“Came standard as "winter wheels" package for my E89 Z4. Used them Nov-April, 2011-2018 and sold them together with my car. They still had 5-6 mm thread of them! They were really good, a little noisy, but I guess I...”
Bridgestone Blizzak LM-25
The Bridgestone Blizzak LM25 is a winter tyre with strong owner feedback for snow traction and good dry grip. Ice grip is less convincing, though opinions are mixed.
The Blizzak LM25's clearest strength is snow traction: six of seven owners praise it, including one who drove through 30 cm of snow. Two also comment favourably on its handling in snowy corners. Dry grip earns praise from three owners, while two are positive about wet grip. Two longer-term owners are pleased with tread life, although their usage differs, so that is a limited guide to how long the tyre will last for others.
Ice is a less consistent part of the picture. Two owners find grip disappointing, while one is positive, so it is worth being cautious about expectations on icy roads. One owner also mentions road noise, but that is not a recurring complaint in this small sample. Six of the seven reviews score the tyre above 70%, making the overall owner view favourable, though there are too few accounts to be confident about every aspect. It looks best suited to drivers who encounter snow and want capable grip on dry roads as well.

Those tyres are very well suited to sports cars and sedans/saloons. They provide decent snow traction (as much as one can expect with a powerful rear wheel drive car!) but just as importantly very good dry and rain traction and handling in cold weather. Let's face it, it doesn't snow every day unless you live near the artic circle! So dry traction is very important.
Also critical is how the car feels, and the LM25 preserve the sporty feeling and handling of the car, albeit with lower grip limits as one can expect. Very stable at high speed (up to 120 mph/200 kph in my experience)
I highly recommend those tyres to anyone wanting to enjoy his or her sports car of sedan/saloon below 40 F/5 C.
