I had some nexens on a passat years ago, absolute trash. Traction was so bad I could spin them with the crappy 5 cyl on dry pavement
I have other winter tires but THESEEEEEEEEEEEEEE - Day and night difference for specially Win-guards sports 2. Last winter, i was beating everyone on the highway with good amount of snow falling. Even and were slowing down in Boston highway 1-93 as I was on my way to Montreal
From our personal experience and also clients’ feedback we have had much better performance with the Sport R compared to the RT660. Autocross conditions will have the Sport R need a little more warmup, however it does not fall off as much as the RT660 (especially after heat cycles) and yes longevity is much longer on the Sport R. The RT660 also has a tread splicing issue that we really don’t like to see in a performance tire.
I ran the Sport R on my ES MR2 after V730. The wear was better, better feel all around and probably slightly faster
While I agree that these tires have lived a full life and should be replaced, it’s impressive how well these tires have held up after 15 years. Nexen - I’m impressed.
I finally got sick of them on my 2019 at about 21k miles with the rainy winter we had in Southern California and slipping all over the place.
I've got about 60k km on my OEM Nexen tires. They are definitely on the way out, they slip on wet roads now when accelerating.
I got about 26,000 miles from the Nexen.
the stock OE tires are absolute garbage but they'll work just fine if you live in warmer climate area. I put mine through a single winter in buffalo ny area. it was a bad idea but if you're a good driver, you can manage the LACK of ANY traction.
I've driven 65.000km and I'm through one set of Continental All Season Contact 1 and one set of Nexen.
The all season contact lasted for 35.000km the Nexen one for two summer.
