    Winter tyres:

    Designed for temperatures below 7°C. Summer tyre rubber hardens in the cold and loses grip, while a winter compound stays soft and holds the road in cold, wet and snowy conditions.

Product description & features

The Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 is a winter tyre for passenger vehicles that focuses on preventing sliding while braking on wet pavement and on snow. It uses a high-silica tread that is flexible in low temperatures. Its Nano Pro-Tech distributes small amounts of silica throughout the tyre making it grip wet pavement. The LM005 utilises high density 3D sipes. Goroves sipes run front to back to channel water out of the tyre.

The LM005 is the successor of the Blizzak LM001 in Bridgestone's European winter range. Upon its launch in 2019, Bridgestone called it the first winter tyre to receive the EU wet-grip label of A. Bridgestone also claims that the LM005's V-shaped tread channels water from the centre and along the sides, creating a path for water to evacuate from the tyre. At Tyres.co.uk, we have stock of the Bridgestone Blizzak LM005.

Highlights

  • High-silica tread for low temperatures
  • High-density 3D sipes

Tyre review for Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 205/55R17 95V XL
Exceptional performance in wet conditions. That's exactly why I picked these winter tyres, especially for the gloomy British winter. They have an incredible grip in wet conditions. I'm really pleased with them and I hope they last.

Tyre review for Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 205/55R17 95V XL
Reasonable fuel consumption; they have coped well with icy roads and a little snow and slippery areas. They are quite quiet and there is little noise from the road.

Tyre review for Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 205/55R17 95V XL
Great performance in the snow and rain. In warmer weather, it feel some what soft. Overall, I'm happy with it. I've only had them for one winter, and they took me to places my summer Goodyears could only dream of (like home)!

Tyre review for Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 205/55R17 95V XL
Everything seems to be going well. I have still yet to have the chance to use them in snow, but they give me a lot of confidence driving on icy back roads. I have not noticed any improvement in fuel consumption compared to my summer tyres and the handling feels the same to me.

Tyre review for Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 205/55R17 95V XL
It was a gentle winter season, so they did not have to deal with more challenging weather conditions. Still, they nice to handle and grip in the rain.

These tyres perform exceptionally in snow and ice. I've had experience with other winter tyres and these are far better.

Tyre review for Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 205/55R17 95V XL
I was able to drive through the unmarked snow of the Pyrenees mountains which was about 30 centimetres deep (I had the Quattro chains on the front) and I must say that the tyres came through for me. The way they dealt with the snow was nothing short of incredible and when I returned to everyday driving in the UK, there was absolutely no difference.

Tyre review for Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 205/55R17 95V XL
Wonderful traction on wet surfaces and excellent petrol consumption. They might sound a little noisy if you don't know winter tyres, but I don't mind the noise. I drive a large 4x4 so it's not an issue.
