Specifications

Technical information

Our classification not an official manufacturer classification

Focus: Sport

With sport tyres, grip in every situation is what decides — under hard acceleration, under braking, in the dry and in the wet. Nexen N'FERA SPORT belongs to this group. Stability at higher speeds and precision through corners come on top of that. One thing drivers often underestimate when buying: grip comes from a softer compound, and a softer compound wears faster. Where a standard tyre covers roughly 40,000 km, a sport tyre manages about 20,000 to 30,000 km — and considerably less with a sharper driving style or a heavier, more powerful car.

<p>My car was supplied on these new. I’ve done 22k miles on them in 10 months. Grip levels were excellent, and they always felt confident in wet weather. However, as the tyres aged, motorway noise became quite literally unbearable towards the end of the tyres life. SO noisy.</p><p>They handle well - give good feedback through the steering wheel of my Leon.</p><p>However, they have worn extremely quickly, and this is the main reason I wouldn’t buy them again. If I’m honest, I should have replaced them at 18,000 miles… I’ve managed to stretch them out to 22,000 - but they are literally illegal now - cords are showing on both front tyre shoulders. Swapping them tomorrow for some all season Bridgestones, having had a decent experience with the summer versions on my previous A200.</p>

BMW ix1, wife driving kids around. After 15k miles tyres need changing due to severe wear at the outer and inner shoulder. Alignment and pressures are spot on but all 4 tyres are gone. Plenty of tread left otherwise. Pretty noisy tyres. Bad decision BMW

I've driven the tyre's about 40 000km on my family diesel wagon.The final result is four summers and they're gone.The protector is about 4mm,the outer side of the tires is melted like slick tire,and pieces of rubber come off.After a little bump one of the tires got a puncture in the side board,which surprised me a little,but for the price everything is OK.The grip is very good in wet and dry,they perform good in dynamic driving...when they new :)

★★★☆☆

The tyres came with the car out of the factory and let me start with saying that they are OK, especially at the price point. I have driven better tires, however.
Dry grip is adequate, however, the rubber compound is extremely soft, for a summer performance tire and they squirm a bit under hard cornering. On the other hand the carcass is rather stiff on W speed rated tires and it rides badly. Comfort is pretty mediocre, both ride quality and tire noise are, well, bad.
Wet performance seems to be better than dry - I guess the soft compound is better in the wet when temperatures are lower, which again is strange for a summer performance tire.
Tire wear seems to be normal so far - about 1 mm of wear in 12 000 km, which is about what I get with most tires.
Overall the tire is decent for how cheap it is and it's certainly far better than some chinese ditch finder, but don't expect best in class performance for 1/3 of the price.
