Comparison: Bridgestone Turanza T005 vs. Continental PremiumContact 7 vs. Bridgestone Turanza 6 vs. Vredestein ULTRAC vs. Pirelli Cinturato P7 C2

Here we have a side-by-side comparison of two renowned brands, Bridgestone Turanza T005 and Continental PremiumContact 7. These tyres have been tested and reviewed for a variety of features, setting them apart in the market.


Starting with the Bridgestone Turanza T005, this tyre boasts a rating of 89%, indicative of its high quality and performance. Originating from factories spread across Hungary, Poland, France, and Italy, this summer tyre brings a fascinating mix of durability and smooth handling. With note-worthy features like excellent resistance to aquaplaning, optimal comfort, and immense wet handling ability, it proves to be an ideal touring tyre. However, according to Sport Auto's testing, it ranks 3rd out of 5, showcasing room for improvement. Despite this, the Bridgestone Turanza has been appreciated for its low rolling resistance and excellent aquaplaning protection on wet roads. However, some drawbacks noted include susceptibility at the rear axle limit and sluggish handling on dry surface.


Contrastingly, the Continental PremiumContact 7 is no less of a competitor. With an impeccable rating of 100%, the tyre is a blend of the most-desired features of its successful predecessors—the Continental PremiumContact 6 and the Continental ContiPremiumContact 5. Manufactured in France, Slovakia, Germany, and the Czech Republic, this summer tyre presents a balanced performance in both wet and dry conditions, claiming the top spot in Sport Auto's test. With excellent feedback for attributes like dry braking, wet braking, wet handling, and dry steering response, this model represents Continental's high-quality engineering. However, the tyre reports an average performance in terms of rolling resistance and has increased external noise.


In conclusion, while both the Bridgestone Turanza T005 and the Continental PremiumContact 7 showcase excellent features, the latter shows a slightly better performance in the comparative tests. Despite their respective strengths and weaknesses, both tyres demonstrate what makes Bridgestone and Continental notable players in this niche. Purchasers are always advised to consider their specific needs and requirements when selecting a tyre.
