Hi,
This is an update to the Aug-13 review on this website.
Overall Nexen N9000 is a GREAT tyre & will match many premium brand, eg Brigestone Potenza RE-11.
Loudness: I find that they are NOT any worse compare to other premium-tyres. As rubber ages, they ALL harden & the noise rises. Those who know 2011 Mazda3, it WILL show up ANY loud tyres.
Wear: I fitted these to the FRONT wheels because FWD cars chew front tyres. The rubber is perfect for Adelaide's mild weather: winter days are approx. 10 degree Celsius. They have 8 mm thread height when new & do wear well.
Buy again: YES. The reason being for the price ($AUD 135 each fitted & balanced or 17"), it is one of the best 'bang for buck' tyre for mild weather climate.
Recently, I drove them on the Great Ocean Road & did it grip for a 3+ years old tyres :-) We also drove on sealed country roads, both wet & dry. The air temp. range from 10 to 20 degree Celsius.
This review was based on spirited driving to the limit of adhesion of the tyres.
I am looking for a replacement.....may be Achilles ATR Sport 2 ? & definitely NOT the version 1.
Thanks for reading.

Given 91% while driving a Audi (235/45 R18) on mostly country roads for 12 spirited miles
Great tyres. Forget the bad reviews by people with old hondas ect. Ive never known a tyre to grip as well in the wet as the n9000. Ive been around a bit with many different car/tyre combos, and again no tyre has gripped as well in the wet. Dry grip is suberb as you would expect. Noise levels are low aswell. They may wear a bit quicker than premium brands but for the price, they cant be beaten. Mime were £52 a tyre...basically a steal. Have used nexen for a while now, and will continue to do so...Pirelli who?...

I really questioned the motive of the guy who provided bad review of Nexen N9000 on this web site. I bought a pair for the FRONT-tyres: 2010 Mazda3 hatch. And the verdict.....

* AWESOME & MORE-AWESOME. The the best value for money tyres for road-use, 'only a few' aggressive cornerings, see my scores
* Similar to my previous Nitto-INVO, Toyo-R1R, Bridgestone-Adrenalin tyres
* deep-wide grove really cut through the water
* tread pattern look great
* quiet tyres: those who runs WIDE tyres on Mazda3 know EXACTLY what I mean :-)
* softer sidewall compare to other performance-tyres but @ 45psi & 40 profile, the difference is negligible
* paid $AUD 135 each with install & balanced, LOWEST price for it class

FYI, Adelaide temp. is 15 to 40 degree, no snow hence summer tyres are good
