Michelin  X-Ice Snow

This is a great tire. smooth and quit ride. has great dry, wet, and ice and snow traction

I bought my car with these tires on it already, with moderate wear but still fully functional, and I now that I am replacing them after running through fresh accident debris and flattening them on the highway, I cannot say I am not a little relived. (Though they were surprisingly effective without any tire pressure in that instance)
I was waiting for a good excuse to get new tires because though I don't know my BMW with any other, I am positive they are holding it back because few cars preform this poorly in snow and while cornering above 40mph. I must warn anybody who is looking at these who may encounter snow before switching these for their winter pair, you will want these off before a New England October, they may as well be summer tires, they even have reoccuring slow air leaks in sub-zero climate. However, they seem to like the rain? They truly work best when the road is wet, don't know why.
Nearing the end of their lives, they got really bad, and they wore much faster than expected by any all-season tire. On the highway I started experiencing excessive road noise, tire hop with moderate fish tailing that would scare new passengers, and was just feeling the first signs of vibration. That being said, I drove these tires into the ground, so they held up pretty well for the state they were in.
Overall, these tires do not last, but will offer mediocre preformance rather consistantly, unless there is any snow on the ground whatsoever.

Typically I replace stock tires because most are fair to poor. These H rated Nexen seem quite up to snuff in dry conditions. These are the stock tires on my 2017 KIA Soul 1.6 auto.
Compared to the Pirelli P7s I had on my 2015 Soul 2.0, these seem at least as good in takeoff traction, cornering traction and characteristics, braking stability, quietness and smoothness on various pavements.
The P7s were easy to chirp off the line. They had a terrible wet rating, but I never had issues.
I know I lured a V8 Mustang into a drag race--well, more like he took off down Oakwood Boulevard at about 90 and eventually a Corvette found him and they did their thing. But a tire chirp for some guys means Let's Go!
These I don't get rubber on takeoff, but this car has the 1.6 with less torque than my '15, though the mill feels just as strong. I'll find out when I switch to Bridgestone Blizzak WS80s because my 2.0 Soul also got an easy chirp out of those from a standing start. That will determine if the Nexens are Traction Monsters or just that the 2.0 has more dig out of the hole than the 1.6.
When I replaced the stock Nexen 662s with Michelin Defenders on my 2013 Soul 1.6, the difference was obvious as night and day. The Defenders were much quieter, smoother, rode better, gripped better. They were a clear upgrade and to me were well worth the $$.
Nexen seems to have come a long way in four years. These 671s are quiet, smooth, and unremarkable--no glaring weaknesses--and that's what I ask of my tires. They don't squeal in fast corners, they respond quickly. They do their job.
They feel good on max braking. These seem pretty decent all-around tires. Odd that there are NO reviews
I haven't had them in the wet yet, it hasn't snowed yet.
But for everyday zipping around, these seem fine. Would I buy them as replacements? That would depend on price and test results, except nobody's posted tests of them.

These are the original tires on my Kia Soul + with EcoDynamics. I'd have to say these are probably the best OE tires I've ever had. They aren't the best but darn near close. They are a perfect match for this car. A good combination of dry & wet performance and relatively quite. If you don't drive like an animal, these tires will serve you well. The same could be said for pretty much any tire though probably.

These tires came on my Kia Forte EX when I bought it new. I now have 30,000 miles on my car and though the tires have worn ok.l incredibly well evenly throughout the tire, the treadwear longevity doesn't meet my expectations. They only have about 5,000 to 10,000 miles left on the treadlife which is below my expectations for a tire. Another good thing about the tires besides the great evenly wearing thread is that I've had my car for almost 2 years and I rotate the tires every other oil change, but I've never had to balance these tires yet, and they continue to ride smoothly even at speeds exceeding 100 mph. Which I find amazing about them, but wish the snow traction was better to. The wet and dry traction in my opinion is second to none. I'm won't buy these tires again cause they don't last more than 35,000 to 40,000 miles tops, as and that's with religious rotation intervals, proper pressure kept, and no burnouts or foul play.

These came on my 2016 KIA OPTIMA EX and I've been very happy!
Ratings aren't very high and I don't understand that, these are very capable, comfortable tires.

I've been tires for my vehicles for over 50 years and have pretty much come to the conclusion that MICHELIN is the best tire I've owned........
However, having said that, I purchased a new KIA OPTIMA that has this NEXEN tire from the factory.
I am extremely impressed with the comfort and performance of this tire. Michelin is well know for they're quiet, quality tires, but these NEXEN's have really impressed me. Some reviews on the Internet are not flattering for some early NEXEN tire models, but this specific tire is extremely quiet as well as extremely smooth. These tires are as smooth as any set of tires I've owned on some 20 vehicles.
If you want a great, comfortable tire, this is IT!

These were stock tires on my Kia when I purchased it new.
These tires have been quiet, comfortable and high performing over a variety of road surfaces and conditions. I have been average well over 30 mpg over two years with this set. They wear well and just now am I getting a little slippage when cornering. I cannot think of a better tire value for general driving.

these tires handle well, but wear cray fast, i barely got 20k on them and have to replace them. the tread wears super fast and the sidewalls do not weather well either. replaced with some yokohamas... we'll see how those are.

This tire is the worst for tire wear. I have driven several 2-3 year old cars (with Nexen tires) for the dealer that I work for and each vehicle had NO tread left after 23/24000 miles, most were completely bald. The dealer line is that they don't usually put good tires on news cars any longer.
Well I think most of know that this is not true. My other car has Kuhmo tires with 56,000 miles on them and there is still plenty of tread life left. If you read the description it will tell you that there is no treadlife warranty. Sorry Nexen, I will not consider you for replacement.

Slightly disappointed in the wearing of these tires, I did not do 1st rotation until 8K and the front tires were significantly worn...very evenly though....beyond that, happy with them.
