Autoexpress Winter tyre test 2025 225/45 R17
Ranked #3 of 8
3rd of 8 competitors, final rating '-'. The Bridgestone put in an impressive, consistent showing across almost every test, earning a deserved podium — its weakest area was snow (seventh in braking, fourth in traction and fourth on the handling circuit), while it was strong in the wet with several third places including aquaplaning and wet braking, and very capable in the dry (fourth in braking, second on the handling course) thanks to excellent feel and composure. It was the noisiest over control surfaces but recorded the lowest rolling resistance — the best in that discipline — and it did not finish last in any measured property.
