Bridgestone Blizzak LM-25 Tires

Tire Description
The Blizzak LM-25 is Bridgestone's Performance Winter tire developed for the drivers of high performance sports cars, sport coupes and sport sedans that require winter driving traction on dry, wet and snow-covered roads. Blizzak LM-25 winter tires are designed to combine good snow and ice traction with "European" high-speed winter driving performance. The Blizzak LM-25 winter tire's overall combination of capabilities is made possible by Bridgestone's UNI-T technology that brings advanced tire technologies together. Innovative tire design, construction and tread compound help maximize the tire's performance, ride quality and wear while providing traction in winter. Blizzak LM-25 winter tires feature a directional tread design with rounded tread shoulders to increase hydroplaning resistance on wet and slush-covered roads while enhancing dry and wet road handling. They use a high silica content winter tread compound to combine winter traction with high-speed durability (the current Multicell tread compounds used on most Blizzak winter tires cannot support H- or V-speed ratings). The Blizzak LM-25 features an independent block tread design that employs the Lamellen "edge effect" with multiple three dimensional ("3D") zigzag sipes specifically placed in the tread blocks to provide the biting edges needed to help grip snow and ice for winter traction without resorting to traditional metal studs. Blizzak LM-25 winter tires meet the industry's severe snow service requirements and are branded with the snowflake-on-the-mountain symbol. Install Blizzak LM-25 tires in sets of four only.

Customer Reviews
Installed a set of staggered Blizzak LM-25s on my 2008 Lexus IS350: 225/45-17 front and 245/45-17 on the rears. At first I was doubtful about the 245 rears, but followed Tire Rack's recommendation anyways. After a couple of cold, snowy months in Chicago, I'm very pleased with the LM-25s, I have driven them in deep unplowed parking lot snow (about 5") and no issues whatsover with the car. Amazing set of tires, steering feel is lighter than with the stock summers. Braking is excellent in very cold, subzero weather, icy, slushy, and unplowed snow as well. Sometimes I do have to put the transmission in snow mode, when driving on unsalted/unplowed roads, but generally, no issues, just keep a light foot on the gas, and you're good to go. To me, braking and turning is the most important characteristic about a snow tires, and these LM-25s have never disappointed me. Braking is very controlled, and linear. I had a 04 Subaru STi with all seasons, and this rear wheel drive car with winter tires performs better than the AWD Subaru!
