Bridgestone Turanza EL440 Owner Reviews

Review this tyre

What owners say summarised from 18 reviews

Short tread life and road noise dominate owner feedback on the Bridgestone Turanza EL440, with eight and seven complaints respectively across 18 reviews. Overall satisfaction is low, averaging 40.9%, with nine negative, eight neutral and one positive review. Four comments criticise ride comfort and five question value, while dry and wet grip impressions are divided. Several mid-life and end-of-life accounts describe noise increasing with wear, though there are no repeat reviews establishing how consistently that happens. A few owners like the steering feedback, but that limited praise does not outweigh the recurring wear, noise and comfort complaints.

Just left the Lexus dealer after an oil change and tire rotation. 28,323 and the car needs new tires. Really? These OEM tires are junk. Rotated every 5K during oil change and probably 75% of the miles are highway. Don't EVER buy these.

Great tires! Lots of reviews say they’re bad but I never has any problems with them. Great grip and handling!

Bought 2021 Camry new. It has 29K mikes & was told it needs new tires at the dealership. Got a 2nd opinion & they believe I’m close to needing a new set. Leas than 30k & needing new tires is crazy. These have been regularly balanced & rotated with oil changes every 5k miles. I’m so surprised to see the cost of this particular brand of tires. Not happy!

OEM tire on a 2022 Camry SE. Extremely poor traction in all conditions, including dry weather on good road surfaces. Extensive skidding under hard braking with poor control ability, combined with excessive stopping distance. Limited grip is noticeable under even the mildest of spirited driving. Considered these tires unsafe with under 200 miles (yes, two hundred) and replaced them with a competing, premium brand that cost less yet immediately remedied all of the above concerns.

OEM tire with my CX 30 and have 6000 miles on them in mostly city driving. These tires are noisy! and the comfort is not the greatest. The Turanzas do have good feedback and seem adequate in the wet and light snow. When pushing the CX 30 it does feel confident to a degree with trust in the tires. After a certain point tho you do back off due to the weight transfer of the car, not attributed to the tires. Would I buy them again? Yes I probably would, then change them out for a dedicated winter tire when the cold arrives.
