Don't know about that particular model, but I've had a set of N6000s in that size for the last 15k miles, and they're a lot better than the no-name ditchfinders the car came with along with being reasonably quiet and sticking to the road well enough - they're better than most tyres I've ever had on a 75.

nexen tyres
Hi Stu I run these on my Lexus GS450h and found them very good for the price I get about 10000 miles from rear ones and 20000 on the front

I've run a set of the N8000's on the ZT-T190. http://www.camskill.co.uk/m61b0s557p..._Noise%3A_74dB
I currently have a set of Goodyear F1 As2's. The Nexen's were comparable performance IMO, and half the price. Can't comment on how long they last mileage wise in comparison, but personally I think the N8000 are superb value for money. They are 90p dearer per tyre though. |

Tyres
Thanks to all, currently have a set of Nexex N8000 on the Apex ZTT and a set of Avon ZZ5 on the ZT Straights, and my spare wheels (Hairpins) have a set of Maxxis
So as mentioned wont have these on all the time, as I constantly am changing wheels on the cars, and appreciate feedback Stu Last edited by Fusilier; 22nd December 2016 at 15:23.. |

Love my N8000, and that's what I'll fit again

Hi Stu,
I just bought a pair of these (V rated not Y) but not yet fitted them - I have a neg camber issue to dial out on NSF (see long post on bent strut!). Normally I have Uniroyal Rainsport 3 all round. At the price I wonder about buying another pair of these so the car is balanced on the same rubber all round if I use them. Seem good at first glance and a decent rim protector built in. Acid test will be sticking them on the car. Jonty |

I was interested in this purely as I need some tyres for the car, so I did a bit of reading and was really impressed with the right-ups!
And what was more surprising is the fact that the Nexen NFera SU1 get a far better review than the 8000's! Has anyone had the Nexen NFera SU1 fitted? Thanks.

You are making me really think about another pair of 'em now! Jonty |
