Tyre reviews Bridgestone Blizzak LM005. Page 3 263

Tires are somehow hard. On asphalt, where there is no rolled snow, it seems to hold the road.
And where it's icy or rolled, they slide like on skates.

Excellent tires, I really liked them, they are really quiet on the highway, and when you press the brake, the grip with the road is maximum. I tested them in slushy snow and water, and on packed snow, the skid is minimal, the wheels are excellent, I recommend them. And I want to note that they smoothly handle sharp turns

Tires as indicated in the description for European winter, i.e. asphalt without snow and ice. I live in Kaliningrad, for our winter it's okay. Doesn't drive on snow and ice at all. Water on the road (puddles) - solid 4. Noise - I would give 5, but I'm not sure (I had studded tires before), I'll limit myself to 4+. Handling, what to say, the Fuego has a stiff suspension and a short base, for it, the medium roll in turns is just right, but again, you need to consider that the tire is for racing, more for clean asphalt roads.

A good tire produced in Italy.
On ice, I managed to get scared several times. Blizzak Revo GZ felt better.
On other points, there is nothing to complain about. It handles snow well.
On a wet road, it's good.

On dry asphalt, it's like driving on summer tires, and on ice, it's also like driving on summer tires. It loses traction on ice predictably, of course, but severely even at very low speeds. On loose snow, it grips normally, on compacted snow, it's slightly better than on ice. On dirt roads, it's average, it doesn't get stuck in mud, but it also doesn't handle it very well. Rain, puddles - it doesn't care at all.

The sidewall (shoulder) of the tread is already all battered, and it's only been two months. It didn't live up to my expectations (as it did in tests, always in first place), if there were more snowy days, I would have definitely gotten rid of it. Last season I drove on Pirelli Ice Zero FR and Hankook i2, I can't say that the LM005 is fundamentally better in overall performance, and it's definitely worse on ice than Pirelli.

Maybe it performs better in colder conditions, I haven't tried it and I don't want to anymore.

I prefer studded tires. Last year, I chose the LM005 - they performed excellently on snow and ice, and on asphalt, it was like driving in the summer. They are not prone to aquaplaning, allowing for a calm ride in both rain and snowfall. The tires are indeed quiet and comfortable.

I change my winter tires every 2 years!
Blizzak is always up to the task!
Handling is like in the summer!
I didn't find any downsides

Over 2 seasons, I've tested these tires on all winter roads - from freshly fallen snow to ice. What can I say: they handle asphalt and snow clearly, with even the slightest braking, the car responds immediately. On slippery roads, they are also obedient, but in this case, hardly any tire is 100% stable. My expectations were met, over 2 years they never let me down.

For a warm winter, it's top-notch. Wet snow, cuts through ruts with ease. Not noisy, sidewall is moderately soft.

Nowadays we get winters like this, so studs aren't even needed. I decided to try these studs. New ones, no one used them) I love it) It's well-balanced, almost without load. It holds the road well, rolls smoothly and quietly. Now imagine, I drove on them at 0 and around -5. I wake up in the morning, there's about 5 cm of snow, and -15, I thought I'd have to get studs in the
