The Continuing Revolution
in Winter Tires

: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :


Ever since studded winter tires were banned in Japan and Bridgestone introduced Blizzak Studless Winter tires to help drivers get a better grip in the slipperiest winter road conditions they would face, many tire manufacturers have evolved their method of enhancing packed snow and ice traction. Drivers now have several choices when it comes to selecting Studless Winter tires to match their driving conditions.

To find out how capable the Blizzak REVO 1 is, The Tire Rack team conducted a Real World Road Ride and Performance Ice Rink Drive to compare the Blizzak REVO 1 with several other popular Studless Winter tires, the Bridgestone Blizzak WS-50, Dunlop Graspic DS-2 and Michelin X-Ice.
