Bridgestone Blizzak LM005

The presented tyre is marked with 3PMSF symbol (Three Peak Mountain Snow Flake). It means that the tyre meets the EU requirements for winter tyres. The symbol is awarded after thorough tests of a tyre model in terms of snow grip.

Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 is a winter tyre with outstanding grip. The advanced design offers full control while driving, but also extremely effective braking, even when there is water on the road. Excellent traction and full control of the car are the hallmarks of premium quality tyres from the well-known Japanese brand.

The Blizzak Series is the ideal tyre for European winters. They are perfect for both intensive frost and rain. All because of the state-of-the-art rubber compound called Nano Pro-tech. Specialists from the Japanese company have found an innovative way to distribute silica particles - nanoselective technology provides better braking and manoeuvring.

However, these are not the only technologies that provide the tyre with phenomenal winter performance. The designer has also implemented:

• a system of two different types of sipes used on the tread. They help to shorten braking distances on snow or ice. Specially prepared two-dimensional lsipes are placed in the central zone and the three-dimensional version in the shoulder zone.

• The grip in snow is also ensured by original grooves. With angled edges, they increase the contact area between the snow cover and the tread to prevent loss of control.

Bridgestone is the world's largest manufacturer of tyres and rubber products. Its name comes from the name of the founder Shojiro Ishibashi, which in free translation means stone bridge. The Japanese concern, however, is not only a leader in production, but also a pioneer of modern technologies. In particular, it stands out in terms of environmental protection. Bridgestone also has other well-known brands under its wings, such as Firestone, Seiberling and Dayton.
