The Bridgestone Blizzak LM80 EVO is a winter tyre featuring a directional tread that guarantees outstanding handling on wet roads. The model was designed for SUVs and is therefore notable for its excellent durability, reliability and superb performance, regardless of the weather.
The state-of-the-art rubber compound used to manufacture the Bridgestone Blizzak LM80 EVO guarantees excellent flexibility at extreme temperatures. This increases the area of contact between the Bridgestone Blizzak LM80 EVO and the road, ensuring better grip and therefore greater driving safety. The compound is also characterised by outstanding resistance to wear and mechanical damage. This means that the model has a longer service life. The engineers who designed the model also put a lot of thought into the distribution of forces within the tyre. This means that the tread wears evenly, making it possible to benefit from the full range of performance values throughout the model's service life. The modified blade design ensures quicker and more effective evacuation of water and improved protection against aquaplaning. The design of the shoulder blocks and tyre ribs has also been optimised, guaranteeing better steering behaviour, improved grip during cornering and dynamic manoeuvres and greater driving stability. The silica-enhanced rubber compound used to manufacture the tyres results in reduced rolling resistance, thereby decreasing fuel consumption and atmospheric CO2 emissions. All of these features mean that the Bridgestone Blizzak LM80 EVO is the ideal solution for drivers who place a high value on reliability, cost-effectiveness and top-level performance.
