Bridgestone Blizzak LM-60 RFT Review

Bridgestone Blizzak LM-60 RFT is a High Performance Winter tire designed to fit crossovers, high performance cars, minivans, passenger cars and sport utility vehicles , currently available in 4 tire sizes, with the lowest price starting from $210.00.

High performance winter tires provide a nice blend of crisp handling, high-speed capabilities and snow and ice traction. These tires are branded with mountain/snowflake symbol to meet severe snow service standards. High performance winter tires often come in low profiles and large wheel diameter sizes to fit luxury coupes, sports cars, crossover and sport utility vehicles.

Bridgestone Blizzak LM-60 RFT is a run-flat tire developed exclusively for Mini Cooper, Mazda MX-5 and Lexus IS coupe and convertible models, as well as for BMW X5 sport activity vehicle and BMW X6 sport activity coupe drivers looking to combine winter driving traction on dry, wet and snow-covered roads with temporary extended mobility for a distance of 50 miles at up to 50 mph even after a puncture has allowed complete air pressure loss. The Blizzak LM-60 RFT is designed to combine the basic tread design of the Blizzak WS60 with a high silica tread compound to blend high-speed durability and dry road, cold weather handling with snow traction. Since the current Multicell tread compounds used on Blizzak winter / snow tires are not designed to support run-flat operation, the Blizzak LM-60 RFT uses a high silica content winter / snow tread compound molded into a directional tread design that features independent tread blocks with 3-D zigzag sipes to disperse water away from the tire's contact patch, further enhancing grip. The combination provides hydroplaning resistance and greater driving and braking force on snow-covered roads. Featuring Bridgestone's UNI-T Technology, the Blizzak LM-60 RFT's internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wound nylon to provide the desired high-speed durability and ride characteristics. The internal structure has been specifically tuned on a size by size basis for the vehicles listed above and features Bridgestone Side Support Run-Flat technology reinforced sidewalls to support the vehicle after a puncture causes a loss of air pressure. Blizzak LM-60 RFT winter / snow tires meet the industry's severe snow service requirements and are branded with the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol. Due to the traction capabilities of the Blizzak, Bridgestone recommends using Blizzaks only in sets of four to provide the best handling characteristics and tire performance.
