Tires Nexen or Laufenn

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.

Nexen winter guard sport.

"LAUFENN S Fit AS" is my favorite for my M3. This is a subsidiary of Hancook.

I have a set of them. I have no complaints with them. They ride smoothly and are not noisy. A great tire for daily driving and in the rain. For the price, they are a nice tire.

Since I can't get Michelins in the sizes I run anymore, I've switched to Laufenn (by Hancook). It's German for "runner", they are inexpensive and initial performance is excellent.

I have the N5000's on my Classix for my Summer wheels, They are OK, Feel better than the stock Contis on the steelies I use in the winter But not the best in the Wet, If its rainning, I can easily get them to spin.... When they wear, I probably won't buy them again . . . J

Nexen is shit. Hyundai kia use them as their stock tires and they are absolute dogshit. Honestly 90% of their reputation for poor ride and handling. I popped one on a pothole. 3 mm sidewall thickness.

They will work good in the winter on ice and snow but they will suffer on dry conditions and the highway. I find that once you are driving over 50 mph (80km) they turn very unstable and very floaty. Also, they will be loud and cornering on dry pavement is pretty bad.
