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.

Expert summary
Continental winter tires have been winning tire tests for many years, and the 870P is no exception. The “P” stands for performance, but don’t be mistaken, its rolling resistance is also praised, making it ideal for EVs. A well-balanced tire.

Did you know ...?

265/30 R20 doesn't belong to the most popular dimensions for winter tyres - there are 3 tyre models available, which can be compared to 155/60 R15, 170/60 R17, 160/60 R14. Let's break down the sizing - 30 is height of the tyre, which is calculated as 30% of the tyre width (265mm), which means the sidewall height has 79.5 mm. The wheel diameter is R20, which means it fits to a 20 inch/508mm diameter wheel. The total circumference of the tyre is 2095.44 mm, which is very similar to 235/50 R17(2094.81 mm), 205/70 R15(2098.58 mm), 265/35 R19(2098.9 mm), 215/55 R17(2099.53 mm), 305/30 R19(2091.04 mm), 225/35 R20(2090.73 mm), 235/45 R18(2100.78 mm). There are multiple speed indexes available for winter tyres in 265/30 R20: V(240km/h), W(270km/h). The same goes for weight indexes: 94.
