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've gotta say. Bf Goodrich k 0 2 is my go to tires. I get almost 100 km out of them , on road off , off road towing, in construction sites , scrap yards and in snow. I swear by them
I run 4 chinese tires on my frontier, the 4 are the price of 1 bfgoodrich km3, i have 6000 miles on them, and heavy offroad (airing down to 5 psi, sand dunes, mud, rocks) and they blew my mind, how cheap and good they are.
I've used Nexen from South Korea and found it very decent compared to Chinese ones which 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.
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.
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.
KO2s are great in the snow, not so great on ice.
Tires don't do that crap BF Goodrich. The car rides great, if it has quality tires.
IMO those tires were bottom of the barrel. I would just replace.
