π‘ Is the Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V2 245/55R19 a Good Tire?
The Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V2 245/55R19 is a winter studless ice and snow tire designed for full-size SUVs and light trucks. It delivers exceptional ice traction and strong snow performance thanks to its Multi-Cell compound with bite particles and directional tread design. Ride comfort is good for a winter tire with acceptable road noise, though tread life is shorter than all-season alternatives as expected for dedicated winter rubber. Rated Excellent by TireRack based on 661 consumer surveys, it excels in severe winter conditions but requires seasonal tire changes and storage during warmer months. Currently priced from $218.45, it is available through major online tire retailers.

The Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V2 245/55R19 is a winter tire, designed for pickup, crossover, and SUV drivers who prioritize enhanced grip on ice and snow with reliable wet weather performance in cold conditions. Its tread design and compound focus on ice traction, braking performance, and hydroplaning resistance through advanced winter-specific technologies.
The tire features Bridgestone's NanoPro Tech Multicell compound with hydrophilic coating and microscopic bite particles that remain flexible below freezing while wicking water from packed snow and ice. The directional tread design incorporates 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 patch. Driver feedback points to exceptional wet and dry performance even in winter conditions, with strong comfort levels and reliable traction that builds confidence in challenging weather.
