Bridgestone Turanza T005EV has a Relative Score of 51 out of 100 among summer tires. 4 owner reviews rate it 39 out of 100.
Two scoring systems, side by side
Owner scores come from reviews found online; road-test scores come from instrumented tests. Where they disagree, it is usually a discipline owners rarely push to the limit.
How scores work
- Relative score
- 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
- Road tests
- 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
- Owner reviews
- 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.
By owner reviews
39/100From 4 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.
By road tests
63/100Scaled across every tested tire: the average gets 70, the best 100.
What owners like and dislike
Themes extracted from 4 owner reviews found online.
Reviews of the Bridgestone Turanza T005 EV are mixed to negative, driven mainly by short tread life and uninspiring wet performance. Users find the tire quiet and reasonably comfortable, but several report weak cornering confidence and grip that fades well before expected, especially on EVs like the Tesla Model 3 and MG4.
Pros
- Quiet running noted by users
- Fairly comfortable ride
- Grip is good when new and through summer conditions
- Wet grip described as fine and better than Michelin e.Primacy by one owner
- Works as a like-for-like replacement on a Tesla Model 3, described as 'fine'
Cons
- Short tread life: one tire was near the legal limit at about 10,500 miles, and another was called 'horrendous' for longevity
- Grip drops sharply as the tire wears, with one owner reporting it lost all grip at end of life
- Weak wet performance for some users, including a sensation of near-aquaplaning on a motorway below 100 km/h
- Poor cornering confidence reported by one reviewer
Worth knowing
- Reviews mentioning the Tesla Model 3 (including the Highland as OEM fitment) and MG4 Xpower point to rapid wear, consistent with the heavy, high-torque nature of EVs.
- A Malaysian owner suggested rough local road surfaces may have contributed to the short life, so wear results may vary by road conditions.
- No tire sizes were provided in the reviews, so no size-specific conclusions can be drawn.
