getting me through Ohio winter pretty smoothly in my Dodge charger scat pack

Lost 2 mpg after putting these on but the traction in snow is worth it

Lost 2 mpg after installing but the traction is worth it on snow

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!

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.

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!
