Bridgestone Blizzak WS90
Premium
3.8 /10 Conditionally recommended

The Blizzak WS90 was introduced in 2026 as Bridgestone's premium winter tyre. It is an absolute champion on ice, scoring a perfect 100% in tests, which makes it great for harsh winter conditions. However, wet grip is a disappointing weakness. It still finished third in the Tire Rack test, standing as a great choice for drivers prioritizing ice safety over wet performance.
