Technical features & benefits
Distinct grooves in the tread pattern
Enhance grip and snow traction
+ Read more
One of the best ways to attain grip in the wintertime is to choose a tyre with grooves designed for winter conditions. Blizzak LM005 grooves are deeper and set in a zig-zag pattern to channel water, slush and snow away from the tyre’s surface and attain that extra grip on snowy and wet roads.
NanoPro-Tech™ in the compound
Earned EU Label Grade A for wet grip

Independent tests awarded Blizzak LM005 with EU Label Grade A — the highest label grade — for its superior performance on wet roads. The tyre stops faster and grips roads better because it uses NanoPro-Tech ™: an exclusive Bridgestone technology that contains bite particles and a silica coating to enhance the tyre’s wet grip.*
Special sipes improve braking distance
Shorter stopping distance on winter roads
+ Read more
Braking is fundamental for safe winter driving, and tyres with the right sipes — little cuts in the tread— can make all the difference. The Blizzak LM005 tread contains multiple 2D and 3D sipes to increase its contact with the road and bite through layers of snow and ice for maximum control.
