Bridgestone Turanza T005 Reviews - Page 6

Given 94% while driving a Mercedes Benz C220 CDI Sports (225/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 25,000 average miles
Dry performance is extremely good and on the wet those tire are the queen of the road. Wear rate is above average and Turanza T005 are the quietest summer tires I have ever had. Very comfortable and low level of noise in the cabin. 100% would recommend not only for the outrageous performance but also for the reliability and convenience during high speed cornering.

Got new Turanza's fitted on my Citroen C3 Picasso in April and managed to accumulate ~12 000km in that period. Overall, I am very happy with the purchase - a very reliant and responsive tire. I've driven them in a variety of weather - dry, hot and dry, slight rain, heavy rain and they never let me down nor disappoint. I am not a big tire expert, but I haven't seen any wear so far. Mind that this is family car and I normally drive with two kids in the back, so no aggressive of fast driving. One thing to note is that they are indeed noisier compared to my previous tires, but they compensate with reliability. Overall, if I had to buy new summer tires today, I'll definitely go back to Bridgestone.

I switched to these tires after purchasing an audi a4 black edition. The car originally came with cheap jinju tires which where awful! Spinning in the wet. Under steering in the wet and abs kicking in on the motorway. These tires are night and day difference. I have never had any issues with under steering. They brake very well in the wet and dry. I have full confidence in these tires after experiencing the quality at the other end of the spectrum. They are slightly noisy but that is a small gripe for the sure footed stability they provide. I will be purchasing again.

Given 20% while driving a Citroën C3 Aircross SUV (215/50 R17) on mostly country roads for 10 easy going miles
At 10k Miles, these are the worst tires I have ever had. Factory fitted at new to a Citroen Aircross, they have the worst handling I have ever experienced. The wheels slip and slide at junctions, have absolutely no traction on muddy roads, are horrendously noisy and I have no faith in them whatsoever. I believe Citroen have gone back to fitting Michelins again - Amen to that. More importantly, after a year old, these tires have started cracking all over the outer inch and a half of the tire. They are spider like cracks and these also extend into the grooves. It is as if they have started to age prematurely and this is happening on both the fronts and is just starting to happen on the rears too. I can't put up with them anymore, so am having them removed tomorrow and getting Michelin CrossClimate + tires fitted all round.

Given 77% while driving a Toyota Auris (205/50 R16) on mostly country roads for 2,000 spirited miles
These replaced Toyo Proxes on my Auris 1.6. They got installed just before spring and would spin up when it was cold and raining. Once it warmed up they were great even when it was wet. To be honest handling I would not be able to judge based on the Auris, the car was just not built for that. Braking and acceleration were way better compared to the previous tires. Fuel economy was improved as well. Covered about 3000 miles before selling the car, tread was still around 7.9- 8 mm on all corners.

Given 74% while driving a Skoda (205/55 R16) on a combination of roads for 10,000 easy going miles
comming from Rains Sport 3 these tires seems to be less effective on wet however a bit more comfortable on long journey. I was expecting to last better. It seems an improvement on durability but is not a jump. The negatives are on the wet anf sudden moves. on straight line they do not make a big difference but steering in wet is less effective comparing with Rain Sport 3 and sportier starts are a no go with Touranza. The wheels are spining every time regardles wet, dry, sandy or clean surface. It seems that the highway comfort (road performance and stability on straight line) and the fuel consumption are the best points of the tire.

Given 50% while driving a Volkswagen Polo GTI (215/40 R18) on for 15,000 miles
Not the most comfortable tire, yes its low profile but its rigid and hard side wall makes ride and comfort terrible... add this with the 320 tread wear rating it is a fast wearing tire that i only managed to get 25000km off of... Prices for these tires are ridiculous as well doesnt justify the quality of tire... won't recommend this tire to anyone...

Given 69% while driving a Hyundai i30 CRDi (205/55 R16) on mostly motorways for 28,000 spirited miles
Positive: Amazingly good grip on dry and wet roads. It is extremely safe to drive a car with these tires. The car’s fuel consumption is really very low with Turazna T005. Negative: I think it wears out relatively quickly. I was able to drive roughly 45,000 km (28,000 miles) with these. The grip is very temperature dependent. Excellent in warm and hot. Not bad in cool weather either. Around 8 degrees Celsius, it no longer feels safe. I use winter tires in winter, but it can be relatively cold in both fall and spring. I’ve never had a summer tire that has lost so much from gripping because of the temperature. The tire is very loud, which ruins comfort. In terms of safety, I am not satisfied with aquaplaning resistance alone. That could be better. I would only buy it again if the sound insulation of my car would be much better. I'm switching to Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2 now.

Given 91% while driving a Volkswagen Golf 1.9 Tdi (205/55 R16 V) on mostly town for 45,000 average miles
One of the best tires i had. Replacing 2 Goodyear efficent grip performance ( good tires but awkward road feedback). They suit the car very well. They grip extremely well both dry and wet, even when pushed hard. They seem to perform much better on warm weather than on cold conditions. Great confort and great mpg. Excelent road feedback. Maybe i'll change for 4 seasons tires. Maybe i'll try the new brigestone a005 Evo which seem to BE more summer tires with winter performance and more peace of mind on winter conditions.
