Nexen N Fera SU4 Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 70 reviews

The Nexen N Fera SU4 receives strongly positive owner feedback, led by dry grip, wet grip and value. Thirty-three of 68 accounts discussing specific aspects praise dry grip without a matching complaint, and wet grip attracts 26 positive comments against three criticisms. Noise, comfort and tread life are also more often praised than criticised. Around one in eleven mention noise or comfort concerns, while a smaller minority find the sidewall too soft. Repeat reviews remain broadly favorable, but they do not establish a consistent long-term ageing pattern across the wider group.

Very good tire, handling is very nice, dry grip is excelent on the wet is also good. I was pushing the tires to their limits and they never dissapoint ..The only complaint is that the wear is not that good.. I highly recomend this tire.

After reading the reviews I decided to buy this tire and I am extremely happy with the choice. The tire feels very grippy, wet handling is also very manageable. The only negative thing is about my choice in tire size, as now I would like a wider tire. However, given the 225 width its still a very confidence giving tire.

After reading all the positive feedbacks of this value brand tires (Korean brand but manufactured in China), decided to try 2 pieces in the front swapping 1 year old Sportiva Compact to the rear on my workhorse (30km highways and 10km city driving daily). After using it for 1.5 month during a monsoon season in Malaysia, I would say it is a very good tire with a small price tag - highly recommended for general use.

First of all, I apologize about the use of English that I may not be able to use very well. I use Nissan Teana l33 2.5 xv Thailand road surface.(There is only summer and rainy season without snow.) Driving style will mainly use Cruise Control driving, not driving at full speed, it's 130 kilometers per hour. Most use a travel speed of 110 kilometers per hour. Before switching to nexen su 4 tires, I was using Bridgestone t500A tires, one of which had a leak when driving long distances upcountry. So I changed to 1 presa brand tire with tradewear at 280. After driving Bridgestone for 50,000 kilometers, it appeared that the front left tire started to swell when going to change the oil. So changed to nexen su 4 tires from reviews on this website. Found that this tire is clearly louder than Bridgestone t500a, it is more stiff. sound worse Keep road joints worse but with a relatively cheap price In terms of value, it's okay because nexen Su4 can replace 2 sets of Bridgestone t500 a. Dry and Wet = 8 Road Feedback = 6 Handling = 8 Wear = 7 Comfort = 6 Buy again= 8

I was skeptical at first about these because where I got them the tires themselves were made in China, but to my surprise in the beginning. The comfort levels were the best I ever had even comparing to previous Michelin XM2s. Then next came the grip, I immediately drove 200km+ traveling the highway and the grip was good in both dry and wet, even before the tires was worn in the grip was good enough for my Toyota Vios(Yaris Sedan) to go up to very spirited speeds 150km/h+ even in the wet. I had them on for about 2 years now with almost 30,000km mileage and sure enough the shallower threads are starting to wear away, but no noticeable reduction in grip. Honestly for this price, this tire should be worth much more praise. Do not judge a tire by it's price and country of origin. Well done Nexen.

Bought this car second hand, tires are fifth season, dont know mileage. Am pleasantlly surprised, did only 500km, some highway speeding in heavy rain, good handling and control. Normaly I drive sport gt coupe on Pirellis pz4 or estate on Continental PremiumContact6; winter Continental ts870p and ts860, so if Nexen were crap I would notice.

Absolute top for dry grip and handling, but wear... Inner edge worn after 16k km, it is also a thing of too much negative camber I run on, but overall, they are at 60% after 16 000 km.. N7000 were better I would say.

Bought a set of SU4s today after reading the positive reviews here. Been travelling on Michelin Primacy 3s until they were well worned (great tires if you looking for long wearing tires) and straight out of the shop felt the immediate difference. Rise was smoother and quieter, tires cushioned the bumps and holes well but still had good feedback through the steering. Admittedly I just drove on them for less than 10km, looking forward to getting some good milage on them and see how they hold up. So far great start!

Quality is above its price. Very good grip on dry road, but you should not push it too hard on wet road. Not so comfortable. Noise is not loud. Buy it again? Maybe..... half the price of Pilot Sport 4 but the quality is only about 30% lower.
