vs
Tires Nexen or GISLAVED
the Nexen is a grand touring tire that emphasizes driveability but sacrifices a little mpg to do it.
Pros: emphasizes driveability
Cons: sacrifices mpg
I have the Nexens on mine and they’ve been fine through 16k miles.
Pros: been fine
Mileage: 16000 km
I loved the sur4g from nexxen. I would do a lil burnout when I left my drive way. Warm enough.
Pros: warm enough
Drove our car with Nexens on and it's a surprisingly quiet tire vs the Bridgestones it had on previously.
Pros: surprisingly quiet tire
Update: got the Nexens and so far notice 0 road noise on highway or in town, both absolutely quiet.
Pros: absolutely quiet, zero road noise
The Nexens without a second thought... Those N'Fera SU1 tires are excellent tires and Nexen has arguably the best warranty in the tire industry.
Pros: excellent tires, best warranty
I’ve owned a lot of VWs, and this is the only one that has not consumed any oil from the very beginning. I’ve actually joked that I’m concerned about that. I kept my previous 2016 GTI until I bought this car last year - 212K miles and it consumed about a quart and a half between 5K interval changes, ever since new. In fact all of my VWs have consumed something since new and that amount never really changed, so I do believe it is most likely build tolerances and luck of the draw. That said, I wouldn’t hesitate to drive a car that consumed a reasonable amount these days and I consider that normal. Build quality has been better than I expected for a car in this price range. Comfort is very good, but it’s not what I would call sporty in any way (coming from a GTI). some people complain about the lag on acceleration but I believe that is the transmission programming and there are ways you can drive it that minimize that. I think the Nexen tires are decent enough and they seem to wearing well.
Pros: no oil consumption, decent wear
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Mileage: 30000 km
I currently have a set of nexen hp 265/35/r22 102v on my truck and 2 of the tires are splitting in the sidewalls..but I've had them almost 7 years and the tread still holding strong. Smooth ride its just the two with sidewall splitting
Pros: smooth ride, tread strong
Cons: splitting in sidewalls
The nexen tires DO suck.
Cons: poor performance
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
3 unreparable flats in 1 winter (1 month and a half). I repeat: 3 FLATS!!!!!!
Pros: 3 flats in winter
Cons: 3 unreparable flats
