How they performed across tests


Across multiple test programs the Pirelli SF3 often ranks 1st or near the top. Key strengths repeatedly reported are aquaplaning resistance (longitudinal & cross), wet handling/braking, snow traction/handling and dry braking. Autobild, Autoexpress and Die Reifentester consistently place the Pirelli at or near the top. Test comments highlight it as an extremely well-balanced tyre with strong safety reserves in wet and winter conditions, albeit at a higher price and with relatively higher wear.


The Bridgestone Turanza AS6 scores very well too: frequent top-3 finishes (Autobild, Autoexpress, AUTOBILD large test) and praise for dry and wet handling, comfortable ride, low noise and low rolling resistance. Bridgestone is noted for good value and predictable behaviour, with occasional minor deficits in snow grip versus the very best winter-capable all-seasons and slightly extended wet braking in some tests.


Strengths and weaknesses — quick summary



  • Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 — Strengths: Best-in-class aquaplaning resistance, top wet and dry braking, excellent snow traction/handling, low noise and very consistent lap times. Weaknesses: Higher wear in some tests (affecting long-term value) and a premium price point.

  • Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 — Strengths: Excellent comfort and low noise, strong dry and wet handling, low rolling resistance and good value. Weaknesses: Slightly weaker on deep snow compared with the SF3 and mixed results on the very longest wet braking distances in a few tests.


Which tyre is better overall?


If your priority is maximum performance across wet, aquaplaning and winter scenarios, the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 takes the edge — it scores highest in the majority of comparative tests and earns top marks for safety-critical wet and snow disciplines. If you prefer a quieter, more comfortable tyre with very good all-around behaviour, lower rolling resistance and stronger value, the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 is a compelling alternative.


Verdict: the Pirelli is the more performance-oriented all-rounder and the overall test winner in most head-to-heads; the Bridgestone is an excellent, more comfort/value-focused choice. Choose the SF3 for maximum wet/winter confidence, the Turanza AS6 for comfort, economy and predictable everyday behaviour.
