vs
Tires Nexen or ADVAN
I've used Nexen from South Korea and found it very decent compared to Chinese ones which can be noisy.
Pros: very decent quality
Cons: can be noisy
Nexen tires are massively better in quality and value. I trust Nexen not only with my life, but put them on two of my kids vehicles when they went away to college in the Dakotas (extreme climate variation and brutal winters). Right now we have three vehicles on Nexen tires. In general, Nexen tires are not only worth the money, but they give more value for the price than most tires... They are not the "best" tire out there, but they are a good, quality tire that punches way above their price point.
Pros: good quality, great value
Cons: not the "best" tire
I had the Nexen Winguard Sport (not the 2) on my 2019 Mustang GT. I drove that car (RWD, manual, 460 hp) for 3 winters on those tires and never had any problems.
Pros: no problems, good performance
Vehicle:
Ford Mustang
We use Nexen Winguard Sport 2 on our Focus RS AWD... they work very well... they are good tires and punch well above their price level in terms of performance and longevity.
Pros: work very well, good performance
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
I whole-heartedly recommend the Nexen N5000 Platinums... They are not the best tires out there by any means, but punch way above their price category in quality.
Pros: good quality for price
Cons: not the best tires
I have these, from Sams Club - using on a 07' Saab 9-3. No complaints.
Pros: no complaints
Vehicle:
Saab
Their tires do tend to ride a little soft, like you say... but that doesn't seem to affect handling at all. They are not the best tire, they are a good tire, but they are a better tire than the price you pay for them.
Pros: good tire for price
Cons: ride a little soft
I've used Nexen All Seasons and they weren't bad, not the best tires but for the price they were pretty good.
Pros: pretty good for price
Cons: not the best tires
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Camaro
Mine didn’t even last a full summer
Not comparable to the oem continentals, I preferred my beefier all seasons to the nexens.
Pros: none
Cons: did not last
Had one of mine pop on the way to my new job on the other side of the country- only 5k on some N’priz AH8s (70k warranty) replaced back in October.
Cons: dealer paperwork difficult
Mileage: 5000 km
