Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6

The Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 ticks all of my boxes :
1) Wet : in 1987 I had a nasty accident in my Golf 2 because of aquaplaning, so behavior in the wet is my main concern. The Turanza is very good in the wet, be it braking, grip, or dispersing water.
2) Dry : I wanted an all season tire that comes close to a summer tire. The Turanza delivers.
3) Snow : I live in Flanders where we hardly get any snow. I don't need the best performance in wintery conditions. Compared to my previous experience with winter tires this tire clearly isn't as good. But, I just don't want to get stuck in snow, and I haven't so far. I have no experience on ice, though.
4) Comfort : contrary to magazine tests, I find this tire comfortable and very quiet. Some other testers on this site confirm. Perhaps there's a difference, depending on tire size. So, FYI front 225/40R19, rear 255/35R19.
Other remarks :
- I've noticed that my car is very neutral through bends on this tire, no under- or oversteer. Going on/off the gas in a curb doesn't change trajectory, really impressive.
- The only drawback with this tire is a lack of feedback, it feels numb, no steering feel.
- If I had to change tires today, I would buy again, as it ticks my boxes.
As a final remark : a big thank you to TireReviews.com, this is my goto website for tire info, and a big thank you to all private testers for sharing info. As a thank you I've written this review.

After 70,000 km and 5 years with my Opel Mokka, I have replaced the aging Vredestein Quatracs, which had recently increased chipping and tearing the tread on the front axle. (No, it wasn’t an alignment issue — the problem clearly worsened as the tires aged.)

In this size, the Bridgestones are very quiet and comfortable over bumps, which is a great benefit in city driving. On dry roads I would rate them higher than the Vredesteins; stability and handling feel more precise (which is still an overstatement for the Mokka and its balloon‑sized tires). The car feels a bit more stable at motorway speeds. I haven’t driven in heavy rain yet, but on wet roads the grip feels excellent. Overall, in both dry and wet conditions the tires feel almost like summer tires.

It’s too early to comment on wear, fuel consumption, or winter capabilities. This is my second purchase of the Bridgestone Turanza AS6 — I’ve been running them for over a year on another vehicle — so I’m putting my money where my mouth is ;-)

In general, I think they’re a great option if you want all‑season tires that feel closer to summer tires.

Exceptionally good all season tire for my needs. I preferred it for the superior wet performance in tests and I could feel it on the Swiss roads, very safe tire even in heavy rain conditions. Provides overall better performance in all conditions compared to the Kinergy 4S2 I had before. Since for me snow performance is just needed to come home safely in case I encounter a storm, I find it a very good fit for my needs and safe enough in these conditions. It is slightly more noisy but not in an annoying way. As always when comparing premium AS tires, the price is a huge factor; these were the cheapest premium tires I could buy, so they were great value as well. Michelin CC2 is double the price of these which for me is out of market, CC3 aren't manufactured in this size. Same goes for Continental. I will happily get them again if the price stays this competitive. The only tire I would consider to replace them with is the Pirelli SF3.

Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 are great all season tires. They replaced Michelin Cross Climate 2. For mileage comparison they have both lasted around 25000 on a front axel on a front wheel drive car and 50000 on the rears. the Bridgestone have still got more tread left compared to the Michelin by around 2mil a good improvement, but they are starting to crack on the tread now. The Bridgestone are noticeably more fun to drive give better steering response and feel more planted. The Michelins were nicer for cruising they soak up bumps and potholes much better and are quieter. Both were great in ice and frosty conditions and dealt with snow well. I am however going back to summer tires, they are way more fun to drive for the majority of seasons in the UK. I personally found both sets of the all seasons just not as fun to drive as good summer tires (obviously) I drive a lot of twisty B roads and they never felt as secure as summers or handle as well in wet conditions they are just ok. Also there's a notable difference in braking differences compared with summer tires they just seem to take a bit longer to come to a full stop than you expect.

I reviewed this tire before and I wasn't holding back, since then I experienced ALL parameters existing to test this tire, from snow and ice to monsoon type of rain to melting concrete.. so its time to finish my inital impressions on this tire.
Grip overall is there, no doubt about that, even if you cant feel it because of the lack of feedback. It takes time to develop trust toward these tires, and you will have to adjust as they get older and offer less. But the promised grip levels like you see on tests are there, I can confirm.

Warm/hot: The tires show a very different face when the temperature gets warmer. Interestingly they got louder but they behave much better than on cold, not the way you would expect from most 4 seasons. It wasnt bad in the cold but its much better now as the temperature is getting warm. Its late Spring.

Rain and wet: Total Domination, didnt manage to slip the tires yet, breaking is down, but its always down with every tire, its not as good as a Goodyear Eagle for example, but no need to worry about it. Cold AND wet together are a much more serius problem, and this tire doesnt have much confidence at that, I didnt spin out or anything, in fact I made some mountain runs just for curiousity and they hold up, but the lack of feedback... its killing this tire, even if you have a lot of grip in theory, feedback allows you to make the most out of it, and this tire is just a "trust me bro" kind of tire. Which is okay on an economy car with FWD or AWD, but in the GR its not a very pleasing experience. Drive it like a Corolla and its fine I guess.

Snow and ice: Snow grip is adequate, I didnt get stuck and it was a good 10-15cm snow (car almost bottomed out), it got me out even from a stuck position just had to reverse out, gearing is a bigger factor than this tire. You wont have problem wirth snow. (Also it was the icy kind of snow, not the fresh snowman type. Ice grip doesnt exist, I guess that is what you'd expect from a 4 season. Dont buy 4 season if you want to drive on ice, yes? Its not entirely unmanagable, but the tire is just there only to give you grip when you go OFF the ice.

Wear is none so far, its only 3000 miles so far, so would be very sad otherwise.

For non-sport cars, this is a great tire. I would buy it definetly for normal economy cars.. for a sports car.. well, you need to drive like its an economy car and you will be fine. Wet breaking is adequate, feedback is none. If you have the desire to drive spiritedly during the winter, I would have the CC3 Sport instead, in theory it has less overall performance, but much more feedback, and thats important for that kind of situation.

I bought them in the autumn as an alternative to classic winter tires and have recently switched back to summer tires. They are a great option for mild winters, it is essentially a winter tire oriented towards dry and wet performance in the cold. They feel more like a winter tire, indeed, especially when the temperatures rise above 15c degrees. Handling and braking in snowy conditions is adequate. On slush, the Bridgestones are great. On ice, however, they are rather poor. Main advantages are low noise, decent comfort and great wet performance in the cold. Main disadvantages are poor handling feel/feedback and higher fuel consumption compared to summer tires. Although grip is great at all vehicle speeds, these tires are prone to understeer and you don't really feel where the limit is. Tires I could compare them to are Bridgestone Blizzak LM005, Firestone Winterhawk 4, Bridgestone T005, Linglong Sport Master, Nexen N Blue HD plus, Michelin Pilot Sport 4 and the Hankook Ventus Evo I have gotten for this season.

I would recommend them to anyone that only drives in the city, drives a low-powered economy car, a secondary car, doesn't drive daily or lives in a place with mild winters.

Previously, for nearly a quarter of a century, I used to switch between winter and summer tires; this is my first set of all-season tires. After a very long period of consideration, I decided to choose this tire. It was “competing” for me with the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3, the Vredestein Quatrac, and the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3.

The tires were installed on my car in early October 2024, and since then exactly one and a half years have passed, during which I have driven 15,000 km. Fortunately, the tire is very quiet, which contradicts test results that rate it as particularly noisy.

The tire performs very well as long as the temperature is above freezing. The only situation where I am not satisfied is on dry roads in high-speed, long corners, where the car does not hold its line well and requires several small steering corrections.

Below freezing, the tire’s grip starts to deteriorate very quickly; the car often slides disappointingly, and the ESP frequently activates. One morning I had the chance to test it in 20 cm of fresh snow: in such conditions, starting, cornering, and stopping are problematic, but otherwise the tire performs well. LOL. So in true winter conditions, it is very weak and falls far short of a proper winter tire.

Tire wear so far is almost immeasurable; it is that low.

Fuel consumption has increased noticeably, by roughly 0.2–0.3 liters per 100 km, compared to the previous winter and summer tires.

I wouldn’t say it’s a bad tire, but I’m not completely satisfied with it. If I had to buy new all-season tires now, I would wait for the new all-season tire that Goodyear has promised for this year, which will be the successor to the Vector 4Seasons Gen-3, and I would probably choose that one.
