Review on Nexen N "FERA SU1 205/55 R16 94W summer by Adam Woods ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The right product for me, there were no problems.

Tires of the first complete set (that is, they are installed from the factory) on Kia Optima. I have: 225/45 R18 95V (there is also with the Y index - but this is not a review about them, but about V). Departure for them 2 summer seasons (mileage on these tires is approximately 40 thousand km). Quiet enough (depending on what to compare, but it doesn’t buzz, only a slight rustle when you drive on asphalt with pebbles, and when on a freshly laid one - complete silence), soft rubber. Rutting is not felt, good grip in the rain (but when it gets into a puddle at speed, of course, it pops up), on dry asphalt, too, no complaints. It doesn’t row on wet grass and on the ground, so keep it in mind when you turn off the asphalt onto a country road. Since I changed the wheels every year (front-back), my wear is even, but it almost reached the limiters. I will put on the third season, but it will be the last. Tires have a protective side for the disc, which, firstly, looks beautiful, and secondly, protects the disc from lapping on the curb. There are no bumps or hernias on them, I pierced it once with a self-tapping screw. I have a lot of track mileage on it, including to Europe, but I am very pleased with the tires. When these run out, I will buy exactly the same. The price for my size is now on aliexpress - 6500 / piece, which is much cheaper than for premium brands. But, chesslovo, the tire is great!

Pros
  • Fairly quiet, soft, good grip in the rain and on dry pavement.
Cons
  • Wears out fairly quickly.
