Nexen tires

Has anyone had Nexxen tires on their BMW...if so, how good or not good are they? Looking for tires and was told to possibly try them out

Not great at all - budget tires. I would shell out a little more for better tires if I were you

Hankook Ventus S1s seem to get good marks from customers who purchased them from Tirerack. Other popular all-seasons would be the Continental DWS, Kumho Ecsta 4X, or General G-Max AS-03.

Nexxen tires? Ya, you pretty much get exactly what you paid for, maybe less.

IMO Nexens (N2000?) are a decent budget street tire. I'd go with a Nitto N555 instead if looking for something cheap but decent.

You bought a 300+ hp BMW and now you want to put cheap tires on it?

I would recommend the DWS. Great tire for the money.
