Bridgestone Blizzak DM V2 - 255/60R18 - 112S 

The Blizzak DM-V2 is Bridgestone's Light Truck/SUV Studless Ice & Snow winter tire developed for the drivers of pickup, crossover and sport utility vehicles looking for enhanced grip in slush, snow and on ice. Designed with a focus on ice traction and braking, as well as wet road handling and hydroplaning resistance, the Blizzak DM-V2 offers wintertime driving competence.

Blizzak DM-V2 tires use Bridgestone's adaptive NanoPro Tech Multicell compound that features a water-loving hydrophilic coating and microscopic bite particles. The Multicell compound remains flexible in below-freezing conditions, wicks water off packed snow and ice while the bite particles deliver more grip and improve braking on glare ice. This compound is molded into a directional tread design featuring 15% more aggressive block edges (than the Blizzak DM-V1 it replaces) where wide lateral and circumferential grooves help channel water, slush and snow away from the contact area for added traction while 3D zigzag sipes increase the number of snow biting edges.

The Blizzak DM-V2 radial meets the industry's severe snow service requirements and is branded with the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol.

NOTE: The first 55% of the Blizzak DM-V2's tread depth features the NanoPro Tech Multicell Compound while the remaining 45% features a standard winter tire compound. When the Blizzak DM-V2 is approximately 50 percent worn, a depth indicator molded into the tread design lets the driver know that the remaining tread is reaching the end of its ability to provide beneficial snow traction.

• Install Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V2 tires in sets of four only.
• Due to the revolutionary traction capabilities of the Blizzak, Bridgestone recommends using them only in sets of four to provide the best handling characteristics and tire performance.
• Winter tires are not UTQG Rated

WARRANTY - INSURANCE - FINANCE - MEANS OF PAYMENT - DECISION GUIDE

• WARRANTY: All our marketed products are completely new and therefore have the Original Manufacturer's Warranty. Usually the Warranty is 5 years, from the purchising date. That is why it is important to keep the invoice in a safe place together with the other vehicles documents.
• INSURANCE: It is a good idea that to have good insurance coverage. Achieving an adequate minimization of risks makes it possible to live with greater peace of mind. Get instant insurance quote online. In addition and depending on the geographical area in which you are, we offer insurance against tire breakage and punctures. Remember that some auto insurance policies include coverage for theft of tires, and therefore the Insurance Company should cover all replacement costs. Finding a good insurance advisor also allows you not to double costs of insurance coverage if those same events are included in an existing one. This requires specific professional and technical knowledge to analyze the scope of each insurance contract. Thats why we recommend working with a sole insurance agent. Find out the ideal insurance for your vehicle, property, company or commercial activity, which includes, Health insurance, Automobile insurance, Travel Insurance, Pet Insurance, Home insurance, Electronics Insurance,  Civil Liability, Fire insurance, Robbery insurance, Life insurance, Farmer insurance, All Risk included, Frost and Hail insurance, etc. 
• FINANCE: In many purchasing decisions, the value of the good to be acquired has a greater weight. But what really needs to be analyzed deeply in the automotive world, is the cost per kilometer. We have seen some customers buying tires out of range (load index and speed), or old/used tires because they seem to be cheaper. This is a very common mistake, which pays off in the long run, because tires wear out faster (best case scenario) and therefore have to be replaced sooner or they can explode risking your family lifes (worst case scenario). We have also seen people buying "bargain" tires that are not suitable for normal use. Example: snow tires in regions with very low meteorological probability. This prematurely wears out the tire when working under inappropriate temperature ranges or conditions. Note that if a wrong decision making when buying tires, it may happen in a traffic accident that the insurance coverage claim may not be available!!!. Conclusion: sometimes what seems to be cheap ends up being expensive.
• PAYMENTS: Once the ideal set of tires has been chosen, considering the cost per kilometer, what remains is to define the means and the form of payment. At this point you can always opt for cash payments, credit cards, bank transfers and / or cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin Ethereum, Lite Coin, Binance, Stellar. Any of these options will be available according to the country, the market and the season of the year. Check online financing and payment options and available cryptocurrency exchange .
• DECISION GUIDE: Our recommendations in choosing the ideal set of tires or spare parts for your vehicle, is based on metrics, big data, artificial intelligence, machine learning, combining large amounts of data provided by our customers and specialized workshops using all available technology (wireless, bluetooth, mobile apps, RFID, etc). All this data is processed in our distributed computing centers in determining the real cost per km.
