Default Fuzion Touring vs Nexen N5000

Title basically says it all, but....

The tires are not for my Lex, it's for my fathers 2000 Maxima (215/55/16). I was originally going to order the Fuzion Tourings from Tire Rack (one of their best selling All Seasons) for $320 shipped to my local tire shop who was going to charge me $80 for mounting and balancing. But he said those where garbage and recommended the Nexen N5000's for $460 installed.

They only use the car on weekends for groceries, no more than 15 miles locally per week, only occasionally a trip might be made into the island which is no more then 50 miles round trip. The car will definitely be replaced sometime in 2014, and those are the reasons why I do not want to spend a lot on new tires.

Does anyone have experience with either of the tires or can offer a recommendation based on the situation?

Thanks in advance!

I would go with the Fuzions over the Nexen any day of the week...
