Review on Bridgestone Blizzak Spike-02 185/65 R15 88T winter by Stanisaw Nader ᠌

If your car's soundproofing isn't top-notch, you might want to rethink getting spikes. I would not risk taking spikes in the icy conditions that existed in Hong Kong last winter. Others have mentioned that the snow porridge causes the grip to be poor; I didn't experience this myself but will be extra cautious in the future. Hired Experts: As a first point: 1) It was manufactured in Japan. Second, the spikes stay put. Even though the distance traveled is less than 10,000 kilometers over two seasons, every spike has been installed. Three, long-lasting enough that, despite the poor condition of the roads, tire fitting was not an emergency for at least two seasons. 4. Secure footing on icy surfaces. The car's behavior became MUCH more predictable when switched to the front drive from Velcro. Negatives: It's very noisy. There's a roaring noise that reminds me of a Boeing 747 taking flight. I liken it to Velcro and to other, less well-known brands of spikes.
