Review on Tire Bridgestone Blizzak Spike-02 185/65 R15 88T 1T by Micha Skolimowski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best product I have ever reviewed, I recommend it to everyone!

Commentary on the size 205/65 R15 that was installed on a Renault Fluence. In the past, I used Bridgestone Blizzak VRX Velcros. While they performed slightly better on ruts and in slush, the ice crust rendered them comparable to the least expensive spikes. The benefits of it include: They are quite good at digging themselves out of loose snow and snowdrifts, and they cling to the rolling ice crust. On the track, they tenaciously maintain control of the road until the layer of loose snow is reduced to less than two to three centimeters. Then you need to take a step back and think things through using your head. Puddles, dry asphalt, and ice all exhibit behavior that is appropriate and predictable respectively. Unrivaled self-assurance that, should it become essential, you will be able to brake more quickly than the vehicle in front of you. Various disadvantages: The grating sound that is produced by the studs, which are an essential component of these tires. They also state that harsh rubber, but because my suspension is soft and my profile is high, this is not noticeable to me. Oh, sure, snow porridge on the track that's been rutted is a real pain in the neck. However, I have not yet come across winter tires that perform well in conditions like these.
