Ranked #3 of 10
The Bridgestone Blizzak 6 secured the 3rd position out of 10 competitors, achieving a final rating of 'Very good.' The tyre excelled in disciplines like longitudinal aquaplaning, snow braking, lateral guidance on snow, wet braking, and both objective and overall wet handling. It was noted for its very short braking distances and secure, dynamic handling with significant reserves on both wet and snowy surfaces. However, it exhibited relatively long braking distances on dry asphalt, sensitivity to load changes in dry corners, limited rear axle stability during quick lane changes, and sluggish steering response.
