I used to be a Bridgestone customer, but was turned off after Turanza and Donut failures 15 years ago or so. A friend had bought these for his VY Commodore ute (we don t carry big loads in our ute) and I was surprised about driving on them while my car was in the panel beaters. They gripped and were great in the winter rains on roads where I would usually aquaplane in my car. Went and got some fitted to my Falcon 2 years ago now and 48,700km (only 2 tyre rotations during this period) later they still look brand new and have hardly lost a scrap of tread. Maybe its because they are made in Japan or maybe Bridgestone have designed a superior product at an affordable price, Im not to sure, but I am convinced I could get another 30,000km out of these tyres. Very happy!

fitted to 2004 lancer to replace worn yoko a-drives. Advantages: Quiet, good deal (four tyres for price of three), comfortable ride, ok in the wet, minute improvement in fuel economy (maybe .1 or .2l per 100km improvement). Disadvantages: a bit soggy in corners (not that this bothers me as I drive like grandma...). So far have covered about 2000km and will report back if I notice any wear issues.

I had a 97 Fairlane and replaced all 4 tyres at the advise of BobJane Campbelltown NSW where I have been purchasing over 30 years. They have always given me the best advise and this is no different. I had these tyres on for well over 40k with still very serviceable tread. Quiet for the best part and a great rolling resistance hence the name Eco.(pia) Living in Tas now so will find my local tyre guy for the next 30yrs.

Put these tyres on a 2005 Toyota Avalon, due to the promise of extra fuel economy.For my driving, which is about 75% on the Motorway (total about 800km per week)I found the fuel economy to improve about 8%, which I found quite amazing.On My wife's car, which just runs around town most of the time, there was not a huge improvement - maybe 2-3%.Performance and handling seemed good, but I don't push things as much as when I was younger. I never felt like I was going to have a loss of grip.I put about 25000km on these before my car was written off - they didn't appear to have worn excessively.

Got these tyres at Kmart auto and tyres at $109 185/65 14, i was the first customer they ever sold these tyres to and they asked me to come back after 5000 km and tell them if am happy with the tyres performance and fuel economy, These tyres do really performance in the wet compared with no brand tyres i had on car they handle a lot better and are quieter on the road plus you get about 35km extra each tank of fuel. Spend the extra $20 and buy a these tyres instead a no name tyre brand.

The cost of a new set of Turanza's for the Aurion was a bit prohibitive so Bob Jane said they had a 4 for the price of 3 promo on the Ecopia's. Strange name but he convinced me that they were equivalent to the Turanzas for general driving and they were the new low resistance (??) tyre. For an all up cost incl alignment of less than $600 for 215x55x17H it was a done deal. Have only had them for a month but no complaints whatsoever. Quiet (but then new tyres usually are) and I got my first surprise at the first corner - lifting off at the usual point I found that I had to brake harder as the car kept rolling - and it kept happening at every corner - so they do have lower rolling resistance. On my first trip I noticed the instantaneous fuel readout was dropping from 7's to 6.7 ltr/100km for a 6cyl Aurion at 100 kph so it seems to be true. Ride is softer also. Only giving 4 stars at the moment because I am dubious about long term wear - the Turanzas did 51k

I first purchased a set of four from my local Bridgestone store to soon have the front passenger show a huge blister on the wall, within two weeks of purchase. I had to fight tooth and nail to have them take responsibility for the fault and provide a replacement though sure enough a few months later the same tyre location had a complete failure. I have since replaced the spare with another ecopia to keep the continuity. I'm not convinced at this point that the tyres are durable as I was expecting to get at least 50k or more out of them but I've already replaced two. As these are low rolling resistance tyres they are supposed to be best suited for my hybrid and I've seen no loss of performance compared to the michelin they replaced.

These tyres have a VERY soft side wall. Not suited for hills driving or front wheel drive vehicles.Bridgestone's push for eco friendly tyre. They are dearer than standard bridgestone tyre, yet claim better fuel economy? So the savings in fuel is offset by the cost of the tyre. Not good marketing!Poor mileage and really chop out the outer edges on the front tyres.

If you saved even 0.2L/100km then, though you'd barely even notice such a small change, you'd save nearly $200 over the life of the tyres.

Went to Bridgestone Select in Albany Creek and saw Scotty & Simon. I needed new tyres within 12 months of the last set, needless to say I was extremely annoyed. These guys advised on a set of Ecopia's and I couldn't be happier. The ride is sensational and smooth. I was a bit of a sceptic when first told about what the Ecopia's are meant to be like. Not anymore. The service from Bridgestone Select Albany Creek is sensational with no nonsense advice and being an ex mechanic I'm very wary about getting stitched up. I'm so happy to say I've found the mechanics to do work on my cars without the feeling of being got at. The new tyres came with a care package, so the guys send me an email when they need to be rotated, wheel alignment checked and so on, just to make sure you get a good life from the tyres. Really couldn't be happier with Ecopia's and service from Bridgestone Select Albany Creek.

This time I might try nitrogen inflation as well. Happy Customer.

The first time I used nitrogen inflated tyres 2 full tyre sets ago, I immediately felt just how good the effect was on roll,stability, solidity, and fuel reduction.I've immediately felt the very same effect with these tyres, only better.Do yourself a favour ~ try these tyres, & ALWAYS inflate with nitrogen = amazingly positive difference.I simply cannot believe the negative reviews on this page ~ these peeps MUST either own a competition brand dealership (how else could anyone buy 4 new tyres and replace them straight away?), or what they call "normal" driving is actually far more radical than is safely acceptable.

I bought these tyres from Jax Tyres in Moorabbin. They are great tyres especially when driving through puddles as the water dispurses out to the sides. Car feels solid on the road and so I feel safe when driving in slippery road conditions. Braking is good with these solid tread. As the name suggests.. ECOpia, they are supposed to provide better fuel consumption and tyres last longer. The tyres aren't overly expensive either. I paid $99 per tyre for a good brand tyre by Bridgestone.

Fitted to BF111 Wagon - 215/60-16 price $145 each made in Japan. Currently driven 40,000 km and expect to easily get another 20-30 thousand more. Tyres are still quiet and handle well in dry and wet. Not as quiet as Goodyear Excellence, but better grip. There appears to be more tyre roll while heavy cornering rounding off the edges more than on Toyo Teo, NCT5 or Excellence, but higher tyre pressure fixed this. Tyre does look narrower on the rim than original. Good balance, currently no need to rebalance after 40,000 km

Wet road grip was non-existent. Really truly terrifying. "slip sliding away.." to quote song lyrics.. Not needing heavy storm rain, but with the least shower sprinkle: all grip was gone.. Every time: slow down and slow down, still be slipping as trucks would honk and overtake. Bonus [yeah, I'm joking now..] 10,000km and the rear tyres were bald, absolutely dangerous bald..

An excellent tyre in terms of long wear and fuel economy.

Fitted four new Ecopia EP 100's to our Toyota Echo in 2012. Have done 73,000 km since and likely have 10,000 km of legal tread left. Fuel economy improved immediately they were fitted, but I put this down simply to the fact they were new tyres with full tread. Economy is waning again now, so will likely replace them again at 80,000 km.Total cost of purchase, fitting and four sets of balance and wheel alignment over the time has been $780. To divide that sum by 80,000 km (assuming we achieve that mark without requiring further service) will work out at a shade under 1 cent per km ..... Pretty good value in today's market.Having said that I must add that these tyres have not matched the performance of the original ones which were on the vehicle when we purchased it new in 2004. They were also Bridgestone, B391's, made in Japan. We replaced two at 98,000 and two at an extraordinary 118,000 km, although I should really have done so a tad earlier! Unfortunately Bridgestone no longer make this tyre ......... I wonder why?We've had no ride or comfort issues with the Ecopia's, not even a puncture and we've driven on many tyre punishing roads. I keep them inflated to 36 psi to counter for some road conditions. It may have prevented a blowout or two in potholes on some challenging roads, or we may have just been lucky.Terry (Perth)

These stick in the wet and are very quiet on the highway. Very happy so far. I do mainly city driving and the occasional long road trips, and they handle beautifully. My front and rear alignments were out quite a bit before I had these fitted, so it drives like a new car now.

These tyres feel different to anything else I've even driven on. I can't explain it -- and it's certainly not a bad thing -- but it was noticeable immediately upon backing out of the car park at Bob Jane. They seem to handle fine. The best part is that they've actually lived up to their claim to improve fuel economy. I always keep track of how many kilometres I get out of each fill-up, and since I got these tyres about four weeks ago, I've experienced nearly 5% improvement. I had assumed this was just hype, but it appears to be real.

I really started writing this review I response to the above lady who gave a bad review because these may not stop in time when you slam on the brakes at a kids crossing. Well this comment alone firstly shows this lady has no road sense and a lunatic. Why you would need to slam the brakes in kid zone is outright ridiculous. Shouldn't you be doing 40. How in the world would you need to slam on the brakes when you should be doing a safe speed where a slight pressure of the brake wouldn't stop you. They introduced speed limiters in cars for idiots like yourself. An all purpose tyre is exactly that and if you feel the need for a high speed rated tyre please stay away from any suburban streets. You may have been quite caring when you made your comments, and I apologise if this offends you, but I need to give you my take on it just like you did. By the way, I really enjoyed the first ride home on my Bridgestone Ecopia EP100.

This tyre is fitted to my vs Berlina s/w in 205/65/15 and are the 4th set of tyres I have had on this car. I also have an xf ute with Ghia mags and 205/65/15 tyres. So I have been through 8 different types of tyres in this size. I have had goodyear, dunlop, older bridgestone, maxxi map 1, yokohama a.Drive, hyfly hf201, hankook k406 and now these eco 100. So far overall these are better than all the rest imo. My ute still has Yokohama a.Drive. The last set of tyres I had on my wagon where the hankook k406. I loved these tyres and also had them on my ute. They where very quite with great wet/dry grip. The hankook are great tyres but are a decade older in technology then the eco 100. The difference between the two are that the eco 100 have slightly better to very little difference in wet/dry grip performance. The eco 100 are a more quite tyre, and there rolling ability is outstanding; which leads to better fuel economy. I will buy these for my ute when buy 3 get 4 is available again as I did for my wagon. $315 balanced and fitted. Great for tyres made in Japan and not China. I do not have the soft side wall issue that some people have said but the opposite. These tyres feel very firm and steer like a billy cart on rails. I am in my 50s and drive at the speed limit plus I also run 44psi in these tyres. They do have a more thump noise when you hit rough Melbourne roads, but I think because they are so quite this type of noise is more noticeable. They are also 10mm narrower in the tread than the hankooks and only time will tell how long they lasts. I got 65000km with the hankook k406. I have had to changed the way I drive as the car coasts for alot longer and faster now. But the best comment I got was from my 19-year-old son who said; Dad did you put a new motor in the car, this thing flies now!

Grip is good too. Fuel saving is amazing. With Potenza I used to get 4.0-4.5l /100km but I now get 3.7- 4.2 l/ 100km ( always Aircon on and with passenger). I set tire pressure 35 psi and I know that if I turn off air con and increase pressure upto 37 I would get 3.5 easy. In Japan, OEM tire size for Prius C is 14 inch not 15 Inch, no wonder people get early 3l/100 km mark in Japan with more later version 14 inch EP series.

I drive up to 1200klms each week on high speed single lane country roads and peak hour city traffic. I've had 4 sets of gorgeous Pirellis without complaint but finances forced me into a slightly cheaper budget this year, biggest mistake ever!These terms perform reasonably at lower speeds. Slam on the brakes in an emergency and they will stop well under 40km/hour.Give it 80km/hour and hit the brakes hard and the tyres completely let go once the forces exceed their ability to grip the road surface.This literally is the difference between stopping in time and the tyres letting go and plowing straight over the top of kids crossing the road.Do yourself a favour buy a better tyre. The extra you pay will be the cheapest life insurance you'll ever have!!!I'm going back to my Pirellis!

Got these fitted to Ford AU Falcon. Straight away I noticed when driving 100kph that I need to move the steering wheel a lot to make small corrections. Secondly I noticed the tires make a lot of noise when turning especially around a roundabout. I don't mean a squealing sound but like a gravel road noise sound. Finally the tread pattern seems to collect a lot of stones. This throws out the wheel balance. Not recommended for Australia conditions. Also no noticable saving in fuel as stated.

Have two Ecopia s on my 11 year old XTrail; they replaced two Bridgestone SUV tyres and so far, so good. They ve done about 15000kms without any issues and seem to be wearing pretty well. They are a quieter tyre than others I have used, too. They have handled adequately in the wet or dry (noting that the XTrail is hardly a performance machine, and is prone to a bit of body roll). I would certainly trust them more than cheaper, lesser known brands.

Fitted a set of these to my 1994 Ford Fairlane (205/65r15) as I wanted a soft & quiet ride & that's exactly what they give. Very minimal road noise on most surfaces, plenty of grip & with the usual rotations & alignments they wear quite well. However, they bring out their soft design if you push them into the corners. They begin to feel vague & squirmy no matter what pressure is in them. Having said that, they don't break traction in wet or dry conditions & it's also important to note that these are touring tyres for town & open road driving, not high performance. In all, a great tyre at a reasonable price for someone who isn't a hoon.

As soon as I drove with new tyres I noticed how much quieter the drive is. And yes they do roll well, and I feel more of a cruising feeling rather than accelerating continuously. Haven't noticed much difference in turning corners or stopping in the wet compared to previous model tyres (Dunlop sport sp 300), if anything they handle better. Overall pretty happy with them and can't really fault them even tho I rated them 4 stars.

Replaced my original Goodyear tyres on my 2011 Corolla with 4 of these Ecopia Ep100's. They are quieter than my previous tyres. The have much better grip than my balding tyres I replaced. There is no "squishy" feeling to them that I've noticed.Let me say the fuel economy is incredible. The savings on fuel will pay for the set in no time. I was averaging (pushing it really) 520-550kms per tank. I fueled up on my way to replace the tyres and completed around 55kms on the old ones and have just fueled up tonight. I did 625kms.I rang around for prices everywhere and came up with the cheapest price at a Bridgestone tyre shop (4 for price of 3 deal)and remembered from my quote from Kmart tyre and auto they would price match. I just happened to be going past Costco and didn't know which brands the sold. I was quite happy to tell them they were to expensive even with a $70 off deal. I asked if they priced matched which they do. To my pleasure though they beat the competitors price by $30 and they fitted them immediately. Go Costco. I will be going back for sure

I replaced my worn out Continentals with 4 Bridgestone Ecopias about three months ago. I was a little skeptical about the claims of fuel economy improvements but I was stunned to find my average distance on a tank improved from about 430 to about 500kms.

Sourced these tyres through my work @ $120 each (205/55/16-strapped to a 1998 Audi A4 B5 1.8t Sedan), replaced all four corners, I avereged between 580-600km per tank beforehand on some shockingly bad Horace Headway (yeah exactly, installed by the previous owner). Fuel consumption went to 620 on the first tank. The following 3 tanks were 650, 680 & then 715km, which I found pretty incredible to say the least!I'm averaging around spot on 700km per tank, give or take 20km. My usual tank is probably 75% highway, 25% short town driving (to & from work).I was tossing up between these and a set of Bridgestone RE002's, a much sportier tyre. I chose these as after some careful critical self evaluation I decided that I was not a boy racer, and the Audi is just used used as a cruiser. For me they were the same price, but these promised better fuel economy (which they have definitely provided) and a more comfortable tyre.I read some reviews of the tyre feeling very 'squishy' through the corner, or having a weird feel until you become used to it. For me this was never the case. The tyre has perfomed faultlessly from start to finish, very quiet on the road, great grip in all conditions, overall I'm very stoked with it.As I have said, I'm far from a boy racer. If you're looking (like me) for a high end brand name tyre that is going to perform superbly & be extroadinarily comfortable on the road then you're not going to go far wrong with this tyre.

Bought these at Jax as they recommended these over the Dunlop Sp 300E's we have on our Subaru Outback. Cost $520 including wheel allignment. Tyre size 195/65 R15. I drove out and immediately noticed how quiet they were over the suicide Kinforest Chinese tyres they were replacing. Then I took my first corner....the roll of these tyres seems excessive as the shoulder seems to flatten out rather than prop up the tyre. I stopped into the service station to check the tyre pressure and it was at 32psi as recommended by Mazda. I'll be doing a lot of highway driving so it'll be interesting to see how they go. Braking distances seem good as I purposely found out, yet to experience the wet handling. The U.S reviews online don't give favourable review on these. I wish I could swap back to the Dunlop's.

Surprising!

I used to be a Bridgestone customer, but was turned off after Turanza and Donut failures 15 years ago or so. A friend had bought these for his VY Commodore ute (we don t carry big loads in our ute) and I was surprised about driving on them while my car was in the panel beaters. They gripped and were great in the winter rains on roads where I would usually aquaplane in my car. Went and got some fitted to my Falcon 2 years ago now and 48,700km (only 2 tyre rotations during this period) later they still look brand new and have hardly lost a scrap of tread. Maybe its because they are made in Japan or maybe Bridgestone have designed a superior product at an affordable price, Im not to sure, but I am convinced I could get another 30,000km out of these tyres. Very happy!

fitted to 2004 lancer to replace worn yoko a-drives. Advantages: Quiet, good deal (four tyres for price of three), comfortable ride, ok in the wet, minute improvement in fuel economy (maybe .1 or .2l per 100km improvement). Disadvantages: a bit soggy in corners (not that this bothers me as I drive like grandma...). So far have covered about 2000km and will report back if I notice any wear issues.

I had a 97 Fairlane and replaced all 4 tyres at the advise of BobJane Campbelltown NSW where I have been purchasing over 30 years. They have always given me the best advise and this is no different. I had these tyres on for well over 40k with still very serviceable tread. Quiet for the best part and a great rolling resistance hence the name Eco.(pia) Living in Tas now so will find my local tyre guy for the next 30yrs.

Put these tyres on a 2005 Toyota Avalon, due to the promise of extra fuel economy.For my driving, which is about 75% on the Motorway (total about 800km per week)I found the fuel economy to improve about 8%, which I found quite amazing.On My wife's car, which just runs around town most of the time, there was not a huge improvement - maybe 2-3%.Performance and handling seemed good, but I don't push things as much as when I was younger. I never felt like I was going to have a loss of grip.I put about 25000km on these before my car was written off - they didn't appear to have worn excessively.

Got these tyres at Kmart auto and tyres at $109 185/65 14, i was the first customer they ever sold these tyres to and they asked me to come back after 5000 km and tell them if am happy with the tyres performance and fuel economy, These tyres do really performance in the wet compared with no brand tyres i had on car they handle a lot better and are quieter on the road plus you get about 35km extra each tank of fuel. Spend the extra $20 and buy a these tyres instead a no name tyre brand.

The cost of a new set of Turanza's for the Aurion was a bit prohibitive so Bob Jane said they had a 4 for the price of 3 promo on the Ecopia's. Strange name but he convinced me that they were equivalent to the Turanzas for general driving and they were the new low resistance (??) tyre. For an all up cost incl alignment of less than $600 for 215x55x17H it was a done deal. Have only had them for a month but no complaints whatsoever. Quiet (but then new tyres usually are) and I got my first surprise at the first corner - lifting off at the usual point I found that I had to brake harder as the car kept rolling - and it kept happening at every corner - so they do have lower rolling resistance. On my first trip I noticed the instantaneous fuel readout was dropping from 7's to 6.7 ltr/100km for a 6cyl Aurion at 100 kph so it seems to be true. Ride is softer also. Only giving 4 stars at the moment because I am dubious about long term wear - the Turanzas did 51k

I first purchased a set of four from my local Bridgestone store to soon have the front passenger show a huge blister on the wall, within two weeks of purchase. I had to fight tooth and nail to have them take responsibility for the fault and provide a replacement though sure enough a few months later the same tyre location had a complete failure. I have since replaced the spare with another ecopia to keep the continuity. I'm not convinced at this point that the tyres are durable as I was expecting to get at least 50k or more out of them but I've already replaced two. As these are low rolling resistance tyres they are supposed to be best suited for my hybrid and I've seen no loss of performance compared to the michelin they replaced.

These tyres have a VERY soft side wall. Not suited for hills driving or front wheel drive vehicles.Bridgestone's push for eco friendly tyre. They are dearer than standard bridgestone tyre, yet claim better fuel economy? So the savings in fuel is offset by the cost of the tyre. Not good marketing!Poor mileage and really chop out the outer edges on the front tyres.

Went to Bridgestone Select in Albany Creek and saw Scotty & Simon. I needed new tyres within 12 months of the last set, needless to say I was extremely annoyed. These guys advised on a set of Ecopia's and I couldn't be happier. The ride is sensational and smooth. I was a bit of a sceptic when first told about what the Ecopia's are meant to be like. Not anymore. The service from Bridgestone Select Albany Creek is sensational with no nonsense advice and being an ex mechanic I'm very wary about getting stitched up. I'm so happy to say I've found the mechanics to do work on my cars without the feeling of being got at. The new tyres came with a care package, so the guys send me an email when they need to be rotated, wheel alignment checked and so on, just to make sure you get a good life from the tyres. Really couldn't be happier with Ecopia's and service from Bridgestone Select Albany Creek.

I have always had good road handling and always felt safe so, Ive booked in for my next set of tyres - same again (based on the performance of the Bridgestone Ecopia - their performance and durability). This time I might try nitrogen inflation as well. Happy Customer.

The first time I used nitrogen inflated tyres 2 full tyre sets ago, I immediately felt just how good the effect was on roll,stability, solidity, and fuel reduction.I've immediately felt the very same effect with these tyres, only better.Do yourself a favour ~ try these tyres, & ALWAYS inflate with nitrogen = amazingly positive difference.I simply cannot believe the negative reviews on this page ~ these peeps MUST either own a competition brand dealership (how else could anyone buy 4 new tyres and replace them straight away?), or what they call "normal" driving is actually far more radical than is safely acceptable.

I bought these tyres from Jax Tyres in Moorabbin. They are great tyres especially when driving through puddles as the water dispurses out to the sides. Car feels solid on the road and so I feel safe when driving in slippery road conditions. Braking is good with these solid tread. As the name suggests.. ECOpia, they are supposed to provide better fuel consumption and tyres last longer. The tyres aren't overly expensive either. I paid $99 per tyre for a good brand tyre by Bridgestone.

Fitted to BF111 Wagon - 215/60-16 price $145 each made in Japan. Currently driven 40,000 km and expect to easily get another 20-30 thousand more. Tyres are still quiet and handle well in dry and wet. Not as quiet as Goodyear Excellence, but better grip. There appears to be more tyre roll while heavy cornering rounding off the edges more than on Toyo Teo, NCT5 or Excellence, but higher tyre pressure fixed this. Tyre does look narrower on the rim than original. Good balance, currently no need to rebalance after 40,000 km

Wet road grip was non-existent. Really truly terrifying. "slip sliding away.." to quote song lyrics.. Not needing heavy storm rain, but with the least shower sprinkle: all grip was gone.. Every time: slow down and slow down, still be slipping as trucks would honk and overtake. Bonus [yeah, I'm joking now..] 10,000km and the rear tyres were bald, absolutely dangerous bald..

I haven't rubbed them up against a gutter yet so can't comment on durability of side-wall which seems to be a common complaint (it doesn't seem fair to give a one star rating because of driver abuse though...just a thought.

An excellent tyre in terms of long wear and fuel economy.

Fitted four new Ecopia EP 100's to our Toyota Echo in 2012. Have done 73,000 km since and likely have 10,000 km of legal tread left. Fuel economy improved immediately they were fitted, but I put this down simply to the fact they were new tyres with full tread. Economy is waning again now, so will likely replace them again at 80,000 km.Total cost of purchase, fitting and four sets of balance and wheel alignment over the time has been $780. To divide that sum by 80,000 km (assuming we achieve that mark without requiring further service) will work out at a shade under 1 cent per km ..... Pretty good value in today's market.Having said that I must add that these tyres have not matched the performance of the original ones which were on the vehicle when we purchased it new in 2004. They were also Bridgestone, B391's, made in Japan. We replaced two at 98,000 and two at an extraordinary 118,000 km, although I should really have done so a tad earlier! Unfortunately Bridgestone no longer make this tyre ......... I wonder why?We've had no ride or comfort issues with the Ecopia's, not even a puncture and we've driven on many tyre punishing roads. I keep them inflated to 36 psi to counter for some road conditions. It may have prevented a blowout or two in potholes on some challenging roads, or we may have just been lucky.Terry (Perth)

These tyres feel different to anything else I've even driven on. I can't explain it -- and it's certainly not a bad thing -- but it was noticeable immediately upon backing out of the car park at Bob Jane. They seem to handle fine. The best part is that they've actually lived up to their claim to improve fuel economy. I always keep track of how many kilometres I get out of each fill-up, and since I got these tyres about four weeks ago, I've experienced nearly 5% improvement. I had assumed this was just hype, but it appears to be real.

I really started writing this review I response to the above lady who gave a bad review because these may not stop in time when you slam on the brakes at a kids crossing. Well this comment alone firstly shows this lady has no road sense and a lunatic. Why you would need to slam the brakes in kid zone is outright ridiculous. Shouldn't you be doing 40. How in the world would you need to slam on the brakes when you should be doing a safe speed where a slight pressure of the brake wouldn't stop you. They introduced speed limiters in cars for idiots like yourself. An all purpose tyre is exactly that and if you feel the need for a high speed rated tyre please stay away from any suburban streets. You may have been quite caring when you made your comments, and I apologise if this offends you, but I need to give you my take on it just like you did. By the way, I really enjoyed the first ride home on my Bridgestone Ecopia EP100.

So I have been through 8 different types of tyres in this size. I have had goodyear, dunlop, older bridgestone, maxxi map 1, yokohama a.Drive, hyfly hf201, hankook k406 and now these eco 100. So far overall these are better than all the rest imo. My ute still has Yokohama a.Drive. The last set of tyres I had on my wagon where the hankook k406. I loved these tyres and also had them on my ute. They where very quite with great wet/dry grip. The hankook are great tyres but are a decade older in technology then the eco 100. The difference between the two are that the eco 100 have slightly better to very little difference in wet/dry grip performance. The eco 100 are a more quite tyre, and there rolling ability is outstanding; which leads to better fuel economy. I will buy these for my ute when buy 3 get 4 is available again as I did for my wagon. $315 balanced and fitted. Great for tyres made in Japan and not China. I do not have the soft side wall issue that some people have said but the opposite. These tyres feel very firm and steer like a billy cart on rails. I am in my 50s and drive at the speed limit plus I also run 44psi in these tyres. They do have a more thump noise when you hit rough Melbourne roads, but I think because they are so quite this type of noise is more noticeable. They are also 10mm narrower in the tread than the hankooks and only time will tell how long they lasts. I got 65000km with the hankook k406. I have had to changed the way I drive as the car coasts for alot longer and faster now. But the best comment I got was from my 19-year-old son who said; Dad did you put a new motor in the car, this thing flies now!

Last month I replaced my four old Potenza tires with this EP100 on 2013 Prius C. 185/60R/15. Old tires were noisy. This EP100 is comfortable and queite but my wife can't tell the difference tho. Grip is good too. Fuel saving is amazing. With Potenza I used to get 4.0-4.5l /100km but I now get 3.7- 4.2 l/ 100km ( always Aircon on and with passenger). I set tire pressure 35 psi and I know that if I turn off air con and increase pressure upto 37 I would get 3.5 easy. In Japan, OEM tire size for Prius C is 14 inch not 15 Inch, no wonder people get early 3l/100 km mark in Japan with more later version 14 inch EP series.

I drive up to 1200klms each week on high speed single lane country roads and peak hour city traffic. I've had 4 sets of gorgeous Pirellis without complaint but finances forced me into a slightly cheaper budget this year, biggest mistake ever!These terms perform reasonably at lower speeds. Slam on the brakes in an emergency and they will stop well under 40km/hour.Give it 80km/hour and hit the brakes hard and the tyres completely let go once the forces exceed their ability to grip the road surface.This literally is the difference between stopping in time and the tyres letting go and plowing straight over the top of kids crossing the road.Do yourself a favour buy a better tyre. The extra you pay will be the cheapest life insurance you'll ever have!!!I'm going back to my Pirellis!

Got these fitted to Ford AU Falcon. Straight away I noticed when driving 100kph that I need to move the steering wheel a lot to make small corrections. Secondly I noticed the tires make a lot of noise when turning especially around a roundabout. I don't mean a squealing sound but like a gravel road noise sound. Finally the tread pattern seems to collect a lot of stones. This throws out the wheel balance. Not recommended for Australia conditions. Also no noticable saving in fuel as stated.

Have two Ecopia s on my 11 year old XTrail; they replaced two Bridgestone SUV tyres and so far, so good. They ve done about 15000kms without any issues and seem to be wearing pretty well. They are a quieter tyre than others I have used, too. They have handled adequately in the wet or dry (noting that the XTrail is hardly a performance machine, and is prone to a bit of body roll). I would certainly trust them more than cheaper, lesser known brands.

Fitted a set of these to my 1994 Ford Fairlane (205/65r15) as I wanted a soft & quiet ride & that's exactly what they give. Very minimal road noise on most surfaces, plenty of grip & with the usual rotations & alignments they wear quite well. However, they bring out their soft design if you push them into the corners. They begin to feel vague & squirmy no matter what pressure is in them. Having said that, they don't break traction in wet or dry conditions & it's also important to note that these are touring tyres for town & open road driving, not high performance. In all, a great tyre at a reasonable price for someone who isn't a hoon.

As soon as I drove with new tyres I noticed how much quieter the drive is. And yes they do roll well, and I feel more of a cruising feeling rather than accelerating continuously. Haven't noticed much difference in turning corners or stopping in the wet compared to previous model tyres (Dunlop sport sp 300), if anything they handle better. Overall pretty happy with them and can't really fault them even tho I rated them 4 stars.

Replaced my original Goodyear tyres on my 2011 Corolla with 4 of these Ecopia Ep100's. They are quieter than my previous tyres. The have much better grip than my balding tyres I replaced. There is no "squishy" feeling to them that I've noticed.Let me say the fuel economy is incredible. The savings on fuel will pay for the set in no time. I was averaging (pushing it really) 520-550kms per tank. I fueled up on my way to replace the tyres and completed around 55kms on the old ones and have just fueled up tonight. I did 625kms.I rang around for prices everywhere and came up with the cheapest price at a Bridgestone tyre shop (4 for price of 3 deal)and remembered from my quote from Kmart tyre and auto they would price match. I just happened to be going past Costco and didn't know which brands the sold. I was quite happy to tell them they were to expensive even with a $70 off deal. I asked if they priced matched which they do. To my pleasure though they beat the competitors price by $30 and they fitted them immediately. Go Costco. I will be going back for sure

I replaced my worn out Continentals with 4 Bridgestone Ecopias about three months ago. I was a little skeptical about the claims of fuel economy improvements but I was stunned to find my average distance on a tank improved from about 430 to about 500kms.

Sourced these tyres through my work @ $120 each (205/55/16-strapped to a 1998 Audi A4 B5 1.8t Sedan), replaced all four corners, I avereged between 580-600km per tank beforehand on some shockingly bad Horace Headway (yeah exactly, installed by the previous owner). Fuel consumption went to 620 on the first tank. The following 3 tanks were 650, 680 & then 715km, which I found pretty incredible to say the least!I'm averaging around spot on 700km per tank, give or take 20km. My usual tank is probably 75% highway, 25% short town driving (to & from work).I was tossing up between these and a set of Bridgestone RE002's, a much sportier tyre. I chose these as after some careful critical self evaluation I decided that I was not a boy racer, and the Audi is just used used as a cruiser. For me they were the same price, but these promised better fuel economy (which they have definitely provided) and a more comfortable tyre.I read some reviews of the tyre feeling very 'squishy' through the corner, or having a weird feel until you become used to it. For me this was never the case. The tyre has perfomed faultlessly from start to finish, very quiet on the road, great grip in all conditions, overall I'm very stoked with it.As I have said, I'm far from a boy racer. If you're looking (like me) for a high end brand name tyre that is going to perform superbly & be extroadinarily comfortable on the road then you're not going to go far wrong with this tyre.

Bought these at Jax as they recommended these over the Dunlop Sp 300E's we have on our Subaru Outback. Cost $520 including wheel allignment. Tyre size 195/65 R15. I drove out and immediately noticed how quiet they were over the suicide Kinforest Chinese tyres they were replacing. Then I took my first corner....the roll of these tyres seems excessive as the shoulder seems to flatten out rather than prop up the tyre. I stopped into the service station to check the tyre pressure and it was at 32psi as recommended by Mazda. I'll be doing a lot of highway driving so it'll be interesting to see how they go. Braking distances seem good as I purposely found out, yet to experience the wet handling. The U.S reviews online don't give favourable review on these. I wish I could swap back to the Dunlop's.
