Bridgestone 014397 Blizzak LM005 255/45R20 101T Winter Performance Tire

The Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 is a premium performance winter tire engineered for passenger cars, sports coupes, performance sedans, and CUVs. Designed to deliver confident traction and control in cold-weather conditions, the Blizzak LM005 combines advanced tread technology with an innovative compound to keep you moving safely through snow, ice, slush, and wet winter roads.

At the heart of the LM005's performance is Bridgestone's Nano Pro-Tech compound, which uses nano-selective mixing technology to achieve superior silica dispersion throughout the tread. This allows the compound to remain pliable and flexible at low temperatures, maintaining consistent grip and braking performance even in harsh winter conditions.

Key Features:

• 2D and 3D Sipe Technology: A combination of 2D sipes in the center tread and 3D sipes in the shoulder zones creates additional biting edges for enhanced grip, delivering excellent braking performance and reduced stopping distances on snow- and ice-covered roads
• Zigzag Grooves with Angular Edges: Deep directional zigzag grooves improve interlocking grip between compacted snow in the grooves and snow on the road surface, maximizing traction in heavy snow conditions
• Nano Pro-Tech Compound: Advanced silica dispersion technology keeps the tread compound flexible in freezing temperatures for consistent contact patch performance and superior wet and snowy road grip
• Directional Tread Pattern: Enhances traction and handling performance, efficiently evacuating water and slush to reduce hydroplaning risk
• Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) Certified: Meets severe snow service requirements and is M+S rated for all-around winter confidence
• High Sipe Density: Densely packed sipes throughout the tread block maximize biting edges for improved snow and ice traction
