (often with meaningful gaps, such as 50.5 m vs 57.3 m in Auto Bild 2024). It also tends to be stronger in straight-line aquaplaning resistance (5/5 wins where measured). The downside is that it can give away time in handling-style events (notably in the Auto Bild Allrad SUV test where it was slow on wet/dry handling) and it's consistently weaker on snow metrics than the Dunlop.

The Dunlop All Season 2's case rests on winter ability and ownership costs rather than outright warm/wet safety. It repeatedly beats Bridgestone on snow braking/traction/handling (e.g., Auto Bild 2025 snow traction +10.6%, ADAC 2025 snow/ice braking advantages), and it is consistently the more efficient endurance option: lower rolling resistance (e.g., Auto Express 2025: 7.56 vs 9.04 kg/t; Auto Bild 2024: 7.68 vs 8.67 kg/t) and markedly longer predicted mileage (Auto Bild 2025: 68,600 km vs 59,150 km; ADAC 2025: 62,700 km vs 47,100 km). The trade-off is hard to ignore: multiple tests flag Dunlop's dry braking as among the weakest in the field, which is the single most “real-world emergency” metric.

Practical takeaway: if you prioritise maximum year-round braking safety-especially in wet weather-choose the Bridgestone. If you regularly see snow and also care strongly about low running costs (fuel/rolling resistance and long wear life), the Dunlop can make sense, but you're accepting a clear braking deficit on dry and wet roads.

Where this data comes from

Finishing positions and measurements are transcribed from each published test. A test only counts here when both tyres ran in it, so every figure was recorded on the same car, size and day as the one it is compared to.

About the TR Score

The Tyre Reviews Score rates each tyre out of 10 from every independent test result and vetted owner review we hold, so two tyres can be compared even before a test has run them together.

Who does the testing

Every test published as a Tyre Reviews test is run by Jonathan Benson, who has been testing tyres independently since 2007.
