Engineered with Run-Flat Technology, this tire maintains vehicle control and mobility even after a complete loss of air pressure, giving drivers added peace of mind on snow-covered and icy roads. Handling remains precise and responsive, with grip levels that inspire confidence in low-temperature driving scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Blizzak LM-50-RFT features Bridgestone's proprietary Multicell Compound, a winter-specific tread formulation designed to absorb and expel water and slush from the contact patch on icy surfaces. Dense siping across the tread blocks enhances biting edges for improved traction on packed snow and black ice. The directional tread pattern efficiently channels water away to reduce hydroplaning risk, while the specialized compound retains flexibility at sub-zero temperatures for consistent stopping performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerformance Profile\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeason Coverage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Winter\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout Bridgestone Tires\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in Japan in 1931, Bridgestone has grown into one of the world's largest tire manufacturers, operating more than 181 production and sales facilities across 24 countries. The company reached several engineering milestones early on, introducing Japan's first steel radial tires for trucks in 1962, followed by passenger vehicle radials in 1964. A landmark safety development came in 1986 with the debut of Run-Flat Technology, enabling vehicles to travel at up to 50 mph after a complete loss of tire pressure. Bridgestone expanded its global footprint significantly with the 1988 acquisition of Firestone Tire \u0026amp; Rubber Company.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBridgestone has a long history in motorsports, including years as a tire supplier in Formula 1, and has served as a Worldwide Olympic Partner since 2014. The company markets tires under several sub-brands, including Firestone, Fuzion, and SureDrive. Its core product families span a wide range of driving needs and include the Potenza, Turanza, Alenza, Dueler, Blizzak, Driveguard, WeatherPeak, and Ecopia lines, covering performance, touring, all-terrain, winter, and fuel-efficiency categories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does P225\/60R1798Q mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e225 is the tread width in millimeters, 60 means the sidewall is 60% of that width, and R17 is the 17-inch rim it mounts on. 98 is the load index (1,653 lbs per tire), and Q is the speed rating (up to 99 mph).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I get the full manufacturer warranty buying from TFS Wheels?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
