I've been quite happy with my Nexens on my E39. They're quiet and smooth. Oh yeah, grip in the snow is quite good too.
I run Nexen N'Fera SU1 tires on my GTI in the summer: https://www.nexentireusa.com/tires/high-performance/n-fera-su1 Best budget tires I've ever tried. They are wearing nicely, grip in dry and wet is great. I was VERY surprised about the wet weather performance. I'd buy them again and again, no questions asked.
Bfg at's. Great in nothing, decent in everything. My favourite all around tire, that doesn't have any drawbacks.
BFG comp 2 a/s
Love my BF-Goodrich G-Force Comp 2 A/S.
I went with the G-Force Comp-2 A/S and paid something like $703 after installation, which also included a road hazard warranty. I found a really good deal and could have gotten some alternatives even cheaper, but the tire was the highest ranked in its category on TireRack. No regrets with the purchase, as these tires significantly outperform the Continental OEMs.
I ran Nexen N-Fera SU1 on my GTI this summer and they were great. Wet/Dry performance for the daily driver was great, noise wasn't an issue either. Seem to be wearing well.
I run 255/40-17 tires on all four corners of my Honda S2000 track day car. I wanted to be able to use those on the R, so I had Adaptec make custom adapters: 15mm thick in front, 25mm thick for the rear. On them I have a set of Hankook RS-3s 255/40-17, a set of Nitto NT01s (same size) and a set of BFG Comp 2 A/S 245/45-17 (my all season go anywhere tires used on the R as a daily driver). I am at stock ride height and none of these tires ever rub.
I have the N5000's on my Classix for my Summer wheels, They are OK, Feel better than the stock Contis on the steelies I use in the winter But not the best in the Wet, If its rainning, I can easily get them to spin.... When they wear, I probably won't buy them again . . . J
Don't get Nexen. I got 2 for my SiLs car and they started to come apart in less than a year, side wall. Looked online and others had the same issue. When I contacted Nexen they did not seem to care.
