When comparing the Linglong Grip Master 4S and the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6, test results across multiple AUTOBILD rounds show a clear performance gap. The Turanza All Season 6 consistently finishes at the top of the field, while the Grip Master 4S sits in the mid-to-lower ranks. Neither model has been noted as replaced by a newer tyre in our data.
Test positions and overall ranking
In comparative test line-ups the difference is stark: the Bridgestone took 1st place in multiple AUTOBILD tests (tests with 35 and 37 tyres), consistently praised for dry and wet performance and aquaplaning resistance. The Linglong finished around 14th–20th place in those same test suites, reflecting a budget orientated product with compromises in critical wet and winter metrics.
Summarised strengths
- Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6: Outstanding across the board in independent tests — top marks for dry handling, dry braking, wet braking, and wet circle cornering. AUTOBILD notes it as an “allroundtalent” with short braking distances and good aquaplaning reserves. It also offers convincing mileage. The main downside reported is a higher price.
- Linglong Grip Master 4S: Strong points are comfort, price/value and high wear resistance. Tests repeatedly highlight a comfortable ride and attractive cost — making it a credible choice for drivers prioritising budget and long life over ultimate wet-weather safety.
Summarised weaknesses
- Bridgestone: While excellent on wet and dry tarmac, testers note a relative weakness on snowy surfaces — it is more of a “summer specialist” among all‑season tyres. Price is also above average.
- Linglong: Marked deficits on wet and snowy roads, modest aquaplaning reserves and only moderate safety margins in demanding conditions. These shortcomings contribute to its lower overall rating (~59%).
Head-to-head verdict
Across the combined AUTOBILD tests, the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 is clearly the superior performer: it tops test tables and scores highly in the most safety-critical categories (braking, handling, aquaplaning). The Linglong Grip Master 4S is positioned as a budget-friendly alternative that delivers comfort and value, but it sacrifices wet and winter performance and therefore cannot match the Bridgestone in overall safety and dynamic capability.
Which to choose depends on priorities: for the safest, best‑all‑round driving performance and test-proven wet/dry competence, the Bridgestone is the recommended pick. For drivers focused on cost, ride comfort and long wear who accept trade-offs in wet and snow, the Linglong remains an economical choice.
