vs
Tires Nexen or WEST LAKE
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
Mag 5 years na westlake na gulong ko. Wala naman naging issue.
Pros: no issues
Okay naman ang Westlake sa experience ko. Mapa city driving or long drive. This is perfect for my budget and usage. Di naman ako daily drive so I opted to buy Westlake tires para makatipid na din.
The only weird na nanotice ko is parang ang ingay na gulong pagdinadaan sa baha.
Pros: perfect for budget, good usage
Cons: noisy on floods
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
My dad currently has Westlake tires on his truck and they're not noisy at all. They do have less grip however and you have to be careful on wet roads.
Pros: not noisy
Cons: less grip
Had one of mine pop on the way to my new job on the other side of the country- only 5k on some N’priz AH8s (70k warranty) replaced back in October.
Cons: dealer paperwork difficult
Mileage: 5000 km
I have nexen tires on my ram truck I have had two almost brand new tires bulge apart on that truck. They are in fact junk tires.
Pros: bulge apart
Cons: junk tires
