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

Sampah Nexen kau pergi beli buat apa?

Beli lah Michelin ke, Dunlop ke, Toyo ke

3 yr old tyres....unless it is half price, why bother.

Maciam slick tyre dah, alignment lari nih bro

My tyre size 195/50/16 dont have high end tyres, mostly all eco tyres, the only sport tyres for this size that i know is toyo t1r, dunlop direzza dz102 and momo outrun m3

Hari² touge haha

Never ever buy Nexen. Worst tyres ever. Even Achilles oso better than Nexen.

of coz la. u think after 5years suddenly it become rubber powder meh?

i think Leon is a forummer here

where's the quicksave boss? I think he lurk in /k also. Can someone tag him?

Tyre change at "Quick Save" USJ....

Any review on bridgestone ecopia ?

Last time people say Nexen N8000 was poor man's Michelin PS3. Didn't know it was actually bad.

Nowdays so many tyre within the range u can choose, still my fav cheap tyre atr sport, ventus v2, and r003

yeah, stress looking for that size of tires. another choice is T1R but sidewall soft macam pepek

Wanna try momo outrum m3 lah lepas ni

Eco = cheap? same size tyres as you, bro...they are getting old and I need suggestions.. Dunlop good ah for normal non-touge driving?

If you dont drive aggressively,for that size I can recommend Yokohama BluEarth AE50, very quiet, very good in the rain, but really not for hardcore genting/uluyam type

really meh? RE003 more cheaper than Conti CPC2 wor..

Hows this shop overall for alignment and balancing

Don't bother. Lousy skills. Better off with Autopex Glenmarie or MPS Sunway.

I would say good in this aspect. But i had to wait more than 3 hours to have everything done. Also when i ask Leon the boss, can i get year 2016 tyre he said no but most probably i will get year 2015 tyre 3rd quarter. So i just take his word for it and also the shop has good reputation. Why i didn't expect of is it's up to the staff to choose the tyre so i guess he took the opportunity to dispose of the old tyre to me. The price is slightly lower than most tyre shop in Klang Valley excluding those in Klang..

I'm simple man, i just wan a simple alignment good and honest enough d.

Anybody has used toyo tires before.. Specifically toyo neo3?
