The Blizzak LM-32 RFT (Run-Flat Technology) is Bridgestone's Performance Winter / Snow tire designed to provide temporary self-supporting run-flat continuing mobility in the case of complete air loss due to a puncture during winter driving. Designed for the drivers of BMW 1-, 3- and 5-Series sedans, as well as 6-Series coupes and convertibles. Blizzak LM-32 RFT Performance Winter tires allow drivers to maintain their vehicle's sporty appearance and mobility while providing winter driving traction on dry, wet and snow-covered roads.

Blizzak LM-32 RFT winter tires feature Bridgestone's latest performance winter compound technology molded into a directional tread design to combine hydroplaning resistance on wet and slush-covered roads with confident grip and braking traction in cold winter conditions. Rounded shoulders enhance dry and wet road handling while independent tread blocks employing the Lamellen "edge effect" (multiple biting edges in the tread blocks to help grip snow and ice) enhance winter traction without resorting to traditional metal studs. This allows Blizzak LM-32 RFT tires to combine winter traction, H-speed rated capability and the extended mobility available from run-flat tires.
Blizzak LM-32 RFT winter tires meet the industry's severe snow service requirements and are branded with the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol.
Note: Snow platform indicators (the equivalent of snow wear bars) are molded into the Blizzak LM-32 RFT's tread grooves to inform the driver when ice and snow traction will be reduced as the tire's treadwear reaches the point where the remaining tread depth becomes less effective in deep snow.
Install Bridgestone Blizzak LM-32 RFT tires in sets of four only.
Due to the traction capabilities of the Blizzak LM-32 RFT, Bridgestone recommends using Blizzak LM-32 RFT tires only in sets of four to provide the best handling characteristics and tire performance.
Though they cannot be labeled as run-flat tires, tires branded with MOExtended or MOE on their sidewalls offer run-flat-like characteristics by delivering limited temporary extended mobility after a puncture results in complete loss of air pressure. Because MOExtended or MOE tires do not have the same speed and distance endurance of conventional run-flat tires, they should not be substituted in any situation where a conventional run-flat tire is required. To confirm what your vehicle needs, check our Original Equipment tire listing for your year, make and model or see your vehicle owner's manual.
