Because I dont see any WS70 reviews I'm gonna post mine.
So specs:
Bridgestone Blizzak WS70 205/55/R16
$900/set of 4, installed at Blaskin & Lane on Macleod.
Dry Road: Good. What I expect from a dedicated winter tire. Tires squeal if I corner on dry roads a little harder then normal. The backend can come out if I corner with more speed.
Wet/Rain Road: Cold concrete really help the tires. I can hold traction, no squealing tires, nothing.
Slush: Way better then the Hankook I-Pikes I had on my lancer. I can turn, no under steer.
Heavy Snow Fall: The best tire I have ever been on for this. I went looking to get stuck and I couldn't. I had snow up to the doors and I couldn't. I even stopped and sat there for a minute just to see if I could sink and not get out. I was amazing.
Ice: There is some tire slip due to the fact I can't/didn't want studded tires. But I can control this car no problem.
Braking. On dry/wet it brakes like a normal car. I don't noticed any change. On slush/heavy snow the braking is amazing. I didn't see a stop sign in time last night (I was getting itshay out of my eye, bad driver call) and did a panic brake and I stopped like I was on track tires in 30 degree weather. I was completely surprised and impressed. Ice braking is ice braking. It stops great but the back end does slide out a bit but I feel thats the 4 piston to the 1 piston brake set up.
So Overall
4.5/5
Dry/Wet
4/5
Snow/Ice
5/5
