“I have the same, 205/55 R16 Turanza 6 Enliten, the new ones that are supposed to be EV-ready. The noise level does feel higher than Conti UC6/7, even though it's supposed to be better. Grip and handling are good tho.”

No owner ratings of noise for Turanza 6 or Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6. The owner half is the owners’ average (66): owners’ noise ratings barely follow the road tests, so the tests say nothing about how owners would rate it.

Themes extracted from owner reviews found online — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.
From Reddit, forums and review threads. Not part of our score
Community sentiment regarding the Bridgestone Turanza 6 is mixed to moderately positive, with owners often praising its competitive pricing, low rolling resistance, and dependable wet and dry grip. However, opinions diverge sharply on ride comfort and cabin noise, with some praising its quietness while others report harshness or road roar. Additionally, several drivers voice frustration over steering feedback, describing a soft or twitchy sensation, along with isolated reports of premature cracking.
“I have the Turanza 6, albeit 255/45/R18 (8.5 front & rear) Nothing to compare to other than the OEM 16" wheels with Continentals.”
“I have the same, 205/55 R16 Turanza 6 Enliten, the new ones that are supposed to be EV-ready. The noise level does feel higher than Conti UC6/7, even though it's supposed to be better. Grip and handling are good tho.”
“Bridgestone Turanza 6 cracked and perished within 18 months. 9k miles and 6mm of tread and all four of my Bridgestone Turanza 6 (summer) tyres have perished and cracked. Now an advisory on my MOT. This can't be normal can it? So any way, I'm looking for recommendations.”
Based on 35 community posts
The Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 is widely regarded as a top-tier UHP summer tyre with strong dry grip, good wet performance and rim protection. It is often recommended as a comparable or better-value alternative to the Michelin PS5. Reservations include a harsh ride and poor comfort for non-sporty daily use, a harshly negative Swedish test of cold-weather braking, concerns about wear and track use, and isolated vibration and EV-rating questions.
“you could fit them but they are not NF rated, only 5 is NF0 and NF1 rated but on the 21" sized for the sedan.”
“Potential issue with Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6? I recently installed a full set of Goodyear eagle F1 A6’s to my Golf GTI, since then I’ve noticed a really bad vibration through my seat at speeds around 70mph, at first I thought it was balancing so took the car back to the workshop and had them checked, the guy said they were fine, drove it again and same issue, I then took it to another place to double check, the guy said they were .5g out, no buckles, but still the issue is present, I’m starting to get a bit pissed off with the tyres at this point, my only option now is to submit a warranty claim, but first I have to buy a new set and I only get my money back if the original tyres are defective, does anyone have any experience with these tyres? Maybe it’s just that they’re super firm tyres but they’re so uncomfortable. Read more”
“Hi guys thanks for your input and sharing what you are using. I have gone for Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 with 20% off so worked out around £150 each fitted.”

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
Handling is the exception: road tests measure it inside the dry and wet scores, so its own row comes from owner ratings only and starts as less important.
