Default Nexum tires any good?

I'm looking at a set of used Nexum X rated tires. the ad doesn't list the model or anything but they say there are Z rated.

Are nexum tires any good?

The set I'm looking at is about $100 for 2 used nexum tires with about 95% trade life.


Thanks,

Ken

they are one of the cheapest tires made... price doesn't always mean something, but in general, when it comes to tires, it does...

Nexen is about the cheapest made tire you can find, right next to the Federals...

I would not recommend them unless your using it to burn up. Federals are not that bad the only federals I've used are the 595ss for drifting
