Questions and Answers for the Bridgestone Turanza ER30
Sorry, we don't currently have any questions and answers for the Bridgestone Turanza ER30. Why not submit a question to our tire experts using the form below!
The Bridgestone Turanza ER30 receives mostly middling owner scores, with road noise the clearest recurring complaint, raised by almost half of the 35 owners. Around a quarter also describe a firm or uncomfortable ride, and a similar share criticise wet grip. Dry grip is more often praised than criticised, although it is not universally well liked. Longer-use accounts favor tread life overall, including several substantial mileages, but there are also reports of early replacement. A few owners describe poor wet cornering, while individual accounts of grip declining with age or wear do not establish a consistent ageing pattern.

“Has these rubbish tires fitted when I bought the car from new. Utterly rubbish after the car was just 1 month old. The rubber was hard which is terrible on bumpy ruads. Loud tire roar at any road even on motorways. Girp...”
“Excellent wear characteristics: 60K on Front 100k on Rear for 2 successive Sets of Tires. Shame they are no longer available. Will try ER300's .Hopefully these will be as good.”
This is OE tire come with the Honda Stepwgn EP8. Not very sure about the noise level because I don't know what queit tire be like anyways, i hear the noise from tire when it runs. The wear is as hard as my life like never tear. It only suit for city speed in tropical winter. Definitely not recommend for Roundabout, Highway and Wet no matter what climate you in. Higher risk Higher technique.

Let's be crystal clear: This tire is outright dangerous in the wet and when its cold. I know it's an OE tire but never thought Bridgestone would put their brand on a product that dysfunctions completely when operating just past the limit of it's official rating (7C for summer tire is it? Got the scare of my life at around 2 or 3C ... and 15mph!!! Almost felt like black ice!). This tire is fit for only one purpose, to be used on taxis for max wear resistance, at city speeds and in warm climate. Anything else, drive at your own risk. First time of my life I've described a tire as dangerous, and never imagined it'd be a Bridgestone ... on a Prius! Would advise anyone to steer clear from these things, while they can still steer!

These came as OE tire when I bought the new car FF MK2.5. Up to 20 000 km they had been very well in both, dry and wet conditions.
Grip on the dry surface was quite good. Even with 60.000km behind itself, they had a lot of grip. They are average in the wet. Noise, yes they are noisy but I have been quite disappointed with my new set, Michelin Pilot Sport 3. They are noisy almost same as ER30 but nobody has mentioned that on this forum yet. Also, the my subjective assesment for the first 200km will be that PS3 is worse in dry than ER30. Yesterday, I felt a slightly understeer at a curved road where I usually drive.
The ER30 is not comfort tire since the car feels every bump on the road.
NOISE - DEAFENING NOISE!!!
Came on new SEAT Ibiza and within a week took it back. Assessed by dealer's technician on road test and he concurred. SEAT showed no interest whatsoever. I will never buy these tires again, nor will I ever buy a SEAT again. You would not want to make a long journey on these tires - they were hell just driving around locally.
Other considerations like grip, and wear just paled into insignificance against resounding drone given out by these tires, had to be heard to be believed. Enough!
These came stock when I bought the car new. Nothing spectacular about these tires, unstable around turns and roundabouts at times, extremely noisy on the road no matter what sort of road it is, extensively disintegrating and feathered at not more than 18,000 miles.
Will not get these again. Going to try out a full set of Potenza RE002 for a change.
These tires don't wear out quickly which is good; this is mainly down to the fact they are very hard which can also resist punctures well. This hardness means an extra firm and uncomfortable ride and excessive road noise. Wet weather grip at low speeds is bad. Even a 3 point turn in the road at speeds less than 5mph can result in a little sliding. The side walls have a great rim protector but overall i wouldn't buy again- other Bridgestones I have had have been similar and wouldn't pick this brand willingly.

seems to be a hard compound lasts ages doesnt like cold wet conditions or white lines or slush or wet grass poor steering response not particularly quiet glad when i got rid of them
ER30 were fitted as OEM on Mazda 3. So far I have driven 50,000kms on them and they still have 6mm of tread. It seems they will last very long. On the other hand they are quite noisy on rough pavement and the wet grip is not perfect. At least the dry grip and feedback from front tires is superb.
These were the OEM tires on toyota yaris. I cant find any fault with them as a summer tire, but they are terrible on snow. They have taught me the need about the winter tires once as I was about to make an accident with them at a time I wasn't even aware of the existance of winter tires. They have excellent wear rate, they are still usable after after 5 years and 70000 miles (roughly half of which were probably with winter tires though, so lets say 35000)
