Tires Nexen or Uniroyal

The all season Uniroyal Tiger Paw tires that came on the Kona N are surprisingly good tires. Definitely a budget brand with good owner reviews.

You can look into Nexen. Korean brand. Not as cheap as the Chinese brands but not as expensive as the known brands. I fitted these on my Tiguan last year. Take my anecdotal experience with a grain of salt, but the ride felt quieter with the Nexens vs the Bridgestones it had on before.

If you have the 15" stock wheels, check out nexen npriz AH5. I got some off Amazon for my 65 riviera when I was stock height.

I have them on my car, bought them in 2023 and living in the northeast, they've gone through two winters, hot ass summers and rain and they've done the job and still have a ton of tread on them. With so much insane weather here, I was worried about maybe some traction problems in the snow and rain. Haven't had any at all. YMMV but they've been better "for me" than some higher priced, higher rated tires I wasted money on in the past. I can't speak on everything the company sells, but my specific ones are the Nexen CP671s.

They are a decent midrange tire. Absolutely a good choice if your budget is limited.

Yes uniroyal makes a damn good tire. They are decent on the wallet. And deliver on their promises.

I put a new set of Uniroyal Rainsport 5's on my car in 2023, then drove 2100 miles to Germany and back over a 2 week period, including maxing out my car to 131mph and they are still on the car now after about 18k miles on them. They still have around 2 years of life in them.

I had no problems with my set but they seem to have worn down pretty quick after ~20k miles.

I, myself, have never been able to get a Uniroyal to hold air. Pump it up to 35psi with the air compressor...two days later it's at 20psi.

Uniroyal in my opinion is a lower grade in tire in general, they are not what they used to be... I have PowerPaws on my Corvette right now, and they are coming off in the spring.
