Bridgestone Turanza Tire EL42: 2007 BMW 328Xi (Run Flats)

Fri, 11 Sep 2009 10:32:31 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author dde1290 - I have 33,000 miles on the vehicle and the tires need to be replaced. Road noise is constant on these tires and unfortunately I will most likely replace them with the same tire due to the fact that there is no spare tire with my BMW and I cannot afford...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author mnfrme - These aree the worst tires I have ever seen. Bridgestone won't back them and the Bridgestone representative even suggested that I not use these tires. Why put out such a substandard product. Will never use these or any other Bridgestone...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author native020 - This review is about the Bridgestone Insignia SE Tires. Previously, I wrote that these tires gave so much noise that it sounded like an airplane instead of a 2004 Grand Prix. Since the first review, the tire installation store diagnosed the problem as a...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author my3kgt - I guess I’m going to be in the minority here, but here goes. I have a 2003 Nissan Maxima that came with a set of Bridgestone Turanza EL42 tires, size 215/55-17, V-rated. The car is just about to turn 70,000 miles and the tires are still in good...

Bridgestone Turanza Tire EL42: Poor Treadwear

Tue, 14 Aug 2007 08:07:34 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author kindeyes - These came as original equipment on a 2005 Solara (215/55 R17). Though I forgot to rotate them regularly, one pair of tires is done at 27K miles, the other pair has another 3K left on them. Not surprising considering the treadwear rating is 260. Why...

Bridgestone Turanza Tire EL42: They make me wonder what Infiniti was thinking

Thu, 30 Nov 2006 05:53:18 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author rockhead261 - I have been quite sensitive to tires and how they can determine the personality of an automobile ever since my fathers 1982 Honda Accord hatchback went from a mushy interloper to a fine freeway warrior simply by replacing the rubber. The Turanza's which...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author dncswknivs - 57,000 miles gives you a lot of time to evaluate a set of tires. My calculator tells me that this is equivalent to approximately 1,700 hours of driving time. My butt concurs. The set of Bridgestone Touranza EL42s currently on my vehicle came as stock...

Bridgestone Turanza Tire EL42: Medium grade, low life, expensive tire

Wed, 2 Feb 2005 21:31:58 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author staticman - Not impressed. Just removed after 30,000 miles of use. They were a little noisy, especially with bumps and cracks, rode hard, and wore quickly, developing cupping and flat spots. Most of all, after balancing to perfection, still hopped down the road...
