Tyre reviews Bridgestone Blizzak Spike-01. Page 1 383

Hello everyone!

I bought these tires for testing on ice and snowy roads, as I'm an enthusiast of winter rally sprints. The usage conditions are quite harsh (bumpy track with potholes, gravel, jumps, clean ice and packed snow) and all this at high speeds and revs.

The tire performed perfectly, keeping the trajectory well (not worse than Conti Ice Contact 2), braking is decent, the sidewalls are strong, but wear off quickly.

I've been driving since 1st December and as of now, it's 30th December. I've been driving in temperatures ranging from -2 to +12 degrees Celsius all the time. I live in Crimea and we have a bit of snow, mostly after rain, and it's quite cold, ranging from -3 to -7 degrees Celsius. In short, the windshield with water is a nightmare. If it snows in Ukraine, there's a lot of it, and the temperature

I bought Bridgestone tires about 5 years ago for my Nissan X-Trail. Over the winter, I drove about 30,000 km. Every time I change my tires, I check the remaining tread and studs. The studs are all in place, maybe one or two are missing, but the overall picture is complete. The remaining tread is about 8 mm, and all the lamellas are intact. I'm very satisfied with the tires, they're perfect for city driving and occasional trips out of town. I was recommended them for these purposes at the time. The quality, wear resistance, and durability of the tires are at a very high level. The dense sidewall holds cuts well. Would I buy Bridgestone tires again? Definitely! They're perfect for Russian winters!

A top-quality tire – what’s the point of the Spika 02 when Spika 01 is available at a lower price? Not everyone is looking to indulge in showy rim designs from a reputable manufacturer. I did visit two offices in Rostov-on-Don, and while the personnel at the Northern office were friendly, competent and instilled positivity, the staff at the Western office on Gorky Street were totally different – a bunch of nasty people from the administrator to the fitter

185/65 R15 Chose around a month. Reread a lot of reviews and tests on different manufacturers and tires. Installed and ran a season. At the same time, both in the city and on the track. Made trips to lakes in Chelyabinsk Oblast, Lake Itkul (who was - that's understood!). The road is like that (7 km) as if bombed yesterday.... With experience, it already took around 20 minutes............ 2-3 times

215/70/16 are for a Chery Tiggo 4x2, a 2013 model, and I only used it for 3 winters before switching to a new set of Hakkapeliitta 7, which is a good tire, but not worth the price they are asking for, as they quickly wear down and the studs come loose. I only drove on them for 2 months before buying a new set, and I was very pleased with the traction, handling, comfort

The tires are good. Snowy porridge, ice showed themselves well. On asphalt, the stud works quietly. The only thing is on the driving axle, in the first season, I lost about 20% of the studs.

Good tires, have had no complaints during operation, all studs are in place, stability on the road is excellent, I recommend.

They fit perfectly to the car, High-quality manufacturing. In operation since 2019, season from November to March. Snow, ice, slush, on the highway up to 120 km/h. Studs are in good condition, 99% remaining.

Very pleased with the choice.

I'm not a professional, but I like everything. Rolled two seasons, the flight is normal. I recommend. Work tires. I drove both in the city and in the suburbs, no complaints.
