vs
Tires Nexen or LANDSAIL
I have other winter tires but THESEEEEEEEEEEEEEE - Day and night difference for specially Win-guards sports 2. Last winter, i was beating everyone on the highway with good amount of snow falling. Even and were slowing down in Boston highway 1-93 as I was on my way to Montreal
Pros: day and night difference
Cons: a bit noisy
From our personal experience and also clients’ feedback we have had much better performance with the Sport R compared to the RT660. Autocross conditions will have the Sport R need a little more warmup, however it does not fall off as much as the RT660 (especially after heat cycles) and yes longevity is much longer on the Sport R. The RT660 also has a tread splicing issue that we really don’t like to see in a performance tire.
Pros: better performance, longer longevity
Cons: needs more warmup
I ran the Sport R on my ES MR2 after V730. The wear was better, better feel all around and probably slightly faster
Pros: better wear, better feel
Vehicle:
Toyota MR2
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.
Pros: held up well
Cons: should be replaced
I've used Nexen from South Korea and found it very decent compared to Chinese ones which can be noisy.
Pros: very decent quality
Cons: 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.
Pros: good quality, great value
Cons: not the "best" tire
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.
Pros: no problems, good performance
Vehicle:
Ford Mustang
I've used Nexen All Seasons and they weren't bad, not the best tires but for the price they were pretty good.
Pros: pretty good for price
Cons: not the best tires
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Camaro
If you are going for less than 40 thickness, dont buy cheap. For example, 235/20/35 nexen is bad, very bad. I had it and went for a check up and found out a bulge growing like a tumor on the inner side of the tire.
Cons: bulge growing like tumor
I got my car from a dealership with Landsail tires on it. Complete garbage
Cons: complete garbage
