Just change my stock Nexen CP643A tyre at Quick Save which i use since Dec 2013. The mileage is about 29K (tyre not totally botak, can go few thousand miles more but better safe than sorry). I choose Nexen N8000 because of the good reviews. The thing is three of the tyre given is dated year 2013 (week 20) while one is year 2015. I covered 29K in about 2 years 4 months. So by my rough calculation, i estimated this tyre might last me at least 3 to 3½ years. So by then the tyre will be 6½ years old. Is that dangerous? They gave 5 years warranty. It will be troublesome to always change only three tyre and next is only one tyre. Treadwear for the new tyre is 280. What is treadwear of the stock Nexen?

NEXEN SU1 more popular now

I've tested and used a lot of tires especially ultra performance.

The manufacturing year if 2013 still oklah...just use until the reach the wear limit. No need to think too much bro.

btw how old is your tyre when you started using it till 5 years?

Are you kidding me Nexen N8000 has good reviews? They're totally and utterly SHITTY fucking tyres. Shitty grip, shitty cornering, shitty comfort.

Even if it was given to me for free i would burn the shit out of them.

Meaning there's hope my tyre will last 6 years haha

It's a good lasting tyre for regular driving not kaki lumba and speed fiend

How much mileage your current tyre then?

Camber sudah lari.. Better go check.

I do alignment balancing rotation every 10k km, just that i like to let the car slide everyday.. Theres a particular area near my place where I can let the car drift a little but safely since theres no people at all..

bro, believe me. never buy new tyre which more than 1 years.

If it's not very cheap, why take a 3 yr old tyre?

As long as you use the car daily, should not have any problems with 3 year old tires

Well, if you scared than I will say difference between 1 year old tires and 3 year old tires will be the first month. Old tires the rubber a bit harder, but as you drive more, it will be same as 1 year old tire. After 1 month there will be no difference.

i'm talking across the board, i don't race or speed like crazy . I used one, and it by far the worst tyre ever, if give free oso i don't want, is very unsafe, especially during wet.

the tyre is so bad it should be banned from sale...ever.

Nexen SU1 is superb in the wet surprisingly, but dry cornering is only slightly better than family tires...when corner push a bit protest like kena rape

those are high end tyres
CPC2 not consider high end...above normal only
