Wet grip starts at “Important”. Treadwear starts at “Neutral” here: road tests measured it for at most one of the two tires, so it rests on owner reviews. Move the sliders and the scores update instantly.
Only one of the two tires has a score here, so this weight changes nothing in the head-to-head.

From Reddit, forums and review threads. Not part of our score
Community opinions on the Bridgestone Turanza T005 are divided, with many drivers praising its wet-weather grip and highway usability. Conversely, numerous owners report significant concerns regarding loud road noise, rough ride comfort, rapid wear, and premature sidewall cracking or dry rot.
“Lateral dry rot - Bridgestone Turanza T005 DOT 21, 3rd summer on service - all 4 tires have these cracks on their laterals, should I be worried?”
“I have the wagon with 20" wheels and the car came in with cheap Bridgestone Turanza T005 which will be replaced this week with Michelins. Continental EcoContact 6Q seems like it's a decent tire tbh - twice as expensive as my bridgestones. Had the same first impression about the brakes too but then you gotta remember that pads and rotors need to be worked it - it usually happens within first 200 miles.”
“I have a ford Fiesta with the Turanza T005s. I bought them in October last year for around 80 a corner and will probably replace them with the same when needed. I drive motorways mostly and have used them in some terrible rain and they are fantastic in the wet. Obviously not winter tyres but till fantastic. They give me much more confidence to drive spritely which is great.”

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.
