Bridgestone Blizzak WS70
$200.00
Released January, 2008
The Pros:Grips the pavement well in the winter, very good traction. Feels stiffer and more responsive in warmer weather. Cut through standing water effectively.
The Cons:Start to visibly show wear soon after installation. Not as good in the rain as many all-weather tires.

They include a special porous rubber compound that cuts through thin water layers to improve grip on ice, a special rubber polymer compound that grips snow and ice better than Bridgestone's standard tires, and a wider tread to give better slush performance. It has four deep grooves to expel water, and 3-dimensional sipes that add block stiffness to increase grip in dry conditions. It is an all-around winter tire and features many of Bridgestone's winter-tire technologies.
