Bridgestone, the world’s largest tyre and rubber company, has revamped its premium Blizzak winter tyre range. With a unique tread pattern and made with Bridgestone’s state-of the-art Nano Pro-tech compound, the Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 gives drivers exceptional control and safety even in challenging conditions. With Blizzak LM005, drivers can experience optimum performance in the wet, snow and on ice.
Ready for the unexpected
Winters across Europe are becoming more unpredictable, with new rainfall extremes, frequent sub-zero temperatures and snowfall in some areas for the first time in years.
In those challenging conditions, keeping trajectory and managing braking distance is a great concern for drivers. In the snow and ice, routine procedures such as uphill driving and avoiding obstacles become more difficult and treacherous to perform. Which is why the performance of the tyre – the only part of the vehicle to touch the road’s surface – becomes all the more important.
Bridgestone has developed the Blizzak LM005 to bring drivers peace of mind and convenience. Drawing on research of 20,000 drivers across Europe, the Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 was created with a strong insight into the expectations and real challenges they face to offer them outstanding control and safety in all winter conditions, especially on snow and ice.
Top Rated performance
Tested in various snow conditions to ensure the best overall performance, the Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 delivers outstanding snow & ice performance in addition to best in class wet grip and braking. Tested by TÜV SÜD – one of Europe’s most respected independent automotive testing institutes, Blizzak LM005 has been ranked in the industry’s top two for snow braking, snow traction and ice braking performances.
Like Bridgestone’s summer touring tyre Turanza T005, the Blizzak LM005 was also awarded best-in-class performance in wet grip and braking.This makes it the highest rated winter tyre for wet braking and cornering in TÜV SÜD tests, and the first winter tyre to achieve EU Label A in wet grip for its full line-up. With wet weather the most common challenging road condition faced during winter, the Bridgestone Blizzak LM005’s outstanding wet performance is a key feature of the tyre.
