Shopping for tires and saw these pop up as new.

Anyone run these before?

I have it on good authority that Nexens, like Federals, do work.

I was wondering that myself. I think it's so new that not many have used them. The price isn't too bad.

Im hesitant to try them being more expensive than a tired and true tire like the RS-3. That being said im getting sent a set to test for feed back for my local distributor. If they ever show up i will update the thread.

Just out of curiosity on the price why not go with something that is true and tried for the same price or cheaper like the RE71R or RS3?

because what if they are faster and better than a RS3?

I read elsewhere there is speculation that this is the compound for the new rs3, i dont know about the truth behind it but, rumors

Adding a new unnecessary variable, the tire to beat is the re71r and switching from the rs3 will just unnecessarily complicate growth in the track.

i didnt buy them either because 10$$ cheaper doesnt sound worth the risk.

The RE71R is by far my favorite tire at this time. They have been amazing at every turn
