The people who say that are the people who consider Nexens an upgrade. Honestly, they are still budget rubber and they are still arse. I've only ever seen them used by people who either can hardly afford to maintain their car or who spend all of their budget on bling and have nothing left for rubber. Save your coin and get some good tyres while your new wheels. You'll thank yourself for it.

Going to be away for work next week so needed to get it MOT'd asap. Went round to three independent tyres places in my lunch break- but Kwik fir were the cheapest for NEXENs- 4 for £350 incl fitting balancing valves etc. Thanks for the offer Will- really appreciate it. All the chaps I spoke to today were singing the praises of Nexens- saying a premium is not really worth the extra on the new price. Like everything- budget tyres have had to up their game- and people haven't got the money to throw away on branded tyres now!

They are cheap aren't they! But considering they are £84 plus delivery + fitting- don't really think that £350 fitted is too bad really. Just to be nosey-what would your company mark up on a £84 tyre?
that would be telling,thats where the killing is made put it this way i can beat the price you have had from kwik s**T this time they have not been that greedy must be the cold air,tell em you can get em cheaper but dont take the p you can actually knock them down they will look on the puter and check trade price and will re price you afterall they are after the trade and are pushed hard into selling everyday,prepared to be talked into a wheel alignment and other things aswell
