Summary of test results
Across multiple independent tyre tests the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 consistently outperforms the Dunlop All Season 2. Our aggregated score reflects this gap: Bridgestone 90% vs Dunlop 66%. In head-to-head placements Bridgestone finished near the top (1st in several AUTO BILD rounds and 3rd in Autoexpress), while the Dunlop landed in the lower half of large comparative tests (positions such as 5/6 and 11/37 / 15/30 depending on the test).
Strengths — Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6
- Dry performance: Top marks for dry handling and dry braking — praised repeatedly by AUTOBILD.
- Wet safety: Excellent wet braking, aquaplaning resistance (longitudinal) and wet circle cornering — key reasons it won multiple tests.
- Balanced mileage: Reports mention convincing wear characteristics alongside its sporty dynamics.
- Overall test dominance: frequent 1st-place finishes and a high overall rating make it the benchmark among current all-season touring tyres.
Weaknesses — Bridgestone
The main compromise is winter/snow performance: testers flag it as “somewhat weaker on snow.” If you need best-in-class snow traction, this tyre is not the top choice despite its excellent wet/dry balance.
Strengths — Dunlop All Season 2
- Winter ability and mileage: Multiple AUTOBILD notes highlight very strong snow traction and the best kilometre performance in tests — a clear advantage for drivers in mixed climates who prioritise longevity and value.
- Cost-effectiveness: Repeatedly rated highly for price/value and fuel efficiency. Autoexpress also recorded good rolling resistance.
- Good all-round economy: if budget and wear are priorities, Dunlop is attractive.
Weaknesses — Dunlop
Despite its economy and snow merits, Dunlop shows notable weaknesses on wet and dry handling in several tests: extended wet braking distances, weaker aquaplaning performance and only moderate dry dynamics. These shortcomings pushed it down the rankings in comparative tests that weight braking and handling heavily.
Mutual test positions & overall verdict
When comparing mutual test placements, Bridgestone consistently ranks significantly higher than Dunlop. Bridgestone’s strengths in wet and dry braking, handling precision and aquaplaning resistance translated into multiple overall wins and a clear lead in aggregated scores. Dunlop’s value proposition — excellent snow traction, outstanding mileage and low running cost — makes it a strong contender for cost-conscious drivers or those who prioritize winter grip and long life over sportier handling.
Which tyre should you choose?
Choose the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 if you want the safest, best-performing all-season tyre in mixed wet/dry conditions and prefer top handling and braking performance. Choose the Dunlop All Season 2 if your priority is value, fuel economy and maximum mileage with very good snow traction at the expense of some wet/dry performance.
