Tires Nexen or YOKOHAMA
Those Nexen N5000+ are great but older models (been on the market for 10 or so years), they started phasing them out several years ago with only a few sizes remaining, and were largely replaced by the N5000 Platinum
Vouch for Nexen, using their summer performance tires and got a tire blew recently due to a pothole on highway , they approved my road hazard claim quick and sending me reimbursement for my tire. Satisfied and getting another for sure
the fleva v701 is a much better tire but even then there are still better options
I had yokomaha parade spec 2's on a couple of cars and loved them, grip for days and decent in the wet, my favourite tyre ever
I've had the At3s on my '24 OBW for almost 6000 and they are great. Ride just like the stock Yokohama Geolander. Gas mileage didn't suffer, and they are great off road.
Just thought I’d share some initial impressions.
Car Details: 2020 Model 3 RWD
Original Tires: Michelin Primacy
Miles of original tires: 58,300
New Tires: Nexen N’Blue 4S2
Miles on new tires: 100-200
Road Noise
Nexen (N): quiet. I mean nothing at slow speeds and very light at hwy speeds.
Efficiency
N: Still early days, but all miles in the rain and with gusts from the recent hurricane (it’s not nearly hurricane force winds). Mainly highway this far and was around 250-260kwh.
Ride Quality
N: shockingly noticeable job absorbing bumps. Not like a new suspension, but takes the cringe out of small potholes and bumps.
Nexen is amazing.....I drove above 200kph many times without any issues.
I ran two sets of nexen su1 across 80kkm on a 10 yo + Subaru legacy 3.0r a few years ago.
They were fine. Good grip in the wet. Only grumble I had was they were a bit noisy
I had 3 of my 4 Nexen tires give out on my new Volkswagen under 20k. Don't recommend
Geotour HTs. Hate em.
