Tires Nexen or SUMITOMO

Nexen Tires

we have the Nexen Roadian ATX and the older AT Pro RA8, and both of those are excellent all-weather tires and handle rain and snow with no issues.

Pros: excellent all-weather tires
Cons: older model

Excellent all weather tires... A generation newer than the CC2... More balanced overall, so although not quite as good in the snow, the suffer less from road noise and loss of fuel economy.

Pros: more balanced overall
Cons: not best in snow

I just got some Sumitomos replaced with about 40,000 mi on them which probably still had 20 to go and were still gripping great but just a little bit noisy. They are the parents company of Falken. They are a great brand as far as longevity and grip. I'm currently using Laufenn which are a sub brand of Hankook which cost me under $90 a corner and I am so pleased that I'm considering putting them on my second car. This mid-tier brand has been just as if not more pleasant in the realm of noise and on center road feel at speed than Michelin Defenders I had just a month ago on a car we sold. My Laufenns will probably have only half of the tread life of the Michelins I used to have, but at only half the price and the feel on the road is identical but I'm sure the performance is a little bit less. We do have close to bottom tier on a car that is new to us which is a Douglas brand and it'll be good for the next year but it is an unpleasant tire. It's loud and doesn't feel like it tracks well. But it does grip well enough to push the replacement date out a year since they were manufactured this year.

Pros: great longevity, good grip, quiet, good road feel
Cons: noisy (Sumitomo), loud (Douglas), poor tracking (Douglas), shorter tread life (Laufenn)
Mileage: 40000 km

Nexen Tires

Got an installed deal on Nexen Roadian ATX. I wanted an aggressive looking but functional tire, and these are three peak rated. Very happy a year or so in. $860 installed (BJ's).

Pros: aggressive looking, functional tire

Nexen Tires

We have ran the Nexen Winspike and Nexen Winguard series winter tires on a few vehicles in Dakota winters, which can be extremely harsh... Saying they are "comparable quality" to Hakka's is a stretch... but they are decent winter tires and Nexen has one of the best warranties in the tire industry.

Pros: decent winter tires
Cons: not comparable to Hakka's

I got Nexen N5000 225 60 r18. It's slippery on wet surface (I can feel it especially on solid paint lines in the middle of the road) Got it 2 years now, and will never buy nexen again.

Pros: slippery on wet surface
Cons: slippery on wet surface
