Expert summary

Blizzak has always been a winter tire focused on wet conditions, but with its sixth model, Bridgestone has promised improved snow performance and reduced rolling resistance. Early tests suggest they have delivered on these promises—Blizzak 6 is unmatched in wet conditions and excels on snow, making it ideal not just for city climates.

Did you know ...?

285/40 R22 doesn't belong to the most popular dimensions for winter tyres - there are tyre models available, which can be compared to 325/30 R21, 155/60 R15, 155/65 R13. Let's break down the sizing - 40 is height of the tyre, which is calculated as 40% of the tyre width (285mm), which means the sidewall height has 114 mm. The wheel diameter is R22, which means it fits to a 22 inch/558.8mm diameter wheel. The total circumference of the tyre is mm, which is very similar to 245/35 R18(1975.12 mm), 160/70 R17(2060.26 mm), 245/40 R21(2291.48 mm), 165/80 R13(1866.73 mm), 245/55 R17(2203.2 mm), 175/65 R15(1911.66 mm), 255/35 R18(1997.11 mm).
