I bought them in semenyih for 265/pc, boss gave me old price (manuf date: Dec 2010)
N8000 is UHP with AA Traction and receive many good reviews
The only stone i trust is Bridgie smile_tongue.gif

He Kajang kaki..... smile_wink.gif

But you are using Roadstone mah! Nexen are called Roadstone in different country.....ha! ha!
Now after Bridgestone, Silverstone, Roadstone, the latest to join in is the Rockstone. These are from China..... smile_big.gif

Yup, just found out that the Kia Forte 2.0 was having them as OE tyres since mid year. They only launch now because now have 11 sizes. The Forte 1.6 I think is with 16".

This is what I found from Kia Forte club forum....
Comparison with stock Kumho tyre
Dry grip: not much different
Wet Grip: significantly better!
Silent: slightly better
Comfort: not much different

No wonder bro. ymchong change his tyres after one week...... smile_wink.gif


hahahaha...correct bro vr2turbo smile_big.gif one week was enough. so far the kimchi nexen n6000 is performing reasonably well. i'm still waiting for the yokos smile_tongue.gif
well, hopefully more members who are using this silverstone altanvis v7 tyre can give feedback/review.
cheers!

Nexen used to be bad also from the older N3000, but so far N6000 & N8000 accepted by most.....
