Nexen N5000 225/50 R18

The summer tire Nexen N5000 is distinguished by its versatile capabilities. For example, in the North American market, this model is positioned by the South Korean manufacturer as all-season. This has quite weighty reasons in the form of excellent resistance to aquaplaning and a tread with an increased number of gripping edges.

Excellent stability at high speed

A characteristic feature of the directed design of the tread of this tire is the solid construction of all three longitudinal ribs, located in its central part. Due to this, it demonstrates fast and accurate responses to steering wheel turns, stability at high speed, as well as reduced rolling resistance.

Directional drainage grooves against the direction of movement

The tread ribs are separated from each other by wide drainage grooves. They serve as a kind of accumulators for water. It is removed beyond the tread through a network of diagonal grooves. This process occurs with high intensity not only due to their large number. All these grooves are located at an angle and against the direction of movement, which gives them excellent performance.

Protected rim construction

Another distinguishing feature of this model is the reinforced rim construction. In addition to the additional layer, it is distinguished by an optimized shape, which reliably protects the tire rim, as well as the wheel disk, from external mechanical impact. This significantly increases reliability when operating in urban environments.

Main features of the Nexen N5000 tire

- three solid ribs in the center increase the responsiveness of the tire, as well as the stability of its grip properties at high speed;
- directional drainage grooves against the direction of movement improve resistance to aquaplaning;
- the optimized construction of the tire rim gives it increased reliability when operating in urban environments;
- the multi-step arrangement of the tread blocks in the shoulder areas reduces the noise level;
- the two-layer tread provides softness on the go without compromising handling and traction;
- the side walls of the longitudinal drainage grooves are located at an angle, which increases the directional stability.
