Reading the reviews here , person can get really badly confused.I drove these tyres for 30k miles so I have prity good observation.
Grip on dry - solid.Nothing special but enough for everyday cruiser.
Grip on wet - perfect.For first time in my life I am driving tyre that I never found the limit in the rain.Doing corners with 160mph with no slip at all.
Best in fuel economy.
The only drawback is that the ride is definately on the rough side.If properly warmed up it gets better.But hey no tyre is perfect.

Car arrived with the combination of 225/45 R18 in front and 255/40 R18 in back, non-RFT version. Ride comfort was pretty good, along with very good fuel efficiency, showing very little wear after 8000-9000km. When driving normal it has good grip dry, in wet its pretty unpredictable sometimes the rear slipped even at low speed, in straight line it seems to have no problem even under full throttle nor does it seem to be prone to aquaplaning under 90km/h in heavy rain. I was happy with the braking performance in both dry and wet. When the car is driven hard, the tires behave very poorly until they get warm, which also takes some time. If cold, the grip is unpredictable, randomly slipping even on dry with no feedback when its gonna break, after few moments it usually hooks back up. But you dont have a very good control over the car. Once you get the tires hot it has insane grip compared at least compared to when the tires are cold, however they are still bit unpredictable, and the tire profile seems to be bit too much for enthusiastic driving over corners. Can't really comment on wet grip when the tire is warm/hot since it has random problems with slipping even in regular driving...i never dared to try. Another major issue is high speed stability, over 190-200km/h it starts to "float around" and over 220-230 it becomes straight up dangerous to drive even in straight line. Which is weird since the tire is Y rated, and i only experienced this with winter tires before. Overall i can recommend the tire for daily driving, offers very good fuel efficiency along with ride comfort and noise. However its unsuitable if the car will be driven hard often, mainly due to lack of feedback and predictability in combination with BMW numb steering in G-series... Might be more suitable for FWD or front biased car like audi since it has no issues with grip in the front or seem to be prone to under steer. Switching to R19 225/40, 255/35 Continental SC7 for this summer season.

Driven 25,000 km on Cupra Formentor 180kw VZ. Overall ok tyres. The tyres felt good but some loss of grip in dry during quick acceleration. Overall felt safe but T0006 maybe better.

Felt sure and true at motorway speeds, handled back country roads well. Seemed to handle wet roads well.

Never pushed these tyres had as I was unsure of them, but they seemed to handle normal driving quite well.

Good tyre for that car,very good wear,after 6 years it is time for change,I will buy them again

Grippy but terrible wear on the back of my Mercedes C Class estate, shortest lifespan of any tyre I've ever bought!

Very good longevity as I hit 60k km and tires looks nearly new, good rolling resistance, very good dry handling, only decent wet performance but keep in mind very low aquaplaning capabilities. With cold weather in wet conditions they become nearly dangerous, so not the ideal tire for winter. I would not buy them again as comfort is poor, car feels too rigid, on non perfect tarmac they are simply noisy.

Absolutely dreadful worse tyre I've ever had, came with the car when new and my god absolutely terrible. Car gets blown around all over the place and god for bid any water on the road you'll end up spinning your wheels constantly. The handling is so strange it's very reactive but you always need little corrections it just doesn't do anything well. Alot less feedback than some cheaper ovation tyres. Replaced all four with toyo celsius AS2 and car now drives dead straight alot more feedback and never misses a beat. Bridgestone should be ashamed. Cars 3 years old and 13k miles and down to 1.6 m of tread, shocking wear shocking handling and feedback is not there.

Bought a 2nd hand Alfa Giulietta which is not a well insolated car, so any noite on the road comes info the cabin…The car still has the same set of tires with these T005. I'm about to change the front ones. Won't really buy these, as they transmit all the noise and road imperfections into the car. Very loud, very hard on bumps, not very good on road feedback and handling, very bouncing. Will try Michelin Primacy 4+…from the reviews i've seen so far those must be good to set the benchmark.

3 years into the tyres, i can say great grip in the wet and dry all from 5C to 40C degree weather.
When driving agressively, the sidewall flex is quite big, so you feel you're losing grip while youre actually just flexing the tyre sideways. Besides that great handling tyres, have nothing against them, will most likely buy again. on about 4-5mm of tread after about 25k miles, which is pretty good for my driving style.

About to change my T005 tires for something else (probably Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance ones), I'd rate them as an "alright" tire with not very sporty characteristics. Meaning they are noticeably less suitable for my Alfa 146 than the Toyo Proxes CF2's I had before them (have posted a "mid life" review & an "end of life" review for that tire also).
Regarding dry grip, the do grip well which is why I've given them "9", but they are very unhappy after just 4-5 minutes of spirited cornering. You can feel the tire getting "tired" after that.
Wet grip, again a "9" there, only once lost a bit of traction because I was indeed pushing things along - however they were easy to recover with quite a predictable amount of opposite lock. Was very satisfied by their progressiveness at the limit on that wet day.
Road feedback, not so good, it isn't a sporty tire, Alfas always have very communicative steering, and mine unfortunately has "lost" about 40% of its feedback from day 1 with these tires. Which is a shame. A "6" there from me.
Wear gets "7" by my observations, having lost ~ 3mm of tread in just 14.000 km (8,700 miles) in 4 years.
Comfort gets "7", they are a bit noisy. And they got a bit noisier still, after just 14.000 km (8,700 miles), something which I was not too happy about.
Would I buy again? Given little other choice, yes I probably would, hence the "7" in that category as well. Going for the Goodyears mentioned above, see how they will fare. Changing them purely for their age, they are slightly over 4 years old.
The one area which they do absolutely excel, rolling resistance, indeed I was getting great fuel consumption figures right from day 1. I do value that a lot given how expensive fuel has become here in Greece. The EfficientGrip Performance in my dimension (195/45/16) is rated "A" in rolling resistance, so expectations are slightly higher than the "B"-rated T005s.

I use these tires on my everyday car. It’s safe and worth the price. The only small negative is the noise, but this is not a problem for everyone.

covered 20k miles in 3 years and all 4 tyres are heavily cracked and need to be replaced to pass MOT.

They started to crack after 1 year i was advised at my service of the cracking,
at year 2 service i was again advised of cracking .
And at year 3 service advised all 4 tyres are heavily cracked and need to be replaced.

Tyre report shows 4mm tread leaft after 20k miles so in theory they could have gone another 20k if they didnt crack up so badly that they must be replaced.

i have beem driving since 1995 and have never had 4 tyres all crack up at roughly the same time and same degree in 3 years use.

It has put me off this brand , despite the overall positive reviews these tyres recieve.
