3 years into the tires, i can say great grip in the wet and dry all from 5C to 40C degree weather.
When driving agressively, the sidewall flex is quite big, so you feel you're losing grip while youre actually just flexing the tire sideways. Besides that great handling tires, have nothing against them, will most likely buy again. on about 4-5mm of tread after about 25k miles, which is pretty good for my driving style.

About to change my T005 tires for something else (probably Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance ones), I'd rate them as an "alright" tire with not very sporty characteristics. Meaning they are noticeably less suitable for my Alfa 146 than the Toyo Proxes CF2's I had before them (have posted a "mid life" review & an "end of life" review for that tire also).
Regarding dry grip, the do grip well which is why I've given them "9", but they are very unhappy after just 4-5 minutes of spirited cornering. You can feel the tire getting "tired" after that.
Wet grip, again a "9" there, only once lost a bit of traction because I was indeed pushing things along - however they were easy to recover with quite a predictable amount of opposite lock. Was very satisfied by their progressiveness at the limit on that wet day.
Road feedback, not so good, it isn't a sporty tire, Alfas always have very communicative steering, and mine unfortunately has "lost" about 40% of its feedback from day 1 with these tires. Which is a shame. A "6" there from me.
Wear gets "7" by my observations, having lost ~ 3mm of tread in just 14.000 km (8,700 miles) in 4 years.
Comfort gets "7", they are a bit noisy. And they got a bit noisier still, after just 14.000 km (8,700 miles), something which I was not too happy about.
Would I buy again? Given little other choice, yes I probably would, hence the "7" in that category as well. Going for the Goodyears mentioned above, see how they will fare. Changing them purely for their age, they are slightly over 4 years old.
The one area which they do absolutely excel, rolling resistance, indeed I was getting great fuel consumption figures right from day 1. I do value that a lot given how expensive fuel has become here in Greece. The EfficientGrip Performance in my dimension (195/45/16) is rated "A" in rolling resistance, so expectations are slightly higher than the "B"-rated T005s.

I use these tires on my everyday car. It’s safe and worth the price. The only small negative is the noise, but this is not a problem for everyone.

covered 20k miles in 3 years and all 4 tires are heavily cracked and need to be replaced to pass MOT.

They started to crack after 1 year i was advised at my service of the cracking,
at year 2 service i was again advised of cracking .
And at year 3 service advised all 4 tires are heavily cracked and need to be replaced.

Tire report shows 4mm tread leaft after 20k miles so in theory they could have gone another 20k if they didnt crack up so badly that they must be replaced.

i have beem driving since 1995 and have never had 4 tires all crack up at roughly the same time and same degree in 3 years use.

It has put me off this brand , despite the overall positive reviews these tires recieve.

My BMW 320d came with run flat tires but the driving was very stiff with a lot of noise and vibrations.
I call BMW ans questioned the type of tires that my car came originally.
It was non run flat 225/55/16R, the company that I bought the car paid for 4 new Bridzestone turanza.
I drove he car in weekly basis from Aberdeen to midlands and then from midlands to the south cost.
I drove any condition and time of the day and I never experienced any problem.
I really filled safe in any condition and also on rain and wet.
During the winter I was using winter tires - Michelin alpine since the BMW is dangerous driving on snow with summer tires.
I had only one flat, actually one small screw from one of my garage projects penetrated into the tire, I removed it after hundreds of miles and plug it.
Best tire ever.
I have tested other Bridgestone types in my old E30, michelin, vredestein and others but the specific tire appears flexible, safe, reliable, longlasting, trustworthy.
I was running the tire at the mid and higher pressures even when it was empty.
This is my first review for car tires.

Very good it saved me from a carambola. When my front one came to a sudden stop skidding in heavy rain I braked hard and the tire saved me by stopping without skidding. Excellent, I will put it again for sure

Tire is very soft it has a good grip on the road handling also on turns, is fuel-efficient, and can run 50 000 km (tested on my car with new Bridgestone Turanza t005 tires 205 55 16). The biggest setback is the soft walls on the tire, they are vulnerable to any road hole or obstacle that will grope on the tire wall. Eventually, it will form a bubble and start to lose pressure from it.

Had these on the fronts of a new Mazda and lasted me 15k miles , nearside probably had another 1k miles in them when I changed as a pair. Usually on previous cars driving on same roads I usually only get 11 or 12k miles from other brands such as Michelin, Goodyear etc. But on different cars.
I do feel accassionial rear end slip when turning quickly but that was when they were towards the end of their life with a few millimetres remaining. Strange thing I did notice about when replacing these is that you can buy the same named tire with completely different tire data. I've seen A or B in wet, A or B in RR /fuel and between 66 and 70 decibels in road noise? I paid an extra £5 a side, at £111.00 each fitted for the 66 decibel tire. So should be a lot quieter.
I also purchased these tires due to good road tests reviews and tire data of Fuel Efficiency B, Wet Grip A, Noise Rating A-66dB.
But as I mentioned earlier they do come strangley come with same name but different EU tire labal data.

I can’t believe that these are factory fit on Audi S3 8V. They seem to be well suited to the lower power models with less braking capacity and performance due to getting very good economy and being quiet. However they are not right for a car with 310 bhp, it can break traction easily in the wet on these and in the dry on perfect roads the abs cuts in with only moderate braking. I thought the car might just be a bit too much for tires but I ran crossclimates over winter and these had better grip in all conditions (even on warm days) and substantially shorter stopping distances. I think these tires have a place but they don’t shine on more powerful cars, they have been fitted in a smaller size on a company Passat and on that car I don’t really have any complaints, they perform similarly to the Continental EcoContacts that it left the factory with

very nice tires. I have never had problems with grip or handling (sensible driving mostly). Rolling and fuel consumption were descent too. They generally felt a bit better than my previous michelins. I had to change them at 35000klm due ton unrepearable puncture from a screw, but they were too expensive to buy again. The wear was good enough to go for several months though.

Bought these tires as I had a puncture on one of my old fronts. On the old (cheap) tires I noticed poor wet grip, and a general lack of feel from the tires. I applied these tires to the front only, the rears are still some cheap brand. The car has about 60hp, so not a lot of power, however due to lack of TC, it was actually pretty easy to spin the front wheels, even in the dry when starting spiritedly. After applying these tires, it is significantly more difficult to make this happen which is nice. The feel has been greatly improved with these tires, and the grip when going round a bend is noticeably greater. The feedback is enough to be pretty clear of where the limit is. The car feels more bitey and fun to drive. In the wet it's more of the same, I have a lot of faith in the front tires, and haven't found the car understeery at all with them.

Tires I'm reviewing are marked as T005A, which are apparently Asian-specific model of T005 with emphasis on wet performance. They were also the factory tire on my car. In my opinion they are pretty comfortable for such a low profile tire, their wet performance seems pretty good (had zero issues with them). The softness goes a bit against the feedback they give from the road, so in the dry they are not the most confidence inspiring tires. I cannot judge the rolling resistance, as these are the first summer tires on the car. Currently at 7mm after roughly 5000 miles, but I haven't measured the original tread depth, so we'll see after another summer, how long lasting are they (which according to other reviews is their weak spot).
