Bridgestone Blizzak LM-32 EXT 225/50 R17 94H
Technical specifications
Description
The new Blizzak LM-32 winter tyre car from Bridgestone features a directional tread and combines outstanding control and optimal performance in all wintery conditions.
New 3D sipe technology was employed in the Blizzak LM-32, leading to an enormous improvement in the contact area and edge effect, thus guaranteeing an optimal winter performance. Increased block rigidity improves both the general handling properties and the stability of this winter tyre.
Furthermore, the use of a new silica-reinforced tread compound not only guarantees optimal performance in the wet, but also greater grip in all weather conditions. The tyre offers maximum stability and ultimate grip on snow and ice.
- Superior braking and cornering on snow and ice
- Designed for vans
- Confident handling in winter conditions
Only permitted on vehicles equipped with a tyre pressure control system.
Manufacturer information
EU Tyre Label
The Tyre Labelling Regulation determines the information that must be provided with regard to tyres' fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise. Information is also provided on the product's performance in wintery driving conditions.
Regulation EU 1222/2009, which has been in force since 01/11/2012, has been revised and will be replaced from 1 May 2021 by Regulation EU 2020/740, from which point new standards will apply. The assessment categories for fuel efficiency, wet grip and external noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been changed accordingly. The manufacturers' product data sheets, stored in the EU database, can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. It also includes information on snow grip and ice grip for tyres that meet these criteria.
The following tyres are exempt from the regulation:
