Nexen WINGUARD SPORT 185/65 R15 88 H

I honestly am surprised by this tyre. It was recommended to me by a friend as a good alternative to tyres for about 25-30 quid per tyre. Due to my previous experience I know that each new tyre can except for the extremely cheap Chinese plastic is better than 3-4 years of use, but after all, a tyre worth its money. In snow decently, in a slough also quite good, for driving around the city and sometimes out of the city tyres in itself and honestly do not see the point of buying something more expensive. After driving almost 8k, you cannot see the wear. On dry asphalt it is a very comfortable due to the profile and size, there is a slight feeling of flushing over the asphalt, but the feeling of control remains at a good level, the abs does not respond to stronger braking as it was in the case of Michelin's earlier tyres, good drainage, under-watering , for a compact car with diesel up to 80-90 mph, a tyre just right, and if we like fast and aggressive ride, it's probably better to wait until spring :) The tyres have surprised me enough and probably also for summer Nexen also say, because I'm honest disappointed with the last Bridgestone Potenza.

I am shocked because I read about this company that has turned the USA and Australian markets into demanding markets. I didn’t wanted Chinese tyres and Debica because I already had the Frigo 1 model which was the best winter tyre, beating all the expensive premium brands. Back to the point : Korean tyres - Nexen is a very soft but well-balanced tyre. Fitter was surprised that it easily balanced, he smiled when he realised what car he was mounting them to. He probably thought about driving a BMW, and not getting him on tyres, but I'm doing 1000 km a month and mainly in the city, so why I'm so expensive, and I read reviews on various forums in this BMW and everyone was happy with me too. They are quiet, they are nicely kept wet and dry, they are very good on snow. Actually, I did not notice any flaws or weaknesses of the tyres, my rating is very good for the price and quality of the product. I recommend those who are looking for good tires and for a good price. Read more Collapse

I cannot tell much about durability because I have them for not to long. I do not judge the noise level, because my car is very loud, the appearance also does not bother me because all tyres looks same to me (they are all black). Rolling resistance - cannot see any difference. Pot holes and roads irregularities? How can they suppress anything if tyres size is 215/40? Therefore, I evaluate only the driving characteristics. But these are amazing - I had different tyres - Michelin, Toyo, Falken, Continental, Kleber and many others, but these Nexens are great, comparable to the best. It is good on wet, wet, but it is simply brilliant on the snow. I probably did not have such a good one yet, really. The car is a bit lowered and low profile is not helping at all to drive in the snow, but they still stick perfectly and are predictable. And the price even several times lower. Read more Collapse

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.

I had some concerns buying these tyres, I only knew about them that they have a good reputation in the US and are the first tyres for KIA and HYUNDAI. After the first ride on them I could not believe that winter tyres can be so quiet. Whether this silent work was not the expense of grip on the snow, I waited a little to check it out. As soon as the snow fell, I went to the area where the snow was up to the bumper;) The tyres worked very well. Summarizing:1. Silent driving even at high speeds.2. Very good grip and manoeuvre ability on dry, wet, snowy or slush asphalt. 3. In the field with a thick layer of snow they can do it.4. Surprisingly short and equal stopping distance in all conditions, even at high speeds. Tyre is on the top five, it gives an alternative to the expensive tires of the top manufacturers. I honestly recommend! Read more Collapse
