Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 vs Nokian Seasonproof 2
The data paints a clear seasonal split. Bridgestone consistently delivers the shortest dry braking and strong dry balance, with decent wet pace. Nokian counters with class-leading winter capability and, crucially, best-in-test wet performance in the SUV-size test. Rolling resistance trades places test-to-test, and comfort/noise metrics are close, setting up a choice between dry-road sharpness and all-weather security.
Test Results
Independent comparison tire tests are the best source of data to get tire information from, and the good news is there have been two tests which compare both tires directly!
| Tire | Test Wins | Performance |
|---|---|---|
| Nokian Seasonproof 2 | two |
While it might look like the Nokian Seasonproof 2 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.

Real World Driver Reviews
Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 Driver Reviews
Drivers generally describe the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 as a confidence-inspiring all-season tire with strong wet performance (including good aquaplaning resistance) and very capable dry grip that can feel close to a summer tire. Comfort and refinement are frequently praised, with many finding it quiet and plush for daily touring, alongside solid tread life expectations. A recurring minority drawback is a numb/soft steering feel that reduces "fun" and feedback, with some also noting slightly higher rolling resistance/fuel use and occasional motorway-speed harshness or noise.

Nokian Seasonproof 2 Driver Reviews
Drivers report the Nokian Seasonproof 2 is a very confidence-inspiring all-season tire, with standout wet-road grip/aquaplaning resistance and strong braking, plus surprisingly capable performance on snow and even ice for many users. Comfort and road noise are frequently praised, with several noting a quieter, smoother ride than previous tires. A smaller minority mention a less-direct or "floaty/squirmy" steering feel at higher speeds (notably on certain cars), which was severe for one low-scoring review.
Based on 18 reviews with an average rating of 84%
Conclusion
Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 excels when the road is warm and dry, repeatedly topping dry braking and feeling tidy and quiet. However, it lags in snow across both tests and, in the SUV size, gave up meaningful ground in wet braking and handling. If your winters are light and you value crisp dry manners with low noise, Bridgestone fits. If you want confident wet and winter security without sacrificing day-to-day comfort, Nokian is the safer, more versatile pick.
Key Differences
- Overall results: Nokian won both tests; Bridgestone finished mid-pack.
- Dry braking: Bridgestone shorter in both tests (e.g., 36.54 m vs 37.83 m in SUV size).
- Wet performance (SUV size): Nokian clearly ahead in braking and handling (e.g., 30.46 m vs 32.69 m wet braking).
- Snow: Nokian decisively better across braking, traction, and handling in both tests.
- Aquaplaning: Nokian edged Bridgestone in straight and curved aquaplaning in SUV size; essentially level in the 16-inch test.
- Refinement: Bridgestone slightly quieter subjectively; Nokian recorded lower measured dB in SUV test.

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.
