These tyres have a very good reputation in the United States, as I read that the Nexen Winterguard tyres were the original equipment makers for brands KIA and Hyundai. So I thought “Why not” and went ahead and ordered them from Oponeo. When I had them fitted, I couldn’t believe how calm they were to drive on winter roads. They performed splendidly, and importantly didn’t clog up with snow, like other tyres I have used. Even when the snow was up-to my bumper, the tyres performed very well. In Summary, what I like about these tyres are: 1 Quiet running, even at high speeds. 2 Very good traction and handling on dry slush, wet and snowy roads. 3 Snow and slush quickly removed from the tyre. 4 Surprisingly short, and equal braking in all conditions, even at high speeds. 5. Great value for money – They provide an alternative to expensive tyres from the large manufacturers. I highly recommend them!

I purchased the Nexen Winterguard tyres, after reading lots of positive reviews on the internet about them. I want to emphasize that I am the most demanding drive,r and place the utmost importance to safety because that, besides being a pilot, I'm still a father and husband. After the first test, I was immediately pleasantly surprised how I could drive at 60mph and brake and stop extremely quickly. They are an extremely quiet tyre and when it comes to grip and wear, they exceeded my expectations, markedly. In summary, I would 100% recommend this tyre and the Nexen, tyre company. They provide extremely good value for money, are any discerning motorist should buy them for winter driving

Hello everyone, I had a similar dilemma when I was choosing tyres: What Price or Quality (the brand) should I buy? I didn’t have long to make this decision as the winter was nearly upon me, so I had to act fast. I eventually decided on the Nexen Winterguard tyres. I do not regret this choice at all. They are a solid tyre, which drive particularly well on slushy roads. The balance is great, and I feel they compare very favourably to more expensive brands too. They provide an excellent grip, even at high speeds (60mph+) on slushy roads. They are surprisingly quiet, and give great traction, especially when cornering. I have driven on a variety of roads (Mountain, Urban, Off-road) and they perform very well, and there has been no problems at all. The drainage of the tyre is good, and I would recommend the Nexen Winterguard tyres to any driver looking for a high-spec, low cost winter tyre.

Very good winter tires at a reasonable price, they work well in the snow and on muddy roads during thaw, a little worse on glaciated packed snow, but only tires with spikes cope with such a surface.

Quality super, price low - dry high temperature become soft and fly around, but does not work well during winter conditions. Snow peaks or unhidden mud certainly wins with Nexen tyres.

Great tyre for normal use, before them I used twice as expensive and did not notice the difference. What is more I do not run slowly ;)

I normally drive in the country and have used these tyres in all conditions, and can not say a bad word on them .From dry, mud, ice, hail and snow, they are great. I have done about 12 000 miles and there is still a reasonable tread on the front. I recommend it to anyone, not need to buy something else.
