230/45 18 Tire Review Highlights

Nexen WinGuard Sport 2 rated 61% while driving a Tesla Model 3
Driving on mostly motorways for 5000 average miles
Bought these tires because they were cheaper compared to other Ultra High Performance tires (Michelin PS4S, Pirreli Sotozzero, Vrendstein Wintrac). We don't get much snow and I thought for 3 months these will be fine until I switch to my normal summer tires. I have a 450HP all wheel drive electric car.

Turns out, the tires have weak lateral sidewalls and as such handling on my car suffers a lot (and I like a sporty drive). A lot of fine dust rubber from the rear tires ends up on the car's paint and glues on to it - something I didn't expect would happen and washing this dust from the paint is very difficult to do. Tires are also a bit noisy. Decent tires but wouldn't buy again.
