good
Ranked #11 of 14
Finishing 9th out of 14, the Nexen N Blue 4 Season tire displayed a performance characterized by a balanced level on various fronts. It was applauded for its short braking distances on dry roads and strong aquaplaning resistance, coupled with a quiet rolling noise. The tire was also recognized for its cost effectiveness and longevity, offering good value for the price, particularly shining in the areas of exterior noise and price-to-value ratio. However, it was not without drawbacks, as it demonstrated moderate lateral grip on wet surfaces and suffered from an increased rolling resistance, detracting slightly from its overall efficiency. Despite these criticisms, its positive aspects in critical safety and economic parameters marked its standing in the evaluation.
