Looked up reviews online. A lot of other forums seem to like them.

Let us know what you think man.

yea what speed rating are they...

I say do it..

cause if your not using your car to the full potential why not buy reasonable tires!

why have max performance tires if your using your car to commute

folks on here are retarded when it comes to being real....

if your not tracking your car do it, $350 tires well do no harm

Lots of gap, and potential VDC,TCS,ABS problems. Front tires mounted on the rear FTL.


275/30-19 is a front tires size, you need 275/35-19

The price is right. If you can get 20,000 miles it is a good $value. Be reasonable about performance expectations. Use common sense in the rain.

I bought Nexen's on my last car and they were great for the price I paid, I think the wear was slightly higher than the tires I had before them but I would have no problem buying them again.

My mechanic is a drifter. He says he gets 50% more life out of these than any tire he has used.


He said a set of 18" in staggered Z front/rear sizes are under 400.

I used them quite a bit with my old stockers. They're fine. Good treadwear. Not the best in wet weather, so just exercise a bit of caution.
