πŸ’‘ Is the Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 185/65R15 a Good Tire?

The Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 185/65R15 is a winter studless ice and snow tire designed for compact sedans and small hatchbacks. It delivers exceptional snow and ice traction with reliable cold-weather braking thanks to its Multi-Cell compound and 3D sipe technology. Ride comfort is good with acceptable road noise for a winter tire, though tread life is shorter than all-season alternatives due to the soft winter compound. Rated Excellent by TireRack based on 593 consumer surveys, it excels in harsh winter conditions but requires seasonal changeover and storage when not in use. Currently priced from $108.99, it is available through major online tire retailers.
