Nexen N3000 anyone have these? are they summer performance or all season? from the tread i would say summer but im not sure? any opinions would be great thanks!
I have these in 275/40/17 on the front of my z for over a year now and I have been very happy with them. I live in FL, so they never see ice or snow, but they are great as front tires! Don't know if they would hook as rears, I have 315/30/18 yokohama's out back. Hope that helps!

yeah i paid 79 plus shipping so it wasnt too bad...they seem like they would be good daily driver tires in the summer and would work ok for some redlight sprints...i heard though from my buddy that nexens dont burn very well, he told me that when he spins em they hardly ever leave a mark...might just be him but i dont want to say hes wrong since i never used em yet
too all that posted...i got these tires year and a half ago put on the back of my car. i then drove home hour drive on i80, but the hole time idrove with white nuckles!!! it felt like my rear had no phb and was missing a control arm. when i got home i put them on the front and drove a week till i got my dr's on the backthey felt fine up front. i still dont trust em have any body else had this problem? feels like they have no sidewall???

just got some off ebay, i needed 2 new rears, and being broke and for $130 for 275/40/17 i couldnt beat it. i have only 8 miles on the car since install though lol... but i like how they look, it was 30* outside when i took the car out last weekend (dont drive it in winter) they hooked ok but very easy to break them loose. it might have been the cold though, well see in the summer
I just got a set of 4 (275/40R/17), and they seem to be doing the job pretty well...I paid about 320 for all four (If you guys are getting 'em 75 bucks a piece, I just got ripped!), they're nice, but not as nice as my old Falkens.
