Product description

  • Budget tyre for powerful cars
  • Improved braking
  • Rapid water drainage

The asymmetric Nexen N8000 tyre is designed for use with powerful saloons and improves safety in both dry and wet road conditions.

Handling: the three central ribs make for a stable drive and good drivability. The inner shoulder block distribution improves road holding at high speeds.  

Safety: the configuration of the outer blocks and high styrene content in the rubber compound make for improved braking. The four circumferential grooves quickly disperse water, limiting the risks of aquaplaning.

What is the rezulteo score?

The rezulteo score is calculated considering three performance categories: economy, comfort and safety. When it comes to winter tyres, the performance criteria snow and ice are added. By weighting different basic performance criteria an overall score is determined. This weighting is calculated based on the tyre size category: economic, high performance or sports.
