Nexen N5000 Platinum

OVERVIEW

The Nexen N5000 Platinum is a performance and high performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. Nexen offers a 70,000 mile treadwear warranty with V and H speed rated sizes, and a 55,000 mile treadwear warranty with W speed rated sizes of this model.

The tire offers great all season traction. The all season compound and the detailed ribbed tread design enhance the tire’s dry, wet, and winter weather grip. They provide excellent grip on the road surface with extra biting edges, while the compound keeps its rubber flexibility on versatile temperatures. Circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning in wet conditions.

The tread’s consistent surface contact upgrades controllability. The tread design greatly upgrades its steering responsiveness and driving stability at all times. Faster and more precise steering response to the driver’s commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. The shoulder blocks firmly grip the road with extra biting edges, optimizing cornering. The structure and the heat-resistant compound allow the tire to greatly upgrade the high speed durability.

The stable footprint and durable compound work together to increase its service life. The ribbed pattern’s even pressure circulation avoids irregular wear formations. Stronger compound elements effectively lower the treadwear rate. This combination avoids premature and uneven wear, which significantly boosts the tire’s tread life.

The N5000 Platinum also offers a fuel-efficient drive. The stronger traction and better road contact lower the tire’s rolling resistance, which minimizes the vehicle’s needed fuel consumption levels. In this manner, the tire lowers the vehicle’s fuel intake and CO2 emission levels, promoting a fuel-conscious and environmentally friendly driving experience.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
