    I have the Bridgestone Turanza P205/5516 89H M+S on a brand new 2009 Corolla that I bought 13 months ago. I have 24K on the car, and the tires are shot. That's simply unacceptable to have to buy new tires on a new car before 40K.

    I think this is simply a very poor quality product, and I'm shocked that Toyota allowed this garbage on their car.

    Time to replace them much to my chagrin, and I feel stupid for not having researched the tires on a new car before I purchased it.

    Bridgestone Turanza tyres hold road really well. I have a peugeot 307 when my drivers front tyre was due for renewal i swopped it with a cheap tyre the day after i went round a sharp corner and the car slid out 2 lanes that was enough for me i went out that afternoon and swopped that same tyre for another turnanza (the bloke thought i was mad at tyre shop) but the way it holds road it was worth every penny!!!

    I have a 2008 Scion XB. 19k miles on the Turanza tires and the wear bars are showing. Called Bridgestone to complain and they blamed Toyota. Said they use a different spec compound on OEM tires for Toyota to meet CAFE, reduce the rolling resistance and give the driver a better ride. Not happy I have to replace my tires so soon.

    Had to change bridgestone turanza tyres after 17,000 miles on a new car, very conservative driving style, is this a BMW scam, you cant have normal tyres as there is no room anymore for a spare, so they can charge you for a set of run flats every year !!!!! cost ' 120 each at BMW garage !! crazy

    Great tire, I have it on 2004 Mercury Grand Marquis LS Ultimate Edition, I purchased it 7 months ago, the tire walked around 15 thousand kms. till this day.
    the tire runs great, max speed with the tire was 176 k/m. the Bridgestone Turanzatire is hard on the road, when its raining the traction is a little bit bad.

    mostly its a good tire.

    but I will not buy it again, I will return to my favorite tire Michelin

    235/60/16 ER 30 Bridgestone Turanza tyres on my Hyundai Tucson. After only 30K miles feathering started on the rear tires. Front tires rapid wear.After only 40Kmiles I have to change them now. Front tires completely worn. The rear tires still enough meat but heavy feathering at the inside and noise, despite I am a calm driver.Worst tires I ever had.Expensive tires for the given quality.

    The Bridgestone Turanza tyres on my Mazda CX-7 had no tread on them after 15000 km. This with normal driving. This is the worst tyre I have ever see in my 40 years of driving.

    I am no slouch when it comes to driving, I have a seat altea Sport 2.000cc PSg or as some call it DSG Gearbox A wolf in sheeps clothing quite a fast very responsive 5Door, Given many a boy racer a run for his money with the very good road holding ability very little noise on cornering a tyre that gives me confidence in all weather and road conditions, my last 6 cars have had these tyres if nott fitted as new I requested them, Never let me down yet .205/55 R16 91v.
    There are better tyres I have ...

    The 205/55 16" is a tyre for people who wish to become Kamikaze drivers. If you want a thrill or are a rally driver, this is the tyre for you. Ask someone who has them fitted.
    I own a New MAZDA 6 they are factory fitted, MAZDA UK say there is no problem?
    I say Google and see what other people say!

    No tyre should be replaced every year. Rubbish.

    The time to replace the rubber on my Ford Focus 2ltr 16v came 2 years ago, and instantly improved the performance and comfort of the car, although not the cheapest tyre, its quality margin is greater.
    Than the higher price over standard tyre, required for its purchase.

    For a medium-size Japanese car. I just changed old tires to be new Bridgestone Turanza AR10. Taxi drivers recommend them for me, so I choose them for my car. Safety is my first choice. The second concern is about the value. That's all.

    I am using the turanza ER60 185/60/14. A quiet tyre as compare to my previous tire. The immediate effect is being felt when the tire is installed. With this new tyre, I can confidently do cornering without any worries.

    This review is for the Turanza GR80 which served me well for the past 3 years. Tire wear is very good and I would say above average. Grip is also good both in wet and dry surface. The only thing that will prevent me from getting a new set when mine finally wears out is the cost. But otherwise the Turanza GR80 does it job.

    Overall, I had been pleased with the perforance of the Bridgestone Turanzas. However, they have not worn well and need to be replaced at 18,000 miles. I think I'll look for another brand.

    Normally we do not ask about the quality of tires when buying a new car. I would suggest that new buyers of cars to do that, otherwise they will end up spending $1200 every 15000 miles to change the tires.

    Bought a new Holden Astra at end of Jan 2006 which was fitted with Bridgestone Turanza ER300 205/55R16 91H tyres. After 14 months two of the tyres developed sidewall bulges about the size of a 50cent piece. Quotes for replacement range from "recommended retail" in excess of $300 each, $280 each from a well-known tyre chain in Brisbane, to $209 from another Brisbane tyre chain. What goes on here?
    I shall avoid Bridgestone products in future.

    I have a Celica GT '88 and the Turanza's ER300ch 195/55 r15 have an excellent handling on both dry and wet conditions in Greece were the roads are as slippery as ice (my older tires were Michelin's E3A which overheated the whole time! And Toyo's Proxys that it's tire wear was not 'solid' enough). They might be a bit expensive but i think they 're worth a try. About the noise, it's nothing compare to the Proxys.
