Tires Nexen or Firestone

Therefore Firestone builds a tire that doesn't require tire blankets to have a safe level of performance.

A set of studded Firestone winterforce..

7 seasons and still great.

I've driven about 200 miles on my new Weatherpeaks on my stock Subaru Outback. I was shocked with how good the tires performed in the downpour. On very wet roads with massive puddles, the Weatherpeaks felt like my old tires did on completely dry roads. Grip was fantastic. No slipping at all. Even when I hit really large puddles at speed I didn't hydroplane. The tires do feel slightly "softer" in the turns when its dry than the stock tires but they still feel great...and are a much smoother and quieter ride overall. Even on dry roads I feel like the car has better control.

Notably less road noise than the fire Stones I had before and pretty good grip. I'm happy with them.

I ran the original SUR4, enjoyed it but shoulder came apart in 16 runs on my HS car. Tried the Sport R on my ES car this year and enjoyed it. Only other tire I've had on it was the V730, and the Nexen was a little better all around.

I’m running 225/45/18 Nexen Winguard Sport 2 Winters with 18x8 NS1502

I have 225/40/19 nexen winguard sport 2 on my stock wheels.

Versatility is not a benefit if the rain tire or dry tire is suitable in the conditions, because they could just run that tire.

Same story. Popped three in the last month, potholes are awful here on Long Island, and my Arteon is paying the price.

If you are going for less than 40 thickness, dont buy cheap. For example, 235/20/35 nexen is bad, very bad. I had it and went for a check up and found out a bulge growing like a tumor on the inner side of the tire.
