Review on Bridgestone Blizzak VRX 195/55 R16 87S winter by Mateusz Odachowski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

This is my first Velcro, before that I rode amtel nordmaster and bridgestone ice cruser 5000 spikes. On asphalt, spikes are many times better (even if there is a thin crust of ice on it), in snow porridge it also feels better. Very quiet tire. I also want to note the main feature of non-studded tires, this is the absence of a sharp breakdown in emergency situations (the spikes are held to the last, and then abruptly torn off), this allows you to control the situation and drive the car. "Spike" holds spikes, and "Velcro" rubber composition (micropores and roughness), at low speeds, Velcro feels much more effective. Car without ABS. 90% of the city run (Hong Kong).

Pros
  • Quiet on pavement, good price, made in Japan, I don’t want to go back to spikes, excellent handling.
Cons
  • It slows down worse on ice compared to spikes (it feels like the braking distance has grown by a third).
