Review on Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V2 215/60 R17 96 winter by Micha Ambroziak ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

Long chose the L200. Prior to that, there were spikes Nok ian CAB. And on the last Outlander there were Nokian, only Velcro. They got it to the end . And Velcro and spikes are one story. After each season, I threw out 1-2 balloons with hernias. I’m generally silent about the spikes, half flew out. Bought these Velcro - just great tires. Balancing - 30-20g each asked for, no more. These are ideal numbers. All balanced to zero. They drive very quietly. There is almost no noise on Elika - but I can’t hear anything except the engine. I have heard the past. They also hold the road perfectly - both at 0 and at -25, and on a snowy road, in ice and slush. No complaints either in a straight line or in turns (size 265/70R16 is not small.). Of course, if you drive within reasonable speed limits. Well, in the unreasonable - so I sometimes love the same - with a predictable drift. Everything is very predictable. In snow and slush, I noticed that the tread is not washed out due to the widely spaced side blocks. As a result, he still could not land the car in the snow, although he tried. They paddle great. Hydroplaning - the same is excellent. Thanks to the same correct tread. I won’t write about porous rubber, because. I can't check this ad. And about braking on people - in comparison with previous spikes - according to my personal feelings - THE SAME! If you get on ice, then at least with Velcro, at least on spikes, there is only one way out - to maneuver under the chirping of ABS. Or you will be with someone in . opera. And to those smart people who write that "Velcros slow down much worse than spikes" I will say - gain experience first . Further -10 degrees, the spike is no longer able to pierce the ice and catch on. And the rubber is stiffer for studs - accordingly, it hardens harder and the friction clutch works worse. After -10 spikes and Velcro are already on par. After -15 and further - the spikes are already lagging behind. From 0 to +5 Velcro is better. After +5 and above - summer. Conclusion - spike works better only in the range from 0 to -10 / Velcro +5-0.-10-and beyond.

Pros
  • The price is not high, but the quality and characteristics are like those of the top ones.
Cons
  • there are none
