Bought these as tyres for new wheels when I replaced the old ones, which had Nexen N1000s on them. The tyres I bought are actually Roadstones on the sidewall, but they are the exact same in every way.

I'm actually really pleased with these, another good and low cost tyre from Nexen. The tyre composes itself very well in the dry, and has better aquaplaining resistance than the N1000s I had previous, but as usual do not come close to the Rainsport 3s from Uniroyal. Road feedback is really good, the sidewalls are nice and stiff too so there's no unnecessary roll on them. Wear wise, the tyres are lasting very well given the occasional fast road use that they see, so I'm very happy on that front. Comfort wise they're not the world's quietest tyres, but they're quite easily drowned out by just turning the music up a little.

Given the £42.50 per corner these cost on eBay at 225/40/18 size, I'm pretty chuffed with the tyres. Overall would recommend to anyone.

I bought these as a set of four to replace a crap load of Bridgestone Potenzas . Straight away I could feel the road but so much quieter and much more comfortable . Wet grip is superb and very predictable . I have been across farm fields and they show no sign of giving up like the Bridgestones did . Cannot fault these , going to get another set for my other car .

Love these tyres. Admittedly they did replace the crappest mixed bag of ditch finders which were on the car when I bought it, but I have been delighted with the performance of the tyres! Te only slight criticism I have of them is that the tyre wall is a bit soft. This does add to the comfort of the ride a bit (benefit) but if you're pushing on it can lead to them feeling a little bit unstable.

i had a linglong greenmax hp010 that it lasted 55000km on front without major problems so i decided to go on Nexen Nfera SU4 because i read good reviews and until now thei are great in dry, wet, noise, confort and maneuverability in high speeds so i will bye again. the tyres have soft rubber and it was made in china. fFor now it will premature to say how the tyre in wear but the time will speak for yourself.

Given 90% while driving a Toyota Chaser (225/40 R18 W) on a combination of roads for 0 spirited miles
I thought id try these after my N8000's wore out. These are really good for a daily driven car. They're afordable and reliable. They grip well in the dry and wet. I decided to take them to a track day. They held up really well but they seem more like normal tyre for daily commuting. I would recommend these to everyone for street usage and spirited driving but not so much for track days. They held up fine for drifting but still would recommend for a daily commute tyre. In a few months ill will be Purchasing Nexen SUR4 tyres to see how they perform. I will be testing them on the track as well.

Given 94% while driving a Lexus GS430 (245/40 R18 W) on a combination of roads for 1,000 spirited miles
Bought these in a 245/40/18 for £64 a corner to fit to my V8 Lexus as the Dunlop SP2030's fitted to it were uncomfortable and very noisy, which was especially highlighted in a near silent Lexus.

I would normally purchase premium tyres but I was intrigued by the combination of the Nexen's bargain price and excellent EU rating of A for wet weather braking and B for fuel economy. The Dunlops that came off my car are EU rated E & E, which is incredibly poor, and these would have cost £130 a corner!!

My car has been transformed for the better on these Nexen's with lower road noise, significantly improved ride comfort and excellent wet weather traction. Btw, I'm in my early 40s and don't drive like Miss Daisy.

I saw these tyres, although they have Roadstone on the side wall, they look identical to the Nexen and Roadstone are made by Nexen. Have found these to be excellent, after 11k the fronts still have 4mm of tread and the rears 6mm. Both wet and dry grip is very good and the car feels comfortable to drive. I would recommend these tyres.

Got a recommendation by local shop owner for these tires (friend of mine) and he gave me a great deal on them so i said OK but was skeptic.
First impressions where WOW, there are quiet on new level vs my previous Potenza RE070. Handling feel is great in RE070 level as well. There are more comfortable then potenzas tough and i find that to be better for city/local roads. It just feels like it costs almost double it's price. Extremely satisfied will buy again.

Given 100% while driving a Audi A4 2.0 TFSI (205 bhp) (245/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 1,000 spirited miles
Ever since I bought my car the steering always felt scary where it will pull to either the left or right on different surfaces ever so often. I sent the car to the agents who in turn sent to a suspension specialist where they found the tyres (Pirelli PZero) to be an issue. The agents changed the set to Pirelli Cinturato P7, same problem. Lived with the problem and took it that maybe its the car and the light power steering it has. Eventually time for a change up and decided on the N Fera SU4 for its price and food rating. Problem solved in many ways, grip is better in the wet and dry than its ever been. Steering is solid on all surfaces. No road noise on any surface and even under braking. Brilliant tyre for its price and it should rate up there with the premium brands.
