Copied from tyrereview.co.uk, regarding the standard fitment Bridgestone Turanza ER300:-
<DIV ="tyretext">"We have these tyres (OEM) on a 2 year old (6000mile) Fiat Sedici 16v 4x4. I was just intriged as to what they were as I hadn't seen them before and I keep reading that 4 wheel drive with 'ordinary' tyres in poor conditions are worse than 2 wheel drive with winter tyres. In general use they're just another tyre however the following might be of interest if you have a small/medium 4x4/SUV with 'ordinary' tyres.
Remember the very poor weather and snow in the UK in December 2009/January 2010.I had no choice but to drive (to/from work)in the worst snow/ice/weather conditions for decades. The Fiat on these tyres with 4 wheel drive engaged and locked never missed a beat. It regularly climbed a 30degree snow/ice covered slope from a dead start and without a hint of slipping. I drove 25miles at 1 am on minor 'B'roads in 6" snow with it still falling in order to get home with no problems and drove round and through the carnage that was Basingstoke. This car on these tyres made some very serious (and expensive)4x4s look very silly in deed. The Fiat is by no means an off-roader but with these tyres I was very surprised (and very pleased) at its performance in snow,ice and the subsequent 'melt'. I wouldn't suggest you buy these tyres purely for their 'winter' performance but they might be worth considering given that they seem to work well with small 4x4s in poor conditions."

<DIV ="tyretext">Also they have done well (1st, 2nd, 3rd) in tyre comparison tests.

<DIV ="tyretext">Seems like on this evidence - Juke owners can't blame the OEM tyres.
