225/50R17 Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 98H XL

Description

The Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 is a winter tyre model designed for driving in Central European winter conditions, where temperatures often hover around 0ºC. In recent years, Latvia has also experienced such winter weather conditions and it is in these conditions that this model performs best.

Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 main features

+2D and 3D sipes improve grip on snow and ice, further improving manoeuvrability and making the ride softer.

+Slotted drainage grooves improve performance in snow.

+Rubber compound enhanced with Nano Pro-Tech technology.

High braking performance

The entire tread pattern is covered with densely spaced sipes. 2D sipes in the centre of the tread improve traction on snowy and icy roads and make the ride quiet and comfortable. In contrast, the 3D sipes are located in the shoulder area of the Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 and provide grip and manoeuvrability on wet road surfaces.

Serrated drainage grooves in the Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 tread

The tread blocks are arranged in such a way as to create saw-shaped drainage grooves between the centre area and the shoulder blocks. This type of drainage groove improves performance in snow.

Increased efficiency on any road surface

The tread is made from a rubber compound that has been enhanced with Nano Pro-Tech technology. This allows the tyre to remain flexible even at relatively low temperatures, allowing it to provide excellent grip on a wide range of road surfaces - but that's not all! Nano Pro-Tech also improves the tyre's impact resistance and slows tyre wear. The Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 's safety in winter weather and its compliance with countries with mandatory seasonal tyre changes is confirmed by a snowflake marking on a mountain background with three peaks (3PMSF).
