Description

The Blizzak W965 is Bridgestone's snow and ice tire designed for light commercial truck and van drivers looking to pull or haul heavier loads in harsh winter weather and road conditions.

  • Provides excellent traction on snow and ice
  • Very good handling on dry and wet roads
  • Superior ride comfort

Ideal for drivers of commercial vans and light trucks that have to face winter conditions, the Bridgestone Blizzak W965 has many components that improve traction performance and adhesion. For commercial transport types, the tire has all the features necessary to meet the requirements of high-capacity load vehicles. 

New technologies for Superior Performance in Winter Conditions

With a design enriched by advanced technologies, the Blizzak W965 presents an innovative structure of tread, which maximizes performance and offers a comfortable ride, a reduction in wear, and a superior grip on winter roads. 

In fact, a combination of advanced UNI-T technology multi-cell compounds ensures that the Bridgestone Blizzak W965 has a high-level performance for traction on snow and ice, something that is essential to face the winter conditions and to hold absolute control, regardless of the weather and road conditions. 

In addition, the tire tread has microscopic pores and micro-channels that absorb and disperse water for optimum ground contact on wet roads. 

The Biting-edges for Extra Traction

The tread band of the Bridgestone Blizzak W965 has independent blocks of a good depth of zigzag stripes and biting edges. Thus equipped, this tire has better traction capacity on icy snow and wet roads. 

A strengthened internal structure for greater durability and a smoother drive

To ensure a longer lifetime of the internal structure, Bridgestone's Blizzak W965 is made of a reinforced steel belt and nylon willing spiral, which improves the rigidity of the tape working for uniform tire wear. 

Also equipped with polyester housing and a robust carcass, the Blizzak W965 is enhanced for better ride quality, increased durability, and quieter riding.

I only bought one tire to be used (or not used) as a spare on my Mercury Marauder. I've purchased tires from PMC in the past and have been pleased with the prices and the free shipping when I buy four tires. Needing new Bridgestone Blizzaks for my Honda Accord in the fall.

I ordered rims and they were delivered in really good time. They look even better than the picture. This was the only company that I could find 14" rims for my 2012 Hyundai Accent. I even asked a tire shop to order me some and they could not find any. I gave them the number for PMCTire...lol

Phenomenal customer service, Don't think twice about ordering from PMC Tires, The Quality, delivery the ordering process and follow-up is all "Top Notch" no need to leave your home shopping for tires and rims, Do it online through PMC, you shop with confidence. And if a problem should arise which happened to me, they get 5 stars for customers service they resolved it quick and made themselves available for questions and answers. Can't say enough about how positive the experience has been with PMC. I am looking forward to my next purchase with them. Shout out to Val Noel, in customer service for the excellent service.
