vs
Tires Nexen or Tesla
F250 diesel guy here for 35 years in construction. I sold my last truck and moved to the model S. I was so impressed with the S that I bought a Foundation Cyberbeast. I use it like a truck maxing it out with no problems ever. I just finished a loaded 2500 km road trip this week. Range anxiety is a thing of the past. Believe the Tesla estimated range on the screen and charge when it says to. Simple and fun to drive. A sports-car truck. It does more than my diesel and powers my cottage for 5 days to boot. I did pick up a nail but that was easily fixed roadside with a plug and pistol grip inflator.
Pros: Simple and fun to drive
Mileage: 2500 km
I received a quote for four Nexen N’PRIZ GX tires. I’m curious to know if they’re good tires. I’ve been driving around 10,000 km per year in my car. I’m looking for a safe and reliable tire. Does anyone have any experience with Nexen tires?
Pros: safe and reliable
Vehicle:
Kia Soul
Mileage: 10000 km
I got two new tires Friday from Discount Tire, Nexen N Priz AH5. I made an appointment, and after tires, installation, and tire disposal fee it was $268 and I was in and out of there within the hour.
Pros: quick installation
I run these on my R in the winter in 235/40r18. They do fine in midwest winters. Handled about 4-5 inches of snow, some slush, some freezing rain/ice. No complaints from me for the price
Pros: fine in midwest winters
Cons: handled snow and ice
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
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
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
Horrible tires. I have had 2 side wall blow outs with these tires, one on a very busy highway, late at night and almost got unto a horrible accident. Avoid these tires at all cost.
Pros: side wall blow outs
Cons: horrible tires
These tires are absolute junk I would never recommend them to anyone. We have had two blow outs with them and just went today and got four new tires. Never again will I buy these.
Pros: two blow outs
Cons: absolute junk
About 8,000 miles ago, bought a set of their 30,000 mile rated tires. My wife asked me to look at her front tires because they looked "worn out" to which I said "What!" The front tires look like they have gone almost 25,000 worth of wear. She only drives locally and her job is less than a mile away. I've never seen tires wear down so much from so little driving but I guess that's what you get from buying at a Mom and Pop discount place.
Pros: worn out
Cons: worn out quickly
Mileage: 12875 km
