here in MN were we rally-x in fields, clay, and grass....I use 185/60/14 winterforces....I run intertubes in the fronts to avoid debeading.
On our prescribed sighting-lap line, the Optima's chassis proved compliant while the standard high performance dampers (fundamental design shared with the Sorento's dual flow dampers) and suspension tuning found a good compromise between a relaxed ride and more aggressive roadholding. Off the driving line, the stock Nexen touring tires didn't enjoy steering corrections at speed, and predictably squealed in protest.
C5 RS6 wheel painted flat black with brand new Nexen 3000 tire 19x8 et 30 best offer UUC weight shift knob, silver (6spd) nice and heavy I can include a threaded OEM shifter for free
We choose to wrap the wheels in Nexen N3000 235/35/19. To be honest they were the cheapest Tires I could find. Another review will come after Jen racks a couple of miles on them.
I bought Nexen tires for my MK4 (which is for sale BTW ) and I love them. They are great all around tires. I plan on buying them for my mk5
I had the Nexen N3000's for about 23,000 and they were pretty great tires. They were the best tire I've ever had in the wet, decently quiet, balanced well and wore like rocks. If you are looking for good tread life and cheap price then these are great. If you need something sticky, these won't do... I hardly ever drive hard but when I did I found the limits easily. I bought 4 225/40-18's at 67 bucks a piece and sold them 23,000 miles later for 100 bucks and the guy was floored b/c it looked like I never drove on them.
i have run winterforce tires (firestones budget snow tires) with great success on my 2004 Sonata car is useless without em
When i bought my GTI 1.8T it came with the Nexen n3000 and personally i liked them the road handling was quite good and they seem to handle well in the wet also. The tread lasted me quite long and id say for about 14000 miles and they still had 6-7/32 tread left when i sold them. Honestly i am thinking of buying them again!
I put on the nexens yesterday and they seem to handle well. There is hardly any road noise on the highway and for the price i can't complain.........
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.
