I have cheap Chinese I think, Nexan tires on my GTI because thats what the dealer put on the car. The ride real smooth, very quite and after 2 years and 20k miles they just wont' wear out. Probably have another 20k miles left to them. The wet grip is awful though. Dry grip is good.
Pros: smooth ride, very quiet
Cons: awful wet grip
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 20000 km

Nexen tires are cheap for a reason. While they may serve you just fine to putt down the highway they are inferior in about every measurable category to most reputable tires, lateral grip, braking, acceleration.
Pros: may serve you fine
Cons: inferior in every category
Too late, I already got them installed and went with the Nexens. So far so good. Very smooth ride and no noise whatsoever!
Pros: very smooth ride, no noise
I've sold a ton of Nexen tires and used them on all my loaner cars. I never buy the N5000's though. I stick to the Classe Premier line so CP641 and CP672 tires. I use them on my mother in law's Jetta and I have the Nexen Rodian HP on my Wife's MB R350. Decent tires. Not the best but for the price, they work very well.
Pros: decent for price, work very well
Cons: not the best
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
I had Nexen N3000's on the S2000 when I purchased it. While I know they aren't N5000's, they seemed to have an odd reputation on message boards. The 3000's were deemed fairly acceptable for the first half of their tread life, but then horrid at the second half. They went from having a bit of grip to driving on frozen hockey pucks. Mine were already fairly worn on the S2000, and they were SCARY. They were promptly replaced with appropriate rubber for the car.
Pros: acceptable first half of life
Cons: horrid second half, scary grip
Vehicle:
Honda S2000
