Nexen NFera SU61's came in today.

Did a ton of research. For the price, these seemed to be one of the best choices for what I am looking to do. Little bit of everything, road cours, AutoX, drag race and daily driving. Did not want to spend $1000+ on tires every few months.

My HRE FF15's are showing up today as well. So I am going to try and get these ont he car before my road course outing this Sunday.

Interested in your thoughts on these. My priorities are similar. I haven't heard anything about these tires though.

Nexen is trying to get back into the summer tire market with some legitimacy which hopefully means their tires will actually be good - at least better than Nitto.

Unfortunately, these don't seem to be available in GT PP wheel sizes nor any 20", unless I'm missing something. I'd like another option in the 20" 275 or 285-35 and 305-35 sizes.

If you don't mind me asking, what was the price of the tires?

The ones I just posted are 275/35-20 ;)

Go to Nexens site and check their application sheet for the NFera tires. They may have 19s?

My cost was about $600 for the set from a local supplier.

Hmm. Well... I was looking at TireBuyer or some such website. Cool beans!

Just an FYI.

The Pypes Touring Axleback is 18lbs lighter than the OE Axleback.

I will take it!

Nice weight savings you got there!

 

[BMR Tech]

Oh snappity snap! HRE FF15s FTW!

 

[wildcatgoal]

Why you no open box?

 

[BMR Tech]

Working. I may take off a little early to go get them mounted and balanced.

Pretty happy with these tires!

They protect the wheels WAY better than the same size MT comps on my other car. Not even comparable. Good work Nexen.

Handling impressions? Go take some on-ramps with some speed!

This wheel and tire combo made a HUGE difference. I'm amazed to be honest. Car feels so much better, it's truly unbelievable. I'm sold on square 275s, and this tire. Of course the wheels saving 30+lbs is a no brainer.

I need to lower the car and get some tint! Car will look way better.

Wondering. Did you weigh the car stock vs now? How much weight have you actually removed?
