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.

Review Summary

Based on 17 user reviews

Across 17 reviews, the Bridgestone Turanza Serenity Plus is generally praised for delivering a very quiet ride and outstanding tread life, with secure, predictable dry grip befitting a touring tyre. Several high-scoring owners also report confident wet performance, though a noticeable minority experienced reduced wet grip or aquaplaning at higher speeds and in tricky conditions. Ride quality can feel firm/harsh on some vehicles, and steering feel isn't particularly sporty. Overall sentiment is slightly positive, skewing toward comfort and longevity over performance.

Strengths
  • Low road noise/quiet cabin
  • Long tread life/slow wear
  • Secure/predictable dry grip
  • Stable touring manners
Areas for Improvement
  • Firm/harsh ride on some vehicles
  • Reduced wet grip or aquaplaning at the limit

Top 3 Bridgestone Turanza Serenity Plus Reviews

Given 87% while driving a Mazda 2 1.5 sport (185/55 R15) on mostly country roads for 10,000 average miles
These came on a Mazda2 I purchased second hand. The level of dry grip compared to other tyres I've had on small cars was astounding. Roundabouts that would have tyres squealing and under-steering at 60km/hr these sailed through at 80km/hr in full control. In the wet have full confidence in them, they seem resistent to aqua-planing and seem to have excellent grip after first rains following summer when roads can be particulatly slippery. Road noise is also excellent, only on coarse chip are they noisy, however it is an eco-car they're on. A real surprise, they are holding upto gravel roads quite well. I believe they are discontinued in the Australian market which is a shame as I'd buy again without hesitation.

Given 100% while driving a Honda HRV (215/55 R17) on a combination of roads for 0 easy going miles
They really are quiet! Bought to replace the factory Dunlops on my HRV. Hondas are very loud cars especially on course highways so did a lot of research and bought the Turanza Serenity's on a 4 for 3 special. Its totally changed the car, its now much quieter and there is no ROAR on the highway. If you have a HRV just get a set and enjoy the Serenity.

Dry grip is ok, but wet grip is not as good and leaves me less confident, I wouldn't push it on wet roads.
Wear rate is very slow, comfort I found it a little harsher than my previous set of tires.

Given 63% while driving a Ford Falcon XF X_PAK (225/45 R17) on mostly town for 12,000 spirited miles
Almost 2 years down on a BA xr6 turbo and I am finding the Bridgestone Turanza Serenity Plus tires mostly adequate. Prompted today to leave a review after a slower than usual wet lap to the shops disappointed with significant under steer on a couple of corners at a lower speed (55kph) than I would normally expect, which has lessened my overall opinion of these. It's end of winter too so the roads shouldn't be that oily. Plenty of tread left should get several more years from these.
Road noise reduction seems very good, can't fault dry grip although I don't feel as though I've adequately tested this ;)

Given 74% while driving a Subaru Impreza GX AWD (195/65 R15) on mostly country roads for 3,000 average miles
Had on for a New Zealand winter. Seemed stable and predictable in all weather and conditions. Not a full winter tyre but a good option in NZ where it snows one day and is 18'c the next. Quiet too for grip level

Given 58% while driving a Honda Accord Euro (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 3,000 spirited miles
Figured I might as well review these tyres which were fitted by the previous owner after switching to a set of Michelin PS5. For daily easy-going driving, these tyres are perfect adequate. The grip level is decent in both the dry and wet, nothing spectacular but would be perfectly fine for most people. For on the limit, spirited driving, they break into understeer quite quickly, and the is 0 steering feel, little to no steering feedback, but that's not what theyre for ultimately. Comfort is good, and they are pretty quiet. Since I enjoy spirited driving I ended swapping out these tyres, but for most people who don't drive with their pants on fire, these are a perfectly safe and adequate choice to go for.

Given 97% while driving a Kia Motors Seltos Sports Plus (215/55 R17) on mostly country roads for 6,200 average miles
I cant believe the "bad" reviews these tires have, especially the guy that had them for one whole day then returned them because he thought they were noisy. Noise depends on many things from body deadening, suspension to tire height/profile so whats noisy on one car will be quiet on others, like how can someone rate wet/dry grip, longevity and handling after driving a few hours - pathetic!

I've had these tires a few months now doing a bit over 10,000kms on them in a mix of long country and city driving, they replaced the factory Kumhos on my Kia and I've been in love with them ever since driving out the Bridgestone dealers yard.

They are soooooo much quieter than the kumhos, grip is amazing in both wet and dry, the road holding excellent. The tread is miles deep and I expect to get at least 80,000kms out of them, I've read some people get 100,000! Amazing considering the terrible Kumho Ecsta 51's lasted me a little over 30,000kms, they used to aquaplane in the smallest of puddles making wet weather driving quite an anxiety filled horror show.

Not the Bridgestone turanza serenity plus, I can drive with confidence in the wet now they're fantastic no matter the road conditions.

The only thing I could pick wrong with them is the ride is a little harsh compared to the Kumho, like you feel every tiny bump and stone in the road, though sometimes a good thing if you like that sporty road handling but for me not so much in my small suv.

Overall though I'm very happy with the purchase as these really are great tires.
I'm definitely buying these again.

Given 80% while driving a MINI Clubman (225/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 18,000 spirited miles
Fitted to a MINI JCW, tyres are quieter, smoother, and far better in the wet than the OEM P Zeros.
Dry handling not quite as good, but easily good enough for my driving.
18,000 klms so far and hardly any wear so far.
Very happy with these Turanza.

Given 70% while driving a Toyota Corolla (205/55 R16) on a combination of roads for 0 spirited miles
Touring tyre. Had dunlop sp originally handling on corolla was good and 70k before change. Serenity+ was way more quite and smooth. Up to 100k and still have few mm left but handling is numb and respone is slower but still feels safe. This is how corollas should be. Got them on my camry too with special. I remember rocks love getting stuck in tread when new more then other tyres but went away after a little bit.
Would not recommend if you want sporty but great family tyre duty and i may get again if its still around.

Given 38% while driving a Mercedes Benz 300ce (195/65 R15) on mostly town for 500 easy going miles
i purchased a mercedes 300ce with 11 year old michelins fitted, they still had 80% tread left and looked new but car not used much, decided to change because of age, wanted a quite smooth tyre and was talked into bridgestone turanza serenity plus by the dealer, when i picked up the fitted tyres was concerned how much weight was needed to balance, the invoice said balanced heavy, as soon as i drove the car i knew, they are the worst tyres i have ever had, noisy as and the car drove like a truck, very rough ride, pressures checked, dealer exchanged them for michelin xm2+ at a penalty and it was a different car, smooth and QUITE as, the fitter told me the bridgestones are a very heavy tyre made for long life that is not a priority for me,.

Given 76% while driving a Honda Fit (Jazz) (175/65 R14) on a combination of roads for 50,000 average miles
Ive got this tyre x 4 for my daily driven honda jazz gd3. After 80k kms of milliage, the front thread was only down to 60% while the rear was still at 85%. Really impressed with its wear rate. The dry grip is alright but the wet grip is mediocre. If the road is damp and your in a roundabout, you could easily do sideways if you mash the paddle too much. But if you just drive sensibly, it is alright. Overall, i am happy with this tyre, its super comfort (probably due to my 65 profile tyre), very cheap, and most of all it last long. If your looking for a daily drive tyre, affordable and longevity tyre, this is definitely the tyre for you tbh. But if you want performance tyre, do look elsewhere as you’ll be disappointed with this one.

Given 13% while driving a Ford ba falcon (215/60 R16) on a combination of roads for 250 average miles
Would never ever buy these tyres again. Hard, inflexible, harsh and bumpy ride. Replaced them within days. Bridgestone claims they last 50,000 km but I couldn't bear more than a few 100 KMs on them. Went back to Dunlops.

Swapped Potenza's on my Peugeot 3008 for these to achieve a quieter less harsh ride. LOVE 'EM!! The Potenza's were excellent road holding but transmitted too much road noise for my diminshed hearing So far (500km) I find road holding superb, a softer much quieter ride. It remains to be seen as to the longevity with the softer compound but.....
