vs
Tires OEM Mazda or Nexen
if you can, stick to the Nexens - best price to quality ratio I've used thus far. :) Great Korean company.
Pros: best price to quality
For the Nexen, I had a set of Nexen Roadian AT tires and they worked well for me.
Pros: worked well
Great SUV/CUV tire if you don't deal with snow... And Nexen has arguably the best warranty in the tire industry that includes a 2 year road hazard warranty from the manufacturer.
Pros: great warranty, good tire
Cons: not for snow
Apart from FB Marketplace, Nexens are quite good. I have a set of Nexen Winguard Sport 2s on my WRX and so far so good.
Pros: quite good
Vehicle:
Subaru
I just put a set of nexen all weathers on they werent too pricey and theyre pretty good in the snow
Pros: pretty good in snow
Cons: werent too pricey
24 sport 6mt with the stock nfera au7. It does fine, but the tires definitely leave a lot to be desired in the snow. I dont feel unsafe, but im not totally confident in the tires either.
Pros: does fine
Cons: not totally confident
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Nexen negyévszakosom van, tegnap lemértem, letaposott havon, 50-ről nullára 10m a fekut. Nem tudom hogy ez jó vagy rossz, de ennyit tudom hogy hagynom kell magam előtt mindig.
Cons: hosszú fékút havon
The tire size on the vehicle is not common and I’m seeing prices of $300+ per tire, more expensive than my F-150.
Cons: expensive tire prices
Vehicle:
Mazda
As others have said, bulging is a sign that the internal structure of the tyre has failed. As frustrating as this is, it's new tyre time.
Cons: internal structure failed
Vehicle:
Mazda 6
Those are the wrong wheels and it's got some bullshit Nexen tires on it.
Cons: wrong wheels, bullshit tires
