Nexen n8000, n9000

[vr2turbo]

His car must have bad alignment, toe kill tire. I got 1-1.5 camber but still wear is minimum. Will update with foto when i back with the car.

Maybe, and maybe fast driver too, because his is an S60R....

Foto up... first two is front, other is rear. Front hav more wear bcos of hard braking, but still is minimum about 1mm.

just some comments..
i have put on N8000 on my fronts (215/50/17) since 21/12/12.
now travelled more than 4K km, gone thru torrential rain, standing water, banjir, fast dry/damp kampung road, highway..
i should say they perform good..
quiet, very good aquaplaning ability and wet grip.. on dry its more than average..
very very happy with the performance/price..
will buy again. hehe..

Bro, how much did u pay for this size eh?

my tyres looks the same.
maybe coz u are on AWD it wears evenly.
hopefully my Nexen lasts me 30K km

i got it for rm340/pc at YL Auto Putra Heights.
they were having a promotion/clearance for this size.

hi, since this thread is discussing abt nexen tires. What abt N1000? anyone used this before??

 

[infinity.melvin]

Been using nexen n8000 for about 20k++ km now. Good all round tyres. My thread still looks 90% wonder why they say poor thread wear life. Seems good to me compare to my previous kumho ku31 threadwear pretty low.

Only concern is that the sidewall is pretty soft. My sidewall got scars and small cuts but luckily not deep. Just exterior part.

Nxt tyre change gonna try n9000. Thread design looks cool. Sidewall seems harder by pressing it vs n8000 soft sidewall

N1000 should be the lower range

N9000 shoulder pattern looks a bit like Dunlop FM901, which are pretty noisy tyres....

 

[Voodoodoll]

Been using n7000 for 2 mths now. Reasonable price and good grip on wet and dry. This date tyre still looks new. Will try n9000 after this.

 

[gavinx]

been using n1000 for more than 1 month now. good grip at cornering (dry & wet), stopping ( Dry and wet). anti aquaplanning is good, Lower noise compare to previous used falken 912. Im not really sure n1000 is the lower range for the nexen N-series. its a directional UHP tires and the performance is far better than my expectation.

Usually is from smaller to larger number, lower to higher performer.
Anyway, all Nexen tyres from 1000 to 9000 are directional except N8000. N3000 my friend used before not too good.
N6000 some use, and is acceptable depending on what you want out of it.
N8000 more to performance.

I check US website N1000 also not there anymore. Even though N6000 and N8000 both under Ultra High Performance users here mention N8000 better performance.
In US web N9000 under Max category, so should be their top tyres in performance

Just curious, what are the choices for Nexen in 195/55R15 sizing? Seems like there's no N8000/N9000 in this size.
