NEXEN Winguard Winspike 3 Winter Tire - 205/70R15 96T

good quality tires. I have tested many flavors of winter tires and this work great in the snow belt. I am in snowbelt Michigan and a rural Postal carrier. I go through a lot of every terrain. These tires give me the confidence I need out there. I can legally use studs. I did purchase them but never installed them

I just pushed snow with the bumper of a BMW for an entire block. Stopped, and then set off without issue with snow up to the bottom of the doors. they're not super quiet and the wet performance is meh, but they will have traction in the snow. This weekend was my second winter storm with these. 90% the performance of a top tier winter tire at 60% the cost.

Great tires!

Bought four tires. Used for 3 months before one mysteriously went flat. Had it checked but couldn't find source of leak. Put it back in service, and 1 month later the same tire went flat again. Was tempted to get rid of all four, but ordered one to replace the bad one. Didn't try warranty. Lord knows how one would claim a tire warranty from amazon. As far as the three tires other than the flats, the tires are great. I've owned Blizzaks, and was happy with these Nexens before the flats. Good in snow, good ride, quiet. Won't buy again. Update- A second tire out of the five has now gone mysteriously flat. Possibly defective beads from the factory? Tires are complete junk. I will never buy another Nexen tire. Star rating changed to one star. I would rate them zero stars, but that is not an option.

Great winter tires. No complaints. I put them on my 2024 tundra. They grip well in New England winters.

Not sure the confusion unless they updated the description. Pretty clear these are studdable with optional studs and don't come with them . I have run them for 2 winters on a Frontier and even with all the snow we had this year I only needed 4wd a few times. Quieter than my normal tires and much better handling. I get more wheel slip in the summer with my all seasons than I do with these in snow and ice. Put about 10k miles on them and they look like new. I have had different winter tires and these perform just as well as the big names costing substantially more.

Great looking tire but the ad shows studded tires . These tires do not come studded . I ended up returning tires.

Installed on our 2019 Pacifica van. My wife says it gets so much better traction than our Goodyear 80K tires. We have a steep driveway, and usually have to put down sand or salt when winter weather makes difficult! The soft aggressive tread design has made it up our driveway all winter thus far! This is a soft compound, and we will not run in the summer months as they would wear out quickly….
