vs
Tires Nexen or OEM Porsche
Reviews
I have run them for the last 2 winters and they are great. Quiet, good handling and decent traction.
Pros: Quiet, good handling
Cons: Decent traction
OEM Nexen on my Hyundai. Surprisingly great tires. I had always been a Michelin guy, but when the time comes I might get another set of Nexens, especially seeing their price.
Pros: surprisingly great tires
Cons: seeing their price
Vehicle:
Hyundai
I've been running a set for 3+ years now. City driving of 40km daily. Tread is still good and road noise is non existent.
Pros: good tread, no road noise
Nexen is good and reasonably priced.
Pros: good, reasonably priced
I ran nexen Sport R, they’re a tick off pace of the hot 200tw (RE71RS, CRSv2, A052) but they’re super consistent across a 30 minute lapping session and I was getting 5-6 days out of a set.
Pros: super consistent, long lasting
Cons: slightly slower
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Camaro
I recommend Nexen. They are good quality Korean brand. My Kia Cerato has them.
Pros: good quality
Vehicle:
Kia Cerato
BFG is definitely a class above the Nexen. Sure Nexen has never issued a recall but they make very mid car tires imo, underrated truck tires tho and excellent quality control.
Pros: excellent quality control
Cons: very mid car tires
I’ll be honest these came in my brand new 2025 Volkswagen Jetta which I purchased last October and I already need a new set. I have put in a wreck of miles though 18k miles already but I still think they wore way too quick they’re at “4 tread and will need to replace.
Pros: wore way too quick
Cons: wore way too quick
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Mileage: 28968 km
I consider Nexgen tires dangerous with oversteer especially with high center of gravity vehicles. Maybe it's the soft sidewall.
Pros: soft sidewall
Cons: dangerous with oversteer
This one came with Nexen tires that were brand new when I purchased the truck. To be honest, these were the worst tires I have ever owned. Well, I have had a lot of issues in rain where these totally loose traction in the rain going perfectly straight. Didn't matter how fast I was traveling. The final straw was with my wife in light rain and a slightly wet road, turning onto an onramp at about 30mph and the entire rear end started sliding like we were on ice, without me trying to accelerate yet.
Pros: loose traction in rain
Cons: worst tires ever owned
Vehicle:
Toyota Tundra
