Bridgestone Blizzak LM005
EU tyre label for every size: 167 sizes of this winter tyre compared with the rest of the market
The Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 is a winter tyre for passenger cars. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 167 sizes (356 registrations including load and speed variants), for 14″ to 22″ rims.
Wet grip is rated A–B depending on size, fuel efficiency B–D and external rolling noise 70–75 dB. Every size carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF), the mark for tyres tested in severe snow.
The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale is 225/50 R17 (Wet grip A · Fuel efficiency B · 70 dB), the weakest 285/40 R20 (Wet grip B · Fuel efficiency C · 73 dB).
On the EU market since January 2019; the earliest production week registered is 05/2019.

Wet braking from 80 km/h
≈34 m with class A, against ≈41 m for the most common class in this size (C).
Fuel efficiency
Class C, the most common class in this size: no difference to the typical tyre.
Rolling noise
71 dB against a median of 72 dB in this size (1 dB quieter).
Estimates from the class ranges in Regulation (EU) 2020/740. A label class is a range, so a real tyre can sit anywhere inside it. Every 3 dB doubles the sound energy.
All 167 sizes
The small figure under each class is the share of same-size, same-season tyres this size matches or beats (“–” when fewer than five tyres share the size).
