Took delivery of the new car in Nov 17, and as my dealer knew I work throughout Europe, including Italy, they fitted Nokian winter tyres to conform with Italian law. Great tyres !
I was back in the UK in April, and my dealer (at no charge) re-fitted the new Bridgestone 002 tires as supplied with the new car and put the winter tyres into storage for me.
Immediate reaction was that these tyres in motorway driving are noisy, (quieter in France) but apparently were otherwise OK.
However since April I have experienced driving in heavy rain and inclement weather in France, Belgium, Austria and Italy, and under these conditions the tyres (regardless of what Bridgestone say) can be vague to very jaw clenching when cornering or breaking under poor conditions, even at low speed.
Can't wait till November to get my winter tyres back on!

Came as factory fit tyres on our ex demo BMW 116d and not at all impressed with them. Wet grip often seem non existent, had three or four occasions where the rear has stepped out in the wet while taking a corner, turning at a junction and even crossing a level crossing; this is on the open road and within town.
Wear also appears high (9k done and the rears have less than 4mm left and BMW recommend replacing tyres at 3mm), as does the noise level on less than perfect road surfaces, although ride is not to bad considering they are run flats.
Not sure which tyres to try once these wear out but for sure it won't be another set of Bridgestones.

Bridgestone Turanza T002

Factory fitted with my new Toyota Prius 2016

Front tyres lasted 38080 miles
Rear tyre lasted 55498 miles, rear tyres still had life for another 2000 miles but I changed just to be on the safe side on reaching legal limit.

long lasting tyres, a little on the noisy side, grip in wet is so so, dry grip is good, tough tyres, recommended tyre if you don't want to change tyres often. Best use touring.
