Nexen: a full range between budget and premium

The Korean middle ground

Nexen is a South Korean manufacturer with more than eighty years of history. In the market it sits between the budget and premium segments: prices are lower than on European premium brand tyres, but the model range is complete and several car makers fit Nexen tyres at the factory.

N'Fera, WinGuard and N Blue

Our Nexen range is built on three families: N'Fera for summer, WinGuard for winter and N Blue 4 Season for all seasons. The range runs from R13 to R23, so it covers both older small cars and newer SUVs.

The table lists the most popular models from our current in-stock range, not the manufacturer's full model list.

There are practically no studded Nexen tyres in our range - the winter lines here are studless. If you need studded tyres, the choice is in the studded tyre section.

Who Nexen suits best

Nexen suits those looking for a balance between price and quality who drive mainly on treated roads. The N Blue 4 Season is one of the most affordable all-season tyres with the 3PMSF marking.

If you need studded tyres or maximum grip on ice, the Nordic brands in our range are a better fit. The winter period requirements are explained by CSDD; a comparison with the premium segment is in the article Budget or premium tyres.
