Tires Nexen or Vredestein

I had a set of Nexen Aria A7's on my GMC Terrain, I got 52,000 miles out of them and they gripped just fine and were quiet. For the money they are a good tire. They are a Korean brand, not some fly-by-night Chinese garbage brand.

All are legit, and I would also vouch for Nexen. I put a set of Aria AH7 on my '19 Fusion, and they are quite nice for the price.

I've been really happy with my Vredesteins. They are extremely quiet which is a big plus for me.

A car I bought had fairly new Nexen tires on it. They lasted 75,000 miles, were quiet, and had decent traction in the rain (Florida).

Nexen makes some really good tires... I have used the N5000 Platinum and Plus, and the Roadian HTX and they have been excellent...

Bridgestone Turanza QuietTrack or Serenity, Yokohama Avid Touring-S or GT, Continental TrueContact Tour or PureContact LS, ... But looking at your current tire and the one you're looking at, it looks like you are more budget minded... consider the Nexen N5000 Platinum. I've had those and their predecessor (N5000 Plus) on a few vehicles and were more than impressed with the tire in general for what you pay for it, and noise was always very low.

they are great for cheap yet surprisingly well performing tires, i personally run the quatrac pro on my 94 miata and it performed impressively well in both rain and snow.

I run the "Vredestein Wintrac Pro" on msw 18's on my mk8 golf r and they rip in all conditions, I ran them all last winter and showed little wear, although I did avoid hot days.

I bought them last year and they are alright. I am not a very enthusiastic driver though. They are less sticky than my cooper all season tires on dry roads but brake much better on snow than my all seasons.

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.
