Bridgestone Blizzak WS90

The Bottom Line

The Blizzak WS90 is a solid choice for drivers in snow-prone areas, offering good snow traction and handling. However, its wet grip and lack of a treadwear warranty may deter those in regions with frequent rain or slush.

Important Note

The lack of a treadwear warranty and lower wet grip score could be a concern for those driving in mixed winter conditions.

Pros

  • Snow traction score of 8 indicates solid performance in snowy conditions, suitable for winter driving.
  • Handling score of 8.5 suggests good control and responsiveness, which is beneficial for maneuvering in winter conditions.
