Bridgestone 005297 Blizzak LM001 Run-Flat 225/55R17 97H Winter Tire

The Bridgestone Blizzak LM001 Run-Flat (RFT) is an award-winning winter tire engineered for drivers who demand confidence and precision in cold, wet, and snow-covered conditions. Featuring advanced tread geometry and Bridgestone's proprietary NanoPro-Tech compound technology, the LM001 RFT delivers outstanding grip and control across a wide range of low-temperature environments — all with the added security of run-flat construction.

Key Features:

• 3D Multi-Cell Sipe Technology: Three-dimensional sipes are engineered to maintain block stiffness while preserving sipe flexibility, delivering superior braking and handling performance on snow-packed and icy surfaces.
• High-Volume Slanted Grooves: Aggressive angular grooves generate strong snow-to-snow shear force, providing exceptional traction on snow-covered roads.
• Rounded Corner Junctions: Optimized groove geometry improves water and slush evacuation across the contact patch, enhancing wet-road handling, stability, and control.
• Tapered Horn Lugs: Quickly clear the contact patch area, maximizing road contact and maintaining steering precision in wet and slushy conditions.
• NanoPro-Tech Silica Compound: Proprietary polymer technology ensures optimal silica distribution throughout the tread compound, keeping the rubber flexible in cold temperatures for consistent grip and road contact across a broader temperature range.
• Run-Flat (RFT) Construction: Reinforced sidewalls allow continued driving for a limited distance after a pressure loss event, eliminating the need for an immediate roadside tire change.
• UTQG Rating: Treadwear 100, Traction A, Temperature A

Sized at 225/55R17 with a 97H service description, this tire is designed for passenger cars and crossovers equipped with run-flat-compatible wheels.
