Toyo NanoEnergy 3 Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 38 reviews

The Toyo NanoEnergy 3 receives mostly favorable owner reviews, with dry grip, ride comfort, quiet running and tread life the clearest strengths. Mid-life and end-of-life accounts repeatedly support good wear, although a few describe more noise or reduced grip later on. Wet grip is much more divided, with eleven favorable mentions against eight complaints, so confidence in rain is less consistent than dry performance. Wet braking is a particular reservation, criticised in around one in six reviews, while a smaller group reports weak wet handling. Steering feedback also divides opinion, leaving comfort and everyday dry use better supported than sharp responses or dependable wet stopping.

Had NanoEnergy 3s fitted for a couple of weeks now and have put almost 1000km on them. They replaced a set of Continental PremiumContact 2s which were a very good tire that lasted surprisingly long (65,000km). The NanoEnergy 3 is significantly quieter than the Continental and grip levels feel similar (possibly more grip with the Toyos) with a special mention to wet grip which is exceptional for a touring tire – the Toyos get four water evacuation grooves compared to the Conti's three.
The NanoEnergy's again are very quiet and are very comfortable, but do give a 'boatier' feel than the Contis did: they are more comfortable, but less involving as they give less direct feedback. The Toyos also have a 420 treadwear rating compared to the Conti's 280, which should mean they will last a fair bit longer than the Contis did. Overall however, I am extremely happy with the NanoEnergy 3s and will continue to use them on my cars.

Amazing dry grip, excellent wet grip, totally quiet#, rubbery supple ride, good low wear rate. I think Toyo have really nailed it with the Nanoenergy 3, they have proven to be snmooth and quiet with amazing grip both in the dry and in the wet. I live east of Melbourne Australia in the Mt Dandenong Ranges (hills) its cold and wet most of the year so I wanted a tire for my W123 Mercedes Benz 230E that would give great wet weather grip but also for cray hot weather too, a good level of conmfort, and be a low rolling resistance eco tire, and Toyo Nanoenergy does all this with ease! #If they had a fault I would say they make some ripping or tearing noise when cornering tight hairpin bends at break-neck speeds, but that's my only issue. Toyo... Well done indeed :D
