Review on Nexen N Fera RU1 235/55 R18 100V summer by Kiril Gentschev ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Dissatisfied with this product, bad to use.

attracted by the R17's pricing and its advertised features, including its wear durability and "excellent" hydroplaning resistance resistance. When in use, the hydroplaning performance is good for the first 10,000 km or so, but by the end of the season, after 20,000 km, it already holds puddles poorly and dislikes ruts. Do not expect comfort from this rubber after a studded winter; there is more noise and it is consistent; it sounds like four wheel bearings buzzing briefly but loudly. Only on worn-out, bald tires does the fresh rubber collect all the nearby nails. The tread has 40 tons of kilometers on it after two seasons, but it is completely in cracks as on a Soviet BL-ke. Consumption rose by around 1 liter in comparison to winter, saving only 2.5 atm of pressure, but it's hard on him. The steering wheel is "unpleasant" heavy, and the handling could be described as poor. I do not advise purchasing these tires.
