vs
Tires Nexen or OEM Toyota
Reviews
I put Nexen Roadian AT Pro RA8 on instead (they were on sale and had white letter sidewalls, I am old school) and honestly I haven't regretted it at all... I do some off-roading and deal with pretty severe winters and snow and the Nexens have been very good in those conditions and I have put a fair amount of interstate highway miles on them and they run nice and quiet.
Pros: nice and quiet, very good
I went with the Nexens and have been very pleased.
Pros: very pleased
Nexen like all brands make different levels of tires. If you decide to buy the cheap ones your results will be indeed be bad. I bought a nicer tire that they make and have had no issues with them. It's actually the best ride quality I've had in my car. They drive better than Dunlop and Pirrelli P-Zero I had in the past.
Pros: best ride quality
Cons: cheap ones bad
If you mean the Nexen N Priz AH7 and not the Aria AH7, I have the N Priz AH7's on my 2019 Kia Sportage AWD which came on the vehicle and I have had no road noise. They've been really good tires actually for me and handle really well.
Pros: good tires, handle well
Cons: 5/32nds at 38k miles
Vehicle:
Kia Sportage
Mileage: 38000 km
Nexen WinGuards are some good, budget dedicated winter tires... they perform better than they should for the price...
Pros: good budget winter tires
Cons: price vs all-weather
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 bought them last year and they are alright. I am not a very enthusiastic driver though. They are less sticky than my cooper all season tires on dry roads but brake much better on snow than my all seasons.
Pros: brake better on snow
Cons: less sticky on dry
Vehicle:
Audi A4
I had Nexen tires put on for the first time a couple years ago and had 2 punctures within a week of each other last year and just today one completely blew out. They were cheap but I probably wouldn't buy them again.
Pros: completely blew out
Cons: 2 punctures, blew out
I had 3 of my 4 Nexen tires give out on my new Volkswagen under 20k. Don't recommend
Pros: give out
Cons: give out
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 32187 km
