Blacklion BW56 Winter Tamer

The current level of development of the global tire industry is such that even lesser-known manufacturers are capable of offering highly competitive tires with an attractive set of operational properties. One of the bright representatives of this small category is the Blacklion BW56. This winter model is designed for operation mainly in the city with rare visits to out-of-town highways.

Winter-optimized compound

A significant part of the numerous advantages of this tire, to a greater or lesser extent, is related to the technical characteristics of the tread rubber compound. It includes a range of chemicals that provide elasticity even in severe frost. Thanks to this, the tire stands out for its good behavior on any winter roads.

Multifunctional design of longitudinal drainage grooves

Between the four longitudinal ribs, there are drainage grooves that, in addition to their significant size, are distinguished by an original design of the side walls. They have a serrated shape, which gives them additional functionality. It consists in providing additional traction on snow. At the same time, the main function, namely the rapid removal of water and snow masses from the contact patch, is ensured by the large internal volume of the drainage grooves.

Key features of Blacklion BW56
