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.

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 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!

Mid Feb 22 ice storm. Went up hill to Wheeling Park HS and had no problem getting there in 4 wheel drive with tires. Had to check I had to check the generators. This was a emergency. The power was out. Drove past trees blocking more than half of road with ice on road and trees. Went to back of the building in 2 wheel drive and tires lost traction only after I stop, and try to move again. I still moved with no problem after one second of slippage in 2 wheel drive. These tires are great. Best tires to have in winter.

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.

Fantastic in the snow, surprisingly good on ice, also very good in rain. And braking is great in all of these conditions. Can't speak to durability, I've only driven a few thousand miles. But they still look new after two winters.

We have gotten the most mileage from these tires. We have them rotated regularly which enhance their performance. We have never had even a flat during our 4 years.

I have owned several brands of snow tires over the years, however, for the past 17 years our snow tires have EXCLUSIVELY been Bridgestone Blizzaks. These are great snow tires that put all other brands to shame.

These tires are such a game change for winter driving conditions, like night and day compared to the factory tires. Winter driving is made easy with the Blizzak. Thank you Bridgestone for creating such an incredible tire!!

Excellent winter tire for Canada winter out west But not the best on ice as one needs claws or studded tires for ice.I just stay home when roads are ice covered as too dangerous for most of us anyways.
