Bridgestone Turanza T001 225/55 R17 97W Run Flat

The tires appear wider for their size and in comparison to the Nexen Nblue HD Plus which they replaced. They are quite firm although they've been used for many years. The tires are from the 2015 production year, and I tested them under harsh conditions of heat, urban, and highway driving. During rain, low temperatures even at 0, at various speeds, surfaces, bumps, and turns - they performed excellently everywhere. There was no swaying, skidding, bumps, or anything like that. The car always felt confident, even during rain and at 110 km/h. The tires have been used for 8 years, 5 in France, and 3 in Ukraine. They have always been balanced without particular issues despite their respectable age. Now they are "retired."

I liked almost everything about it. I spent a long time looking for summer tires (for a Skoda Octavia A5 estate). I read forums, listened to friends' advice, but I wouldn't have understood until I tried it myself. These tires are just fire. Perfect for our roads. Those who write that they aren't durable and the cords tear just don't know how to drive. If not for their stiffness and increased wear resistance, the lifespan would be much less than that of competitors. No matter how you look at it, the Japanese know how to make things (mine are made in Japan, and I think that's important). Aquaplaning resistance is at the highest level. They're very stable on wet roads. The seller emphasized that for long distances, the tires only get stronger thanks to the special construction of the sidewalls. Tested and true. Really powerful. And for a year, these brought me more joy than any soft summer tires from competitors (I won’t name names for ethical reasons).

the strong are not afraid of anything
