20" tyres

donp38 · Feb 9, 2015

Hi Guys.

Considering a few things regarding the understeer on my 2004 V8.

One of them is putting the original 20" wheels back (for the non- winter months).

Looking around a what cheaper rubber than michelin and see a tyre called Nexen.

Anybody got any info on these or anything else that they have found suitable for 20" wheels?

cheers.

ive heard good things about nexen rodians I think they are as a good tyre for not bad money
I picked up a set of new 20" Pirelli scorpion zeros off eBay for about £620 and got a mate to fit them and they are a great road tyre and don't mind a bit of mud

I am shod with Nexen rubber...always have been cos although at the cheaper end of the scale, they are a good hard wearing boot...no complaints.

Just a thought.

Are these ok in the snow and mildly off road?

I see I can get a set for about £400 fitted..

Pirelli are better for light off reading / snow

Used mine off road and were absolutely fine, intact quite impressive IMO, used them in a little amount of snow and again no issues.
HTH.

+1 I personally only fit/run scorpion zeros on my l322 outstanding allround imo, as for nexens @ £100 a corner fitted aint bad tbh.but sadly that's still more than I charge.
