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.

I have purchased new three sets of Bridgestone Blizzak VM winter tires, three different vehicles, sedan, SUV, and off-road. They have ALL performed as advertised and expected!!! I have never been in any winter driving situation that my Blizzaks have not failed to rectify... ice, snow , slush, black ice. I wouldn't drive any other tire... FULL STOP!

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!

I have a 2005 Chevy Blazer LS 4Dr 4WD. I had some winter Goodyear Extreme Winter tires on my Blazer, and I thought all this time the roar in my bearings was coming from the bearings wearing out. I just had them changed out and still got the sound, not thinking it was coming from the tire. I purchased these Blizzak for this year's Colorado winters and noticed as soon as I had driven off the comfort and steering. Then there wasn't a roaring sound coming from my front end. I'm sold. I don't care what the price of these is. If I'd known that it was just the tires, I would have gotten rid of them before not, and it would have saved me another couple of $100s on wheel bearings. I have not tested them in the snow yet, but it will be soon with Colorado winters!

We live in Alberta, Canada. We ski in the winter and drive dozens of times through the mountain passes in inclement and unpredictable weather. Black ice and storms are common. I have driven in less quality tires, and I feel the difference, especially over time. Recommend only Blizzaks, and will even buy them for my young adult children to ensure their safety. Worth it, believe me.

We live in Northwest BC and enjoy skiing at a local mountain that is inland 130km. Of course, the best days to ski are the worst days on the roads and we experienced every condition this past winter, including slush, sheer ice and deep snow. These tires (Blizzak DV-M2) instill nothing but confidence. I can't say enough...if you are considering a set for your next winter season buy them! You will not be disappointed.

I purchased 4 Bridgestone Blizzaks WS-70 new winter tires in 2013 for my then new Ford Escape and used them for each winter up to 2021 and they worked amazing and are still in good condition. Bought a 2022 Ford Escape recently and had to upgrade to a larger winter tire and chose the Blizzak DM-V2 winter tires and on the ride home from OK Tire in Owen Sound and I already noticed a smooth and quiet ride.

This is my third set of Blizzak tires. The first two on a 2007 Nissan Murano kept me comfortably and confidently on the road during the winters here in the northeast. There was no question this would again be my choice for winter driving on my new 2022 Nissan Murano. The only difference this time is I had them mounted on a dedicated set of rims which provides more flexibility as to when they go on and come off the vehicle.

I travel home home to WhistlerBC and Penticton. I've woken up to 3 feet of snow. Unplowed roads. Mountain highway and never had an issue. Just the piece of mind knowing that I have the best tires for a safe trip. Nothing stopping me! I can't say enough about these tires. This is my 3rd set. I have them on both my Subaru's.

I have been running Blizzak winter tires on at lest my last 10 vehicles. They have ranged from pickups, a Dodge van, various SUVs, a Prius, a BMW and a few Mercedes. My wife wants them on anything she will be driving in the winter. I particularly like the security afforded when driving on some icy patches. Yes, they may seem like a luxury, but if you get them off early in the spring before the roads are dry and hot you will get many miles from them. Just got some DM-V2s on our Grand Cherokee today and they will get tested in the overnight snow. If you live where it snows you need Blizzaks on your vehicle.
