Review on Nexen N Fera RU1 225/60 R17 99 year old by Anna HR Szegedi ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Bad! I am not satisfied with the quality of the product.

I was drawn to the R17 because of its low price and advertised features, which included "excellent" resistance to hydroplaning and resilience to wear. Hydroplaning is good for the first 10,000 kilometers driven on a new vehicle, but by the end of the season, at 20,000 kilometers, the vehicle already holds puddles badly and does not like a rut. Expect more noise and it will be persistent with this rubber after a studded winter; it sounds like all four wheel bearings have buzzed at once (not a lot, but enough to be annoying). Only old, bald tires accumulate nails, but the new ones have them all. The tread is still big after two seasons and 40 thousand kilometers, but it's all cracked up like a Soviet BL-ke. An increase in intake of roughly 1! liter compared to winter results in a pressure savings of only 2.5 atm, but it is still taxing on him. The steering wheel is "unpleasant" heavy, and the handling is negative. These tires are not something you should invest in.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Noise, portability, and a penchant for "spies" are all negative aspects.
