Great tires for great price will be using again
getting me through Ohio winter pretty smoothly in my Dodge charger scat pack
Definitely a good budget friendly snow tire.
Lost 2 mpg after putting these on but the traction in snow is worth it
Definitely a good budget friendly snow tire.
Lost 2 mpg after installing but the traction is worth it on snow
Overall a really top tier tire
So far they are great. Have not been in snow yet.
Amazing upgrade!
Bought these for my 22 VW GTI. I have the Autobahn with the 18" wheels and Bridgestone Potenza S005 Ultra High Performance Summer tires. We got our first snow in Michigan (maybe an inch or two) and I had absolutely zero control with the summer tires. I went to a meeting a few blocks away and wasn't sure I would make it back home. I ordered these Nexen's and it's a NIGHT AND DAY difference! We got an even bigger snowfall recently and I had total control, little or no slipping, I even went through a figure 8 of two roundabouts next to each other and was not able to break the rear tires loose. Very impressed with these Nexen tires - I've never heard of the brand before this - and even more impressed that these tires are far, far quieter than my summer tires. I didn't realize how much road noise I had with the summer tires until I put these Nexens on. It's going to be hard going back to the summer tires next year... may just end up buying a set of Nexen UHP summer tires too!
Good tire with an excellent price.
I ended up doing a research about these tires after found them on this site. I remembered that a lot of the newer models of Hyundai came with this brand from the factory. I drive now a WRX and in some of the groups people recommend these tires. I live in the PNW, rain is almost daily and these tires are amazing with water and cold weather. Way more comfortable than the summer tires that came with the car. Definitely was a good choice for my needs.
Good value for a solid tire
After about a month of window shopping, I bought these Nexens. I've had some more costly brands of winter tires before (on the same vehicle platform), and so far these have surpassed the others overall, in my opinion. Pretty comfy ride without too much give in corners. Grip is good on wet pavement that I've experienced. Haven't had deep snow, grabs hard packed stuff well though. Very pleased with these mid-level winter tires!

Perfect for BMW'S! Don't overspend on Blizzaks!
F10 550i xDrive Owner here. The Nexens are a really solid choice in the winter. It's almost impossible to get stuck with these things & they're more a more comfortable ride than the Blizzaks. Tread noise is a little more quiet than other brands I've tried in the past. Definitely can't go wrong if you get these!
Get technical:
Nexen's Winguard Sport 2 is a studless winter tire that's designed for use on performance-oriented cars and offers drivers excellent traction and performance in icy and snowy weather.
Features & Benefits
- Winter tread design
- Black sidewall
- Three Peak Mountain Snowflake symbol means this tire is certified to perform in severe snow conditions
- Backed by Nexen's Total Coverage Warranty, which includes 36 Months of Roadside Assistance
- Built with an innovative sipe design for better grip on icy and snowy roads
Winter weather often brings ice, slush, and snow with it, and these unforgiving conditions can make driving more difficult than it needs to be. Fortunately, winter tires are built to give drivers constant traction and performance in these conditions, and the Winguard Sport 2 from Nexen does that and more for drivers of performance-oriented passenger cars. Multiple sipes enhance grip for better braking performance on icy and snowy roads by creating additional biting edges, while large, wide grooves within the tread of the Winguard Sport 2 funnel water, slush, and snow away from the tire to reduce the risk of hydroplaning. The Winguard Sport 2 is built with durable materials for a longer tread life, and also features a directional tread pattern that improves traction and cornering on dry and snowy roads.
