Nexen N5000
FYI:
I wanted to drop in a quick review of some tires I bought a while back.
I bought a set of Nexen N5000 215/50/17 on ebay about a year ago and had them mounted on my 4th Gen GLE at Walmart. Hey, what can I say, I'm cheap and it's a 12 year old daily driver car. My commute is mostly back roads with curves with a little city and highway thrown in.
So far, I've been very pleased with the tires. I live in MD, so we get all kinds of weather, dry, wet, snow, ice. They're reasonably quiet and they grip very well on both dry and wet roads. They handle snow and ice as well as any other tire I've used. I've had BF Goodrich Touring T/A Radials on several cars (only specific brand I can remember for comparison) and these compare very favorably. I would choose the Nexen's over the BF Goodrich tires every time.
Hope this helps someone out!

Nice. I had a set of nexen n3000 which are the performance version. Loved em hooked up great. But they have a terribe tread rate. oh well last me the 4-1/2 good months of summer and they are extremely cheap so easy to pick up agian.

Congrats on the N5000's. Hope the work well for your ride.
Hey ZaxWhite97Max, I just purchased a set of Nexen N3000 performance tires. I love the way they look on the Max...guess I have to see how fast the tread wears out.
