About This Tire

The Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V2 245/65R17 is a studless winter tire designed for pickup, crossover, and SUV drivers who prioritize enhanced grip on ice and snow while maintaining solid wet road performance. Its tread design and compound focus on ice traction and braking capability through specialized materials and aggressive block geometry.

The tire features Bridgestone's NanoPro Tech Multicell compound with hydrophilic coating and microscopic bite particles that remain flexible in freezing temperatures while wicking water from ice surfaces. The directional tread pattern includes 15% more aggressive block edges than its predecessor, combined with wide lateral and circumferential grooves that channel water, slush, and snow away from the contact area. Driver feedback points to strong performance across winter conditions, with particularly notable ice and snow traction while maintaining good comfort levels.

Compared to all-season tires, it prioritizes maximum winter traction and safety over year-round versatility. Overall, it's a solid choice for light truck and SUV owners who need dependable winter performance in snow, ice, and cold wet conditions.
