We're not supposed to but we drive these all year long on our Mazda CX-5. Lasted 44,000 KM's and worked well in all conditions, summer or winter. Could have gotten more mileage as the original set was only down to 6/32nds when we put on the new ones. Drove them through high mountain passes several times on both snow and ice with no problem. Love Blizzak. Nope, not a bot and certainly not a fake review. Live in Western Canada with lots of snow and ice for several months per year.

I've owned all of the brands and these are noticeably better than the others for true snow and ice conditions. It's excellent in rain and slush too. This is the tire for you if you need to drive in Ski Country or severe weather. Only thing that could improve is the road noise. I'm sure it's hard to have deep treads and no road noise. Take a look at the "New" tread depth compared to the competitors.

Haven't driven on these yet in ice/snow however the minute I looked at the installed tires I was glad we went with these. The tread is very substantial for snow and I feel well protected now if there's ice. Heading to Tennessee for Xmas and their weather can be iffy especially with ice. Thanks Bridgestone!

I have bought this tire before. Good traction, smooth. American Tire in Anchorage Alaska, fast friendly. ..... I have bought for five cars/trucks. Good tire.

Excellent performance on country roads, ice, hard packed snow, snow drifts they go through them all.

THIS IS MY SECOND SET OF BLIZZAKS. MY FIRST SET WAS ON A FORD FLEX ALL WHEEL DRIVE. IT WAS EXCEPTIONAL IN WINTER SITH THESE TIRES. THEN I TRIED ANOTHER BRAND SUPPOSEDLY FOR ICE AND WINTER ...NO COMPARISON AS FAR AS MY EXPERIENCE. LOOKING FORWARD TO SEE WHAT THESE TIRES WILL DO WITH THE HYBRID ELECTRONIC TRACTION AND STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEMS. MY EXPECTATION IS EVEN BETTER PERFORMANCE IN WINTER!

Been a loyal customer of Kal tire for 30 plus years. They always go above and beyond on customer service with a nice team atmosphere . Blizzaks tires are the best winter tire for B.C. as far as I'm concerned with our ever changing mountain conditions.

excellent product. great ride . quiet and smooth

Drove with these tires up a 35 degree incline while other cars slid past. Also drove on compacted snow, fresh snow over ice and deep snow. Every winter situation drove fine, I didn't speed of course. I have 20k miles on them and they still have 40% tread left due to the amount of rubber they have compared to other winter tires. I change them out for summer.

I have been using Blizzak tires for about 15 years on both all-wheel drive and front-wheel drive vehicles and can attest to the superior performance over just all-season radials. Starting, stopping, and cornering are all noticeably improved with Blizzaks. A co-worker suggested I try a set 15 years ago, and I became a fan immediately! Well worth the money, just for the peace of mind and safety!
