Expert summary
Firestone, the affordable brand belonging to the Bridgestone group, has a fresh addition to their lineup - the Roadhawk 2. And it seems like it’s set off for success - it offers the Bridgestone’s ENLITEN technology, which makes the rolling resistance and mileage exceptional for a budget tyre and it combines it with safe behavior on wet and dry.

Expert summary
Built for comfort and longevity. The Primacy 4+ delivers outstanding mileage, low noise, and a smooth ride — all backed by short braking distances. Aquaplaning reserves and wet grip are modest, but if you value a quiet, comfortable ride with low running costs, this is the Michelin to get.

Price from£103
Expert summary
The Turanza 6 is quite a new addition to Bridgestone’s lineup, being introduced in 2023. Featuring the new ENLITEN technology, it should be lighter and have positive effect on fuel efficiency. In the tests, the efficiency is confirmed alongside with higher mileage. That being said, it somehow lacks the performance of other premium tyres, so we would recommend it only when the price is lower.

Expert summary
The previous model was already a good, economy-focused model and the Primacy 5 is expected to take it even further with 18% better mileage. But Michelin said also the wet performance is improved, which is something we are looking forward to see in the tests.

Price from£113
Expert summary
The BFGoodrich Advantage is here to offer you a bargain—but it doesn't impress much beyond that. It has decent dry handling and provides a quiet ride with low rolling resistance, but performance on wet surfaces leaves much to be desired. If you're looking for an affordable option and are willing to compromise on wet grip and overall performance, it might still be worth considering. Expect satisfactory comfort but manage your expectations elsewhere.

Did you know ...?

195/55 R20 doesn't belong to the most popular dimensions for summer tyres - there are 4 tyre models available, which can be compared to 155/60 R15, 170/60 R17, 160/60 R14. Let's break down the sizing - 55 is height of the tyre, which is calculated as 55% of the tyre width (195mm), which means the sidewall height has 107.25 mm. The wheel diameter is R20, which means it fits to a 20 inch/508mm diameter wheel. The total circumference of the tyre is 2269.8 mm, which is very similar to 225/70 R16(2266.34 mm), 225/65 R17(2275.46 mm), 215/80 R15(2277.65 mm), 265/40 R20(2261.95 mm), 235/45 R20(2260.38 mm), 275/35 R21(2280.48 mm), 265/35 R21(2258.49 mm). There are multiple speed indexes available for summer tyres in 195/55 R20: H(210km/h). The same goes for weight indexes: 95.
