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 4 tests, 2023 to 2025
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.

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.

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

All 44 Turanza All Season 6 reviewsNow 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.

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.
This head-to-head puts Bridgestone's Turanza All Season 6, a premium touring all-season, against the value-focused Linglong Grip Master 4S. Across four shared professional tests from 2023-2025, the Bridgestone not only tops every overall ranking but repeatedly converts that into class-leading braking on both dry and especially wet surfaces.
The Linglong holds its own in comfort, noise, and upfront value, and it even edges the Bridgestone in a couple of snow metrics. But the pattern is clear: the Bridgestone builds a decisive advantage where it most matters day-to-day-stopping distances, wet grip, aquaplaning resistance, efficiency, and wear-while the Linglong appeals to budget-conscious drivers prioritizing calm road manners and low purchase price.
Conclusion
Across all four tests, the Turanza All Season 6 is the consistent benchmark, winning every overall comparison and sweeping dry and wet braking. Meaningful gaps show up particularly in the wet: up to ~15% shorter wet braking distances and stronger aquaplaning performance, translating to a larger safety margin in real traffic. It also returns lower rolling resistance, better fuel economy, and longer tread life.
The Grip Master 4S undercuts on price and runs quieter, with marginally better snow braking and traction in one test. For light-snow regions with restrained driving and tight budgets, it's a serviceable option. For most drivers, however-especially those frequently facing rain-the Bridgestone is the safer, more economical long-term choice, pairing top-tier wet security with durability.

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.
