Replying to: allmet33 (Aug 27, 2009 8:49 am) And, these are with cheap tires (Nexxen 7000s) which were reccomended to me by my tire shop. I was leary since I never heard of the brand, but they are extremely quiet compared to the Michelins and the handling is far better. If I could only sell my OEM rims!! lol |

Replying to: chrisa222 (Aug 28, 2009 8:16 am) Not sure where you live, but if you get snow in the winter time...you may want to keep your OEM wheels and put them on in the winter time and then you won't have to worry about messing up your aftermarket wheels. Just a thought. P.S. The N3000's are really good in wet weather too!!! |

Replying to: allmet33 (Aug 28, 2009 8:27 am) Are the Nexan and/or Lexani import tires??? Do they make 17" tires?

Replying to: allmet33 (Aug 28, 2009 8:27 am) I was under the impression that the 7000s are all-season, and that the 6000s are the summer-only tires. At least I hope that is the case, since I live in CT and we get some nasty winters! haha.

Replying to: 101649 (Aug 29, 2009 3:01 am) About Nexen Tire In regards to your other question, yes...they do make 17" tires. |

Replying to: chrisa222 (Aug 29, 2009 10:30 am) If one were interested in long tread life, the N5000 comes with a 60k treadwear mileage warranty, on top of being an ultra high performance all-season tire. However, I can vouch for the N3000's as being tires you don't leave on for the winter (unless you deal with mild winters). I have a slight incline to drive up to get into my neighborhood and one winter with about 2 inches of snow on the streets, I couldn't make it up the incline. So...I simply put my OEM wheels on in the winter which extends tire life & limits the chance of messing a rim up by sliding into a curb or something. |

| I put on a set of Pirelli P-zero nero's and I could not be happier. They seem to be make less road noise and the ride seems slightly better overall. I would recommend them. | |

I have had the Goodyear GT's on now for about 7,500 miles. (have about 63K total of 07 Azzy Ltd.). They offer superior traction and handling on both wet and dry pavement. They are clearly stiffer than the original Michelins. Not quite as cushy a drive. I do think the Michelins got slightly better gas mileage, maybe .3 mpg over the Goodyears, but my overall mpg remains decent at 24.7mpg in all around driving. So far, (one rotation) virtually no wear apparent. I like having the higher speed rating than the Altimax HP. These are W rated, even though I will never be going that fast.

Replying to: jaymagic (Aug 31, 2009 3:43 pm) I think the trend we are seeing is that almost any above average tires are better than the OEM Michelins that come on the Azera, and...folks are consistent in reporting that the ride, handling and comfort are improved.
