Nexen WINGUARD SPORT is totally efficient for street/city driving. It behaves very good either on dry or wet road surface. the only drawback is that the temp is above 5C the tread is melting. Nexen WINGUARD SPORT is a good winter tyre.

Hi, I have been checking tyre offers for a long time and I have decided to trust users from an online forums and to purchase Nexen tyres. Winters are quite warm but on the dry asphalt they are very good at wet also now I got a ride on the snow no problem with starting very well brakes on the snow without losing grip. The tyres are fitted to Megane with 2.0 16v engine and it was is a purchase worth recommending for sure this year I will buy again 2 pcs. To have a full set. If someone is looking for good tyres for the amount 60 quid I recommend very good quality mixture and really very quiet tyres I was really happy after leaving the fitter because I was afraid of high winter and winter for sure it will be loud, and here a nice surprise has been done for 1 k and I cannot say the wrong opinion.

Nexen Winguard Sport were bought a year ago and from the first moment I saw them I was yearning to test them. I just want to emphasise that I’m a demanding driver who sees safety as the prime aspect since I’m not only a driver but also a husband and a father. First result was A pleasant surprise: braking distance at 60mphs was 40m. Especially that the road was wet. Concerning noise, it is barely hear able. Korean manufacturer set a limit of 73db but imo Nexen Winguard Sport is way more silent even than my summer tyres in the same size. In total: I recommend Nexen Winguard Sport in 100% and summer tyres as well. Price to prize – a good choice.

Wasn't expecting miracles from a cheaper brand of tyre than I usually put on my vehicle but I was shocked at how good these actually are. Much more cornering confidence and a low road noise makes for an all round good tyre. They do throw the road dirt onto the paint alot more than normal summer tyred but it doesn't matter when your interested in safety for having 2 under 3 year old in the car.

These are the first tyres made by Korean manufacturer. Previously, I used several different brands, mainly premium and med range. The tyre was recommended to me by a friend who has used summer and winter Nexen tyres for several years. I am positively surprised with the quality of these tyres. No problems with balancing, and the look is nice too. Maybe more noisy than premium class tyres, but at the level of medium brands. Excellent behaviour on wet and snow. Half the price of Continental is a huge price difference for me. And it does not stand out in quality. I recommend, I think over the set for the summer

Removed the summer tyers as this 160 BHP Abarth 500 was not doing well in the cold weather at all :-( And fitted 4 Nexen Wingurd Sports 205 / 40 R17 and the car is so much better :-) on wet cold roads you can pull away with out the wheels spinning up, in the ice and snow its now a dream to drive :-) in the dry its also very good lots of grip :-) they are very low on noise, :-) lower than the summer run flats , and a very good price :-)

I use summer Nexen tyres and it turned out that they are quite decent. I decided to try them for winter as well. It turned out to be really good tyres. They did really well in snow, slush and wet conditions. With the loss of grip it is like: if you have a powerful car and accelerate from the start, until the system works, each one slightly skid. But what is the point? When i was accelerating normally none of the light even flashed on the dash board. Braking also at a good level. ABS system is the last think you feel. Generally I am a steady driver. On the motorways it was also ok. Outside of the city, they gave me a confident feeling on snow and wet roads. For such money, half of the previous price I do not see the difference (previous Pirelli SottoZero) so as in this ad ..... Do not be afraid of choosing them. In my car they worked well.

What can I say - tire equals a lot more expensive models, you can go ahead and assume no complexes.

I have no idea why these tires are so cheap .. I had a different brand tires and Nexeny properties do not differ from those most familiar. I like them and if they continue to perform so I'll buy again.
