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.

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.....

I have driven 70,000km on these tyres and still have tread left. Wear rate is excellent. Dry grip is quite good as is damp road grip however, these tyres aquaplane at any speed over 70km/h with only millimetres of water on the road. Noise level in general is acceptable, but they can make a loud whirring noise on roads with lots of camber and they make a slurping noise on smooth surfaces.Overall the lack of wet grip is a deal breaker for me, I will not be purchasing this brand or model again.

I have these tyres fitted to a Hynudai i30cw, and went with the tyre fitters recommendation because they didn't have what I wanted. the tyres they replaced were the Bridgestone Ecopia PZ-X, so i was expecting the goods given I was after a quiet eco tyre.
These Turanzas have more rolling resistance, and it is evident by an increase in fuel consumption by about 10%, however the road holding characteristics of them is superb. they have an incredibly flat contact patch and probably the widest footprint I've seen for a 195 tyre.
They are quiet. very quiet. on very smooth pavement under hard acceleration they do make a strange slupry noise, but who cares when you can easily corner 15% faster with no tyre noise/squealing.
on wet roads they grip well, and at highway speeds they pump out the spray more than any other tyre I've had on this car.
