Product description & features

The Bridgestone Turanza T001 is a summer tyre designed primarily with the needs of wet braking and quieter driving on the motorway in mind. Its asymmetric tread features high angle braking blocks. Bridgestone's Resonator Grooves are used on the Turanza T001 to diminish the sound made as the tyre rotates on the tread. Flat Contact Patch construction improves the tread design by helping to achieve an even distribution of pressure, and therefore even tread wear.

The T001 uses the NanoPro-Tech rubber compound, which is intended to enhance wet braking by reducing an internal build-up of heat. The T001 was intended to replace the original Turanza ER300, and was followed in the Bridgestone line-up by the Turanza T005. The tyre is also available in XL construction and RFT run-flat versions. At Tyres.co.uk, we offer the run-flat version of the Bridgestone Turanza T001.

Highlights

  • Asymmetric tread, high-angle braking blocks
  • Resonator grooves for lower road noise
  • Run-flat and XL versions available

Tyre review for Bridgestone Turanza T001 185/50R16 81H
Great tyres, these were originally fitted to my VW Up. Did 45,000 miles on the front and 75,000 miles on the back. Changed them only because they started to crack, not because the tread wore down. Provide great grip and are good value for money.

Tyre review for Bridgestone Turanza T001 185/50R16 81H
I have gone through 9,000 miles with these tyres over a year, and they still have 6mm of tread left on them. I expect I will get about 60,000 to 70,000 miles, which is similar to my last set. They are good for all seasons, and can be fitted and forgotten about, other than to check the pressure every so often. They came as the standard tyres on my vehicle, and due to the fact they wore down evenly, provided a great level of fuel consumption, and gave great handling, I decided to get the same ones again.
