Tires Nexen or Firestone
I just put a set of nexen all weathers on they werent too pricey and theyre pretty good in the snow
I put on Firestone destination at 2s in 235/65 r17. They are only 4lbs more than stock and perform great!
Different car now but I have Nexen NBlue 4Season 2 on my 2012 xB. South Pass, WY was covered in snow last night and I couldn't for the life of me get those tires to slip.
I see you already got some tires but for future reference the Firestone fire hawk indy500 is one of the best bang for buck tires out there. It’s been a couple years since I got mine but I think they were around $160 a tire and they WAY outperform the nitto nt555 that costs significantly more. I bought them as a cheap set of tires for the wet weather not expecting anything special and they surprised the hell out of me. I will recommend them to everyone that asks because they’re just that good (for a tire at that price range).
I have Indy 500s on my ND banger tire for the price AND you can drive them in the rain.
While not a 200tw tire the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 (340tw) not only costs significantly less but I've ran them with excellent grip on my WRX.
The original Winter Force tires are streets ahead of the Winter Force 2.
I have no experience with this specific tire but I do know that a lot of Nexen tires I've seen previously wear rather fast.
1990s Ford Explorer were pretty solid except for the pesky factory installed Firestone tires that would blow out at speed.
They're Nexen. Had an inspection done this year and found out they're already down to 2mm, and I noticed recently they all have shallow, small cracks all over the edges. I put about 47,000 km on them over the last 28 months. They're almost 3 years old, how are they already in such shit condition? I'm getting winter tires next week but do I really need to replace my all seasons so soon? How are they cracking already?
