Methodology & Configuration
Scoring Process
  1. Collect Test Data: Gather results from professional tyre tests across multiple publications. Minimum 1 test(s) required.
  2. Normalize Positions: Convert test positions to percentile scores using exponential weighting (factor: 1.2).
  3. Apply Recency Weighting: More recent tests are weighted higher with a decay rate of 0.95.
  4. Incorporate User Reviews: Factor in user review data (minimum 5 reviews). Weight: 15%.
  5. Bayesian Smoothing: Apply Bayesian prior (score: 7, weight: 1.5) to prevent extreme scores with limited data.
  6. Calculate Final Score: Combine all components using normalization factor of 1.1. Max score with limited data: 9.5.

The Bridgestone Dueler A/T002 shows strong performance on paved roads. It handles wet surfaces well, ranking as the second-best tyre in the test on wet asphalt, and its performance in the dry is also solid, where it stands out as a very good dry-braking tyre. However, its overall ranking plummets to second-to-last place because of its capabilities on snow. In the snow evaluation, it was the weakest tyre in the entire test group across braking, traction, and handling, which led to its final score being downgraded.
Bridgestone Dueler A/T 002 proved to be one of the more road-focused AT tyres. On dry roads it delivered the best braking performance in the test along with good handling stability and steering response. Wet performance was commendably good with reasonable braking distances and safe, predictable handling characteristics. Its main weakness showed in snow conditions where it fell behind other winter-rated tyres in the test across all metrics. Offroad performance was decent overall though it wasn't class-leading, showing particular weakness in muddy conditions. The tyre's strengths lie in its efficiency - rolling resistance was very good at 7.8 kg/t. While relatively loud at 72.9 dB, it offered average comfort levels and good bump absorption. A solid choice for those who spend most time on roads but want occasional offroad capability.

Questions and Answers for the Bridgestone Dueler All Terrain AT002

Ask a question
August 20, 2024

Would these tyres be suitable for a Subaru Forester e-Boxer of 2024? As I drive off road every day to and from my farm in a valley over a rather bad mountain track. It gets very slippery when wet.

Yes, assuming you can get the correct size and load rating I believe the AT002 would be a great choice. Also worth checking out the other mild AT tyres in the segment such as the Continental TerrainContact AT and Falken Wildpeak Trail.

Given 87% while driving a Ford Ranger (225/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 11,000 average miles
I've been driving the Dueler on a 2024 Ford Ranger for five months. 255/60 R18 tires on the original rims. TUV registration is no problem, no speedometer adjustment required.
First impressions before the onset of winter showed no noticeable change in driving noise. Yeah! Fuel consumption only increased by 0.3-0.5 L/100 km, depending on driving style. I drive quite defensively, never felt unsafe. Always felt like I had reserves. Tires provide good footfeel. Only had a few snowy days, but good grip even on snow. Didn't drive on ice. Highly recommend! I'll stick with the Dueler, don't want to change.

Given 82% while driving a Volvo XC60 D5 AWD Auto (235/60 R18) on a combination of roads for 15,000 spirited miles
Dry and wet grip both very good, inspires safe and confident driving on slippery muddy wet roads. I was impressed by their performance in recent snow. Perform well in mild off road conditions. As all terrain tyres go these are comfortable and not too loud, no droning at any speed.
I have driven around 15k miles and the tread has worn evenly, although I have rotated them every 5k, there is still 7mm+ tread (started at 10mm). Outer shoulders slightly more worn but that is more down to my driving. I would definitely consider buying these again.

Given 97% while driving a Subaru Subaru forester 2.0 (225/60 R17) on track for 1 spirited miles
Awesome tyres. I studies the various tyres for my Subaru Forester eBoxer (2024), because of where I live, I need good AT performance, yet also good road performance and as winters get cold here in rural/inland Spain, also good winter and snow performance. And after thr Dana the Valencia area experienced, the track I have to drive daily (or twice a day) had become even more challenging. But these tyres seem to have it all and perform outstanding. I also looked at the energy labelling of these tyres. There are very few AT tyres that have a C rating. On the tarmac, these tyres are virtually as quiet as the original Bridgestone Dueller HP Sport, that the car came with. So I am super pleased!

Latest Bridgestone Dueler All Terrain AT002 Reviews

Given 76% while driving a Toyota Landcruiser (265/70 R17) on mostly town for 300 average miles
After a long research and deliberation, I purchased these tyres at Costco. The runner-ups were Falken Wildpeak AT4W and BFGoodrich Trail Terrain T/A. My old tyre was Pirelli Scorpion A/T Plus.

My interest was good handling on bitumen, yet good grip on unsealed roads. I wanted a quiet and soft ride. These tyres seemed to have combined it best. I like their understated sidewall appearance. The ride was soft and pliable.

The reviewer Ozeman has reviewed these A/T002 tyres (and other in the list). He said the tyres had a low grip in the mid-corner. I might have felt something of the kind, but it would be hard to tell from the other tyres.

I forewent the Falken tyres because I thought they would be worse handling on the bitumen because of the chunkier lugs and a smaller lugs-to-void ratio. I forewent the BF Goodrich tyres because every reviewer gave low marks for its wet grip and for dry handling. The BF Goodrich tyre apparently was very good for driving in snow which was useless to me as I lived in Australia. Conversely, the reviewers knocked the marks off the Bridgestone tyre because it had a low snow grip... which, again, was not an issue for me.

This tyre is made in Europe, India, Thailand, Indonesia. I got the Indonesian-made one. It was manufactured two weeks before I bought them. In theory, they should be the same. In my practice, generally, there are differences. I observed lots of vent spews -- I wish the build quality was better. The side wall of my tyre was smooth. The markings and sicoloration was easily noticeable on the tyre wall, compared with the tyrewall of, say D697 which had a corrugated surface.

I hope the tyres would serve me even longer than the Pirelli tyres did (a set of 5 of the latter lasted me 70k km). By the way, I felt the Pirelli tyres was a good choice for me. They handled well on bitumen (which seems to be a special feature of the Pirelli tyres), they had a good grip straight to the end of their life. And they performed reasonably well off-road -- like any other mild A/T tyre would.

In conclusion; I want to believe that the tyres from the first-tier brand would keep its quality throughout the whole life. I am somewhat disappointed by the appearance of the lower build quality. Also, a bit of disappointment is the plain-looking sidewall (I hoped for something better). I chose to mount the tyre with the white letters inside, because I did not want the hassle of constantly caring for the appearance of the white lettering which would fade eventually, anyway.

I suspect the tyres are still in the "break-in" period, and may get firmer after a few hundred kilometres more.

Given 53% while driving a Mitsubishi triton (265/65 R17) on a combination of roads for 1,500 spirited miles
Driven 2000+km with them fitted on low mileage small 4x4 with upgraded suspension & they are close to being the worst Tyres/Tires I have ever owned. And no matter what they say, the sidewalls on these are too soft and the tread footprint is too small and therefore it feels feels like you chassis is floating on jelly. Because of this you have to run them at between 40lb and 45lb ( cold) just to be able to get a stable responsive ride, but then (of course) you get an extremely rough ride. They are very quiet on new bitumen roads in the cities but buzz loudly on the older bitumen, and on gravel you have to yell to communicate with passengers they are so loud. They grip well in the wet & dry on straight and slight bends but under-steer on sharper bends, especially in the wet. I had a set of cheap Monsta Terrain Grippers before these and yes, they where noisy but at least they felt stable and where better in the wet. They had a much wider footprint on the road and the handling was so much better than these Duelers.

Given 100% while driving a Ford Ranger (265/60 R18) on a combination of roads for 400 easy going miles
Bought these for my Ford Ranger based in the UK. Early days but so far excellent grip on dry and wet roads, no aquaplaning in heavy rain. Have noticed on mud im able to move along in 2WD whereas on the OEM Continental tyres I would have to select 4WD. Performance in light wet snow on UK roads has been excellent. Waiting for heavy snow to assess further. Slight rumbling from tread pattern at ~28mph but you have to really listen for it. Otherwise completely on par noise wise with previous conti tyres. Highway speed any tyre noise is overridden by wind noise from mirrors. Ride comfort is excellent and mpg is 0.5mpg average better than Conti's. Run tyres at 35psi inline with ECE117 tyre label rating reg. when driving on asphalt. Will review further when have higher wear but so far so good.

Early days yet but these are surprisingly quiet and comfortable on the road for what is a proper all-terrain tyre. A great alternative to the Yokohama G015, which is no longer available in the 195/80R15 size. They look really good, too.
