The Nexen CP672 is an all-season touring tyre whose owner feedback most clearly favours tread life, with positive comments on noise, comfort and value. Dry grip is divided, and some early wet-grip complaints qualify its appeal for drivers prioritising traction.
Tread life is the clearest attraction of the Nexen CP672. Mid-life and end-of-life owner accounts describe substantial mileage with useful tread remaining, supporting that strength beyond an initial impression. Low road noise, comfort and value also attract favourable comments, suggesting a touring tyre with appeal for drivers who prioritise service life and everyday refinement. However, those positives come from a modest record of 12 reviews rather than an independent comparison.
Grip is less consistent. Dry grip attracts both praise and criticism, and two early accounts strongly criticise wet traction despite favourable wet-weather experiences elsewhere. Later-life accounts also disagree on grip, so the record does not show a uniform decline or establish dependable traction throughout its life. Four reviews lack a stage of use, further limiting conclusions about ageing. Useful mileage is therefore a better-supported strength than grip consistency, with no measured braking or handling results here to resolve those differing owner experiences.

What owners say summarised from 12 reviews
The Nexen CP672 receives its clearest owner praise for tread life, supported by mid-life and end-of-life accounts with substantial mileage and remaining tread. Low noise, comfort and value also attract favourable comments. Grip is less consistent: dry grip draws both praise and criticism, while two early accounts strongly criticise wet grip despite favourable wet-weather experiences elsewhere. Those differences mean useful mileage should not be taken as evidence of dependable traction in all conditions. Later-life accounts also disagree on grip, rather than showing a uniform decline. Twelve reviews are available, four without a stage of use, leaving a general ageing pattern unresolved.
