Doctor Steve's review of Bridgestone Turanza

“Had a sidewall blowout on a front tyre after 5000 km!...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Doctor Steve on 13/01/2010

Had a sidewall blowout on a front tyre after 5000 km! Classic conical failure pattern from excessive internal stress; definitely a manufacturing defect. Lost control of the car in icy conditions; back swung round and hit a lamp post but the car's as tough as old boots, so no worries. I had Potenzas on the back which I have now put on the front (Turanzas now on the back). I find that the Potenzas are poor at road holding on ice compared with the Turanzas but hopefully the thaw is on it's way.

This incident could have resulted in seriuos injury in a less robust car. I am concerned about integrity of Bridgestone tyres; would like to have known comparative statistical data on the failure rate before purchase.

    What vehicle are the tyres fitted to?
