Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 Reviews - Page 2

I don't recommed Bridgestone Enlinten Technology because it is making the tires uneven. I had to buy another 5th Bridgestone tire to test this and this one was also oval. The tire manufacture refuse to replace the tires because they see nothing wrong with it. The other tires that I bought are round, and the car glides on the highway. The other five brand new Bridgestone Turanza tires are sitting in the basement. They are total garbage and I don't want them. To test if tires are round, simply drive for 5 minutes with a cup of water on the dashboard to test it. If the water spills, the test is failed.

Having a big rolling resistance, the car tilts on curves pretty bad. The material from which the tire is made is soft and that is why the car tilts quite strongly on the curves. Compared to the Michelin Cross Climate 2, Bridgestone tyres are better on dry asphalt and wet, but overall the car does not have a good driving feeling. It requires checking the pressure quite often considering that all 4 lose pressure simultaneously. The car overall feels rough on pits and bumps, but soft in curves. Tires are sensitive to alternating temperatures warm-cold (the climate in Romania this summer in which one day is 35 degrees and the next 25 degrees). They have always required a much higher pressure than one that would be comfortable for driving on bumpy roads or with potholes. With this in mind, the suspension of the car suffers in the long run due to these tires. Overall, I do not recommend for the driving experience, the overall feel of the car, even if on dry and wet are good.

Dry and wet grip great, snow grip acceptable. Fuel economy slightly down to about 40mpg from 41-42 mpg with CC+/CC2. Wear rate great, in 205/55R16 on Honda Civic 1.8 i-VTEC, I estimate 31400 miles until legal limit from new. Have seen some premature cracking in the tread blocks, especially on the fronts (for FWD) but doesn't seem to affect performance.

I recently switched to the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 from the OEM Michelin tires. I drive mostly on highways in Belgium with a relaxed driving style, and I was looking for a tire that offers better year-round safety, especially in wet and winter conditions, without needing full winter performance.

Wet traction is noticeably better than my previous Michelins—particularly during heavy rain, where the car now feels much more secure. Dry performance also feels fully adequate.

So far I’ve driven around 900 miles. I did notice a slight increase in fuel consumption compared to my previous tires, though that would likely be due to switching from a worn tire to a new one with deeper tread.

I don’t have a broad basis to compare detailed aspects like noise, vibration, or steering sharpness, but to me, everything feels balanced and comfortable, and I’m very happy with the switch overall.

I have just put the Turanza All Season 6 on my car. Before them I used Conti SC 5 SUV and Matador MP92. In the dry and wet the Bridgestones feel closer to the summer continentals with the exception of "soft rolling feel" which is rather similar to winter tyres. Otherwise the braking and handling is closer to the summer tyres. The comfort and noise level is very good, better then the Contis. It is too early to comment on wear or fuel consumption and I have not experienced freezing weather yet but based on their behaviour in the dry and wet I think they are great for any family car.

Fitted on a Suzuki Vitara 2021 4X4 to replace the manufacture's Continental Ecocontact 5. First time on an all-season tire on a relatively mild climate with average to bad quality roads in Greece. The tire performs excellent on dry almost like a summer tire with more noise. Wet handling is also very good with no surprises and felt very confident. I also drove light snow and the handling was great compared to a summer tire but average compared to a winter one, although if you don't push it, it will do the job, haven't tried ice. I also did a bit of offroading in muddy conditions and with the combination of Suzuki allgrip it was very good, way better than the OEM tires. I have only done about 5k km because I switch to summer one's on late spring, so far wear seems normal. I would definitely buy again as it was the cheapest choice of premium all-season tire I could get for my size and overall for mild winter conditions it's an excellent tire.

Mid life update @ 15k miles
Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 is awesome I really love these tires, dry grip is unbelievable on summer tire level and gets better as you wear the tire down. Lateral wet grip suffers after some wear just like a summer tire would because there are almost no sipes but the aggressive tread shape prevents any acquaplaning and wet braking/traction is still excellent, just be aware of slightly more understeer (progressive) in the wet as the tires wear down.
I am now at 6/32 so wear is good and even, these tires will last me around 30k miles which is good.
Driving in fresh snow is effortless, the tread design crunches the snow for extra grip and at the same time pushes out any slush/mud away from the tire, considering the width and angle of the grooves even better than a Michelin CrossClimate 2 so excellent tread design. Driving on ice is uncomfortable and a bit scary, I never slid or lost traction so the grip isn't lacking but the tire becomes very stiff and loud when cold (-17C) which makes you think you'll spin even if you don't, it's weird, safe but scary opposed to a softer tire.
Comfort is very good, at first I noticed some small vibrations in the steering wheel which bothered me at higher speeds even while going straight probably because of the super aggressive tread pattern but after some driving (3k miles) every vibration goes away. Tire noise is linear with temperature, cold=loud and hot=quiet you even notice this as you drive while tires warm up noise goes down, the compound is sensitive to temperature which is probably why on ice the tire is loud while during summer you barely notice. The only weird noise I had is a hum at precisely 58mph, not 57mph and below, not 59mph or above so it's negligible.
I'm super satisfied with the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 also because in my area it's the cheapest compared to Pirelli, Continental or Michelin all while sacrificing nothing (to be fair I haven't tested the Conti ASC2 but I had before Pirelli Cinturato SF, SF3 and Michelin CC2 and also Vredestein Quatrac Pro on this car)

Bought these to replace Bridgestone A005 Evo all season tyres. They are an improvement on these in every way and feel similar to the original BMW * marked Pirelli P7 in the dry, with the benefit of winter performance. The leap in technology over the last 10 years is incredible, so that I can have one tyre which is as good as the original summer tyre yet feels better to drive on in the wet/winter than the BMW winter tyres. So far, after 5000 miles, the tread has only dropped to 7mm suggesting around 50k miles from a set. Amazing! Managed to get them for £130 each too.

The more I drive them - the more I like them

To be honest first impression was underwhelming. I can confirm that the steering is quite numb around the center so the steering feeling is kinda exponential. But you get used to it when driving some time.
All in all the tyre behaves. It does not exite but rather does a good job in all conditions. It is a littlebit more slippery then Conti ASC 1 in snow but we rarely see any anyways nowadays. Rest of the summer it's behaving fine, even with tyre temperatures over 45 degrees no sign of smear or fade. The wear is also decent. My original pick were these or the Pirelli SF3s. To be honest I'm glad I've picked those over the pirellis because the wear is important if you drive a tyre 12 months a year. Very positively are two aspects: The tyres are quite Wide for the rim, so the car looks better. Second is the generous rim protector, driving mostly in town it's really good and already saved me some scratches.

All in all I would buy again in the year of 2025. After 13000kms around 6,4 - 6,8 mm tread is left.

I've bought a set of Turanza All-Season 6 as my winter tyres. I live in a mild climate (Belgium) so we rarely see snow and if we do most of our roads are gritted anyways. I'm pleasantly surprised by the amount of grip these have in the wet. Yes you still get some wheelspin if you floor it, but that is to be expected of any tyre. Even with the couple snowy days we got, I had more grip than what I was expecting. When brake testing or even under accelaration I did not lose grip as early as I was expecting. Also steering feedback compared to the OE Pirelli PZero in the dry or wet seems to be almost identical. It still feels like a sporty tyre, so you can still have some fun with it. The tyre also doesn't give off any more noise than an OE tyre, even whith it's almost tractor like tread pattern. All in all, I would definitely by another set of these for my winter tyres if these where worn out. Highly recommend for milder climates!

These are slightly quieter than the factory fitted tyres ( Michelin) and notice no difference in dry or wet in summer but noticeable increase in grip and handling in the typical Highlands cold/very wet roads, been a very cold and very wet previous winter and has handled the snowy bits quite well ( not as good as crossclimate 2's in the snow) coming into another winter here in the Highlands, so will see how this winter pans out.
Very pleased with the product and performance and at over £200 cheaper for a full set than the Michelins all seasons, very happy with the tyres.

Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 is a wonderful tire, the best all season I've ever had.
I can finally floor my Audi A3 (215hp) and there's no tire slip in the dry (Vredestein Quatrac Pro had some slip, Goodyear Vector4 Seasons gen 2 had lots of spin). Accelerating in wet conditions also kicks in the traction control for maybe 1/3rd of the pull (Vredestein Quatrac Pro was slightly worse, Goodyear Vector4 Seasons gen 2 spun ridiculously).
What surprised me with this tire is the feedback when cornering, feedback is insanely accurate feels like a summer tire and you gradually feel every degree of change through the steering and the input you give to correct the line, this applies not only for dry but all driving conditions. Vredestein Quatrac Pro had some delay when steering at high speeds and the steering felt much heavier, Goodyear Vector4 Seasons gen 2 understeered dangerously in the wet and felt soft like a winter tire in summer.
As for wear, I wore down 1/32 after 7.000km, considering new was 9/32 so I have 7/32 until 2/32, the tire should last 49.000km overall which is okay. Vredestein Quatrac Pro lasted me 85.000km but the tread was very hard towards the end, Goodyear Vector4 Seasons gen 2 lasted 35.000km because it started losing random chunks of rubber and had cracks like it was melting even though I didn't use them on the track lol.
Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 is soft and comfortable, dampens lots of cracks in the asphalt and they're quiet but due to the super aggressive tread design some small vibrations can be felt through the steering when going around 200-250km/h. Vredestein Quatrac Pro were much louder at 100km/h and above and passed some vibrations over cracks in the asphalt, pebbles and other irregularities. Goodyear Vector4 Seasons gen 2 were quiet.
I tested little slushy snow so and lots of mud (unpaved muddy/rocky roads, soft grass picknicking in woods, off-road in quarries) and these are the best roads tires I've ever tested on mud, they don't slip and catch very well all debris between the treads which help traction. You will get lots of water and mud splashing, pebbles and at one point I got twigs launching upwards lmao.
