A good fit if you

  • Warm weather grip, responsive steering, and performance handling — what summer tires are built for.
  • Drivers who already swap to a dedicated winter set when temperatures drop below 7°C.
  • Vehicles set up for run flat tires — compatible suspension and a working TPMS.

Think twice if you need

  • Winter driving — summer tires harden in the cold and won’t satisfy Quebec’s winter tire mandate.
  • Anyone who wants one set of tires to cover all four seasons in Ontario or Quebec.

225/55R17 Bridgestone Turanza T001 RFT – Performance Run-Flat

Run flat design keeps you moving after a pressure loss — requires a compatible vehicle and a working TPMS.

What these tire specs mean

  • Load index 97 means each tire can carry up to 730 kg. Check your door jamb placard — the tire needs to meet or beat the load rating your manufacturer specifies.
  • Speed rating W is the maximum sustained speed this tire is designed to handle under proper conditions. That works out to 270 km/h under correct load and inflation — not a target, just the rated ceiling.
  • UTQG 320 A A is a manufacturer-assigned grade for treadwear, traction, and temperature performance. Useful for comparing within the same brand — but it’s not a mileage guarantee, and ratings aren’t standardized across manufacturers.
  • Summer tires are built for maximum warm-weather grip — dry and wet roads where compound stickiness and tread design matter most. They harden in near-freezing temperatures and are not suitable for Ontario or Quebec winter driving.
  • Run flat tires are reinforced to support the car’s weight after losing pressure, so you can drive a limited distance to get help. They only work on vehicles designed for run flats — compatible suspension and a working TPMS — so they’re not a drop-in replacement on most cars.
  • Vehicle type indicates the service category this tire is built for — passenger car, light truck, commercial, or other. Matching the right category matters for load capacity, handling, and safety.

About the 225/55R17 tire size
