Tires Nexen or Giti

Picked up some Nexen Roadian GTXs that have served beautifully for about a year and a half and 24k miles. I’m a strong believer in middle of the pack tires. If you are going to go top notch, it’s Michelin or bust. Other than that, choose a decent tire for a middle of the road price.

I've had both Sailun and Nexen (2010 Audi A4 Avant) and had no issues, even with Autobahn driving.

Nexen vote for me. They've held up pretty well here in MA.

Nexen, depending on the model (avoid the CPxxx models otherwise excellent tires) are great tires and would be a lateral move from the RT43...

I love my nexen nprix 8. Going to get another set soon.

I have been a big fan of Nexen tires for some time... Sent two kids to college on them in the Dakotas where conditions can be less than ideal. And we have used their winter tires, performance tires, and truck tires as well and I can say I don't really have any negatives to say for the price... They are solid, budget tires in the same league as Cooper, General, Falken, and Yokohama... They are not Michelins or Bridgestones, but they don't try to be either.

Nexen winguard sport 2 have been just fine for me.

I have the Giti's on my R-Line, and they are....barely adequate. I doubt I will wait long to replace them since I do a good bit of highway driving. They are noisy, so I will at least give them a few thousand miles to see how they wear and sound.

Back in Dec 2022 I bought a new set of Giti E1 tires from a reseller and got them installed with alignment. The tires felt slippery in the wet even after 3 months of usage. I could feel the rear of the car sliding out even when doing 30-40km/h on a wet right bend.

I had Nexen tires put on for the first time a couple years ago and had 2 punctures within a week of each other last year and just today one completely blew out. They were cheap but I probably wouldn't buy them again.
