Tires Nexen or OEM Subaru
Reviews
Nope, you don't need to change all four. I had a similar problem on my Subaru Legacy years ago, and I simply bought one new tire and then took it to a local race shop and had them shave the new tire to the same depths of the old one.
Vehicle:
Subaru Legacy
I ran them on my 850 volvo for a while. Seemed to wear well and I had no issues.
Pros: wear well, no issues
Vehicle:
Volvo 850
These are rare, look great and are durable. The tires only have about 5k miles on them and show minimal tire wear.
Pros: rare, look great, durable
Cons: minimal tire wear
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 8046 km
btw, i run nexen n3000 tires and love them.
Pros: love them
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Phaeton
Mileage: 103000 km
Too late, I already got them installed and went with the Nexens. So far so good. Very smooth ride and no noise whatsoever!
Pros: very smooth ride, no noise
Kumho tires and Nexen tires are 2 chinese brands I highly recommend. I have both on my vehicles. Kumho on my car,Nexen on my truck.
Pros: highly recommended
i like the nexen 195 45s thats what i have on my car and there wear rating is awesome. and they grip nicely once you get them warmed up. ive seen the toyos wear out very quick.
Pros: awesome wear rating, nice grip
Cons: Toyos wear out quick
Good for the money.. they are indeed 'budget tires'.. Perform decently on dry.. but wet traction is not all that good and I thought they wore fast.. like 30k miles.. rotated them every 5k..
Pros: decent dry performance
Cons: poor wet traction
Mileage: 48280 km
These tires have 17k miles on them in the city and are completely useless now. It feels like I am driving in my Jeep offroad. The car literally pitches and rolls at low speeds; at highway speeds it vibrates badly.
Cons: useless, terrible vibration
Vehicle:
Kia Optima
Mileage: 27359 km
Don't get Nexen. I got 2 for my SiLs car and they started to come apart in less than a year, side wall. Looked online and others had the same issue. When I contacted Nexen they did not seem to care.
Pros: null
Cons: come apart, poor quality
