Technical features & benefits
Enhanced tread pattern and compound
Provide superior grip on icy roads
DM-V3 stops 9% faster on icy roads than its predecessor. The multicell pores in the compound and tread pattern absorb and channel water away from the tyre surface a reliable grip when drivers need it most.
Advanced compound formula
Improves tyre wear life
The special multicell compound deep in the tread helps DM-V3 retain its pressure in freezing temperatures and maintain contact on icy roads. Stiff upper blocks increase durability to ensure the tyre maintains its high performance.
* Stopping distance reduced by 9% on ice vs. predecessor.
* Based on the internal tests carried out by Bridgestone vs. Blizzak DM-V2. Tyre size 225/65R17. Tyre life depends on driving style, tyre inflation pressure, tyre and vehicle maintenance, weather condition, etc.

The Tyre Labelling Regulation determines the information that must be provided with regard to tyres' fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise. Information is also provided on the product's performance in wintery driving conditions.
Regulation EU 1222/2009, which has been in force since 01/11/2012, has been revised and will be replaced from 1 May 2021 by Regulation EU 2020/740, from which point new standards will apply. The assessment categories for fuel efficiency, wet grip and external noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been changed accordingly. The manufacturers' product data sheets, stored in the EU database, can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. It also includes information on snow grip and ice grip for tyres that meet these criteria.
