This review encapsulates the strengths and weaknesses of these two premium offerings from leading tyre manufacturers Bridgestone and Goodyear, as well as their performances in various tyre tests.


Bridgestone Turanza T005, made in Hungary, Poland, France, and Italy, has achieved an overall score of 89% in our rating system. Certificantly, it has no tyre that has replaced it yet and stands as a top model in the Bridgestone repertoire. The reviews have highlighted its great performance on dry and wet roads, it's especially noted for excellent grip, precise steering, and short braking distances. Although it showed slightly higher noise levels, it was also recognized for its remarkable efficiency with high scores for rolling resistance and relatively low fuel consumption.


It performed admirably in tests carried out by ADAC, Autobild and Autozeitung, achieving 3rd, 7th and 1st positions respectively. Importantly, some of its stand-out features were its wet and dry braking capabilities, excellent cornering performance and wet handling.


On the contrary, Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2, as the successor of the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance, scored slightly lower with 87% in our rating system. The reviews acknowledged that it is a well-balanced tyre with excellent handling both on dry and wet surfaces, comfortable ride and low noise. However, it exhibited average aquaplaning resistance and extended dry braking distances.


In the tests conducted by ADAC, Autobild and Autozeitung, the tyre was placed 4th, 13rd and 3rd respectively. The tyre was commended for its comfort and exceptional value for the price. One considerable advantage is that it offers high mileage and low rolling resistance which counters its slightly higher price point.


In conclusion, both the Bridgestone Turanza T005 and the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 are strong contenders with their unique strengths. While the Bridgestone option provides balanced performance with excellent grip and efficiency, the Goodyear tyre impresses with its comfort and value. All in all, your choice could depend on your specific driving needs and budgetary considerations.
