Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 vs Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3

This head-to-head puts two new-wave premium touring all-season tires under the microscope: Bridgestone's Turanza All Season 6 versus Pirelli's Cinturato All Season SF3. Across 11 shared tests spanning hatchback, SUV, and even camper-van fitments, both consistently score near the top, but they get there in different ways.

Pirelli stacks up more overall wins and repeatedly leads key safety-critical metrics such as wet handling, aquaplaning resistance and winter capability, often by meaningful margins. Bridgestone counters with excellent wet braking, competitive dry handling feel, strong aquaplaning in some tests, and standout tread life and value-making it a compelling choice for mild climates and cost-conscious buyers.

While it might look like the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 is better than the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 purely based on the higher number of test wins, tires are very complicated objects which means where one tire is better than the other can be more important in real world use.

Let's look at how the two tires compare across multiple tire test categories.

Key Strengths

  • Outstanding tread life and low cost per 1,000 km (e.g., +30% wear advantage in multiple tests)
  • Strong wet braking consistency (often top or near-top; e.g., 50.5 m vs 53.5 m in AB 225/50 R17)
  • Stable dry-road feel in several tests and good limit behavior
  • Good value proposition with competitive pricing and fuel use
  • Best-in-class breadth: wins most overall tests (8/11) and leads wet handling and aquaplaning
  • Superior winter capability: stronger snow traction/handling and ice braking/traction
  • Shorter dry and wet braking in many sizes (e.g., −5.5% wet braking in TR 235/35 R19)
  • Low noise and lower rolling resistance in most comparisons

Dry Braking

Looking at data from ten tire tests, the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 was better during eight dry braking tests. On average the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 stopped the vehicle in 1.21% less distance than the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6.

Hi, I've done around 500km on new Turanza, mainly in city. I've got Mondeo mk4 1.6TDCI after chip. I've used previously Vredestein Quatrac Pro. I've have tested so far Bridgestone on the dry and wet in 20-5C. So far they more comfortable than Vredestein Quatrac Pro, noise is around the same (so they rather quiet tires - I've been using 225/50 R17 (not a standard Mondeo mk4, but similiar size (a bit bigger than standard 215/50R17 and smaller than next standard tire 235/45R18))). On dry Bridgestones are more gripper than Vredestein and on wet the are excellent compared to Vredestein. On Quatrac... Continue reading this review using the link below

Given 80% 255/35 R19 on a combination of roads for 3,000 spirited miles
Genuinely seriously impressive tire. I decided to use these as a winter tire as I live in Scotland.

In dry conditions manages to have acceptable levels of grip in a straight line, slight wheel spin sometimes but cannot complain since the M2 is RWD 365bhp.

Very strong tire in the dry and super progressive, really lets you know when it does begin to slip when doing spirited driving. A big strong point as these tires still allow the vehicle to be driven in a sporting manner.

In the wet they are okay for wet straight line grip, it spins up pretty... Continue reading this review using the link below

Conclusion

Across the test set, the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 is the more complete all-season performer. It wins 8 of 11 tests and dominates categories that matter in changeable weather: wet handling, straight and curved aquaplaning, and snow/ice traction and control. It's also quieter and usually more efficient to roll. If you regularly face heavy rain or frequent winter conditions, Pirelli delivers the higher safety ceiling.

The Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 shines with consistently short wet braking, confidence-inspiring dry road manners in several tests, and class-leading longevity with lower cost per 1,000 km. If you drive mostly in temperate climates with rare snow, want long life and better value, and still expect solid wet stopping, Bridgestone is the smarter buy. In short: Pirelli for year-round performance breadth and foul-weather assurance; Bridgestone for durability-driven value without giving up core safety.
Key Differences
  • Wet dynamics: Pirelli consistently steers, grips, and resists aquaplaning better; Bridgestone often stops shorter in the wet but trails in wet handling.
  • Winter performance: Pirelli clearly ahead in snow traction/handling and ice metrics; Bridgestone is serviceable but weaker in snow.
  • Efficiency and comfort: Pirelli usually quieter with lower rolling resistance; Bridgestone can ride firmer and roll heavier in some tests.
  • Value and longevity: Bridgestone delivers significantly better wear and lower running cost; Pirelli's wear can be notably higher.

Footnote

This page has been developed using tire industry testing best practices. This means we are only comparing tests which have had both tires in the same test.

Why is this important? Tire testing is heavily affected by things like surface grip levels and surface temperature, which means you can only compare values from the same day. During a tire test external condition changes are calculated into the overall results, but it is not possible to calculate this between tire tests performed on different days or at different locations.

As a result you will see other tests on Tire Reviews which feature both the %s and %s, but as they weren't conducted on the same day, the results are not comparable.

Lots of other websites do this sort of tire comparison, Tire Reviews doesn't.
