π‘ Is the Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 235/45R18 a Good Tire?
The Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 235/45R18 is a winter studless ice and snow tire designed for mid-size sedans and compact crossovers. It delivers strong snow and ice traction with adequate dry road performance thanks to its NanoPro-Tech multicell compound and advanced siping pattern. Ride comfort is good with moderate road noise, though tread life is shorter than all-season tires due to the softer winter compound. Rated Excellent by TireRack based on 597 consumer surveys, it excels in winter conditions but requires seasonal changeover and storage during warmer months. Currently priced from $232.33, it is available through major online tire retailers.
