Data updated

Which should you buy?

Pick the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 if you want the more consistent all-round performance, especially for dry braking and generally strong wet safety. Choose the Toyo Celsius AS2 if you prioritize mileage and low running-cost metrics and you are comfortable with its more variable wet results and the repeated warnings about snow performance, particularly in Auto Bild's 2026 test.

Where the Turanza All Season 6 is stronger

  • Consistently shorter dry braking than Toyo, around 5 to 8% in every shared test set (Auto Bild 2023-2026 and the braking qualifiers).
  • Usually strong wet braking and stable all-round wet performance, often beating Toyo clearly (Auto Bild 2023, 2024, 2025, Sport Car 2024, SUV 2023).
  • Generally better snow traction and snow handling than Toyo in most shared full tests (Auto Bild 2023, SUV 2023, Sport Car 2024, Auto Bild 2024 and 2025).

Wins count every measurement the shared tests recorded for both tires; a tick marks the tire ahead on that line. Subjective driver scores count as wins but are never averaged, because each test uses its own scale.

Head to head in 10 tests, 2023 to 2026

Each row is one published test in which both tires ran on the same car, in the same size, on the same day. The line is the whole field, winner on the left.

Point at or tap any spoke for both tires' figures.

In each test the better of the two figures counts as 100% and the other as its share of it, so a 118 ft stop against 112 ft is 95%; each spoke averages the shared tests that recorded it. The scale stops at 92%: a point further in sits on the hub's edge, hollow. 3 measurements recorded in only one shared test are left off; every measurement is in the table further down.

Braking distances and lap times are better when lower; speeds, wear and grip figures when higher. A test's figures are its own: sizes, cars, surfaces and temperatures differ from one to the next, which is why the averages here are only ever of tests the two tires shared. "Scored" rows are subjective driver ratings: each test uses its own scale, so only the wins are counted.

Scores beyond the shared tests

Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6

  • 79%from 44 reviews
  • 76%would buy again
  • 393,509 milesdriven by reviewers

Owners broadly rate the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 as a very safe, summer-leaning all-season tire, with a clear consensus around strong wet grip (mentioned by over half of reviewers) and similarly impressive dry grip. Snow traction is generally described as capable for occasional winter use, and around a third of owners also report encouraging tread life. The main drawbacks are feel and efficiency: around one in four owners complain of numb steering feedback and a similar share report higher rolling resistance/fuel consumption, while road noise is divisive with near-even praise and criticism.

  • Very strong wet grip and confidence in heavy rain
  • High dry grip that feels close to a summer tire
  • Capable snow traction for light to moderate winter conditions
  • Good tread life for year-round use
  • Numb steering feel and limited feedback near the limit
  • Higher rolling resistance and a noticeable fuel economy hit for some
  • Road noise can be intrusive on certain surfaces, despite others finding it quiet

Summarised by AI from 43 vetted reviews; the reviews themselves are on the tire page.

Now nearly 2 years and 20k miles in. These tires are still as good as they were new and tread has only dropped to 5-6mm all round, suggesting >40,000 miles a set which is more than the OE Pirelli P7 summer tires managed. Have experienced winter slush and light snow without any grip issues, when the car felt stable and safe, but as I live on the south coast with regular trips to family in Yorkshire, they don’t need to be a dedicated winter tire. Economy unchanged around 45mpg overall, 50mpg on a motorway run. For my use, these have been very impressive and I would be happy to replace them with another set, although there may be even better choices in 3 years when these should be just about done.

Toyo Celsius AS2

  • 82%from 6 reviews
  • 83%would buy again
  • 25,800 milesdriven by reviewers

Drivers report the Toyo Celsius AS2 tire delivers a notably comfortable, quiet ride with strong wet-road security and good resistance to aquaplaning. Most users also find dry grip solid and winter/snow capability surprisingly competent for an all-season, with only minor impacts on fuel economy. A recurring trade-off is a softer, more comfort-oriented feel that can come across as slightly spongy or less sharp in handling compared with sportier summer tires.

  • High comfort/ride quality
  • Low road noise
  • Strong wet grip and stability
  • Good resistance to aquaplaning
  • Softer, less sporty steering/handling feel (slightly spongy)

This is just my initial review of them after around 1K miles, I've fitted these on my girlfriend's car since both her summer and winter sets were getting long in the tooth. The car doesn't get driven that much, and when it does it's mostly through town so I swallowed my tire snobbery and decided all-seasons would be a good fit. I didn't get to test them in the snow however so far they've been really good in both wet and dry but what surprised me the most was the ride quality and the (lack of) noise. Fuel consumption doesn't seem to be affected that much either. I got a really good deal on them, less than €60/tire, when most of the midrange competition is priced at 70 and above so I'm really happy with the purchase. Made in Japan too.

Reading the results

Written from the test results and owner reviews above. It is analysis, not a measurement: where it and the tables disagree, the tables are right.

These two tires have been measured head to head in 10 independent tests, mainly Auto Bild's all-season tests and braking qualifiers from 2023 to 2026, plus Auto Bild's 2023 SUV all-season test and the 2024 Sport Car all-season test. Across those shared results, the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 finishes ahead overall every time, often by a clear margin in the full group tests.

The pattern is fairly consistent. Bridgestone repeatedly delivers the shorter dry stop and usually the stronger all-round wet and snow balance, while the Toyo Celsius AS2's best moments come in specific wet disciplines and in the running-cost metrics, where its predicted mileage and cost-per-distance figures are regularly stronger.

Conclusion

Looking across the shared tests, the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 is the more consistently high-performing tire in objective safety and performance measures. In Auto Bild's 2023, 2025 and 2026 all-season tests it is ahead overall, and it also tops the associated 30 to 35-tire braking qualifiers in 2023, 2025 and 2026. The clearest repeated advantage is dry braking, where Bridgestone is around 5 to 8% shorter than the Toyo in every shared dataset shown. It also tends to have the edge in dry handling, and in most of these tests it posts the shorter wet braking too, sometimes by a large margin, for example in Auto Bild's 2024 and 2025 all-season tests.

The Toyo Celsius AS2's case rests on two things that do show up more than once. First, it can be very strong on certain wet handling measures, most notably in Auto Bild's 2026 all-season test where it leads wet braking by about 2%, wet handling by around 4%, and wet circle time by about 7%, with Auto Bild calling it the best all-season tire in the wet in that test. Second, it is repeatedly better for longevity and calculated running costs in the Auto Bild group tests, typically offering roughly 11 to 17% more projected mileage and lower cost-per-distance figures.

Winter performance is the main complication. In Auto Bild's 2026 all-season test both tires are described as weak on snow, but Toyo is singled out as particularly poor there, while Bridgestone is also in the bottom group for snow braking and slalom. Outside that one test, Bridgestone more often leads the Toyo on snow traction and handling (including Auto Bild's 2023 all-season test, 2023 SUV all-season test and 2024 Sport Car test), with Toyo only occasionally nicking snow braking or a snow cornering metric by a small margin. If you want the more dependable all-rounder for mixed weather driving with strong dry safety, the Bridgestone is the safer bet based on these tests. If your priority is mileage and you mainly want a tire that can be excellent in the wet on the right day, the Toyo can make sense, but the snow results in particular are harder to ignore.

Where this data comes from

Finishing positions and measurements are transcribed from each published test. A test only counts here when both tires ran in it, so every figure was recorded on the same car, size and day as the one it is compared to.

About the TR Score

The Tire Reviews Score rates each tire out of 10 from every independent test result and vetted owner review we hold, so two tires can be compared even before a test has run them together.

Who does the testing

Every test published as a Tire Reviews test is run by Jonathan Benson, who has been testing tires independently since 2007.
