Nexen N2000 tyres brief review. Options

[youseman]

Decided to get some new rubber a couple of days ago.

Did a little online research and decided the best tyres for my budget were Nexen N2000. Found a place that stocked them locally and drove down, all fitted and balanced in 30 minutes... WIN!

Size is stock 205/55/r15

The tyres are freaking awesome. I wanted a tyre that will handle well in wet and dry (living the UK, we love the rain =[ ) so I am aware I can have the best of both worlds, but I got pretty good for both. The amount of grip isn't astonishing but still impressive, the best bit is it doesnt dramatically alter even when the road is very wet.

The best bit about these tyres is the slip at the limit. The begin to let go very gradually, letting you know safely that this is as fast as this corner is going to get. Past that point the slide is smooth and predictable with no sudden slips. They were so predictable I even managed a little four wheel drift on the exit of a roundabout (it was 4am so pretty safe) and I'm not exactly Michael Schumacher.

Review concluded.
Recommended? Definately!
