Nexen N'Priz AH5 All-Season Tire - 235/55R17 99H

2000 E150 Custom Van/ Approx 5750#.. Replaced Mich P235/75r/15 LT4 with 8/32nd tread. 1st thing I noticed was they measured 6.5" instead of 7.5" tread footprint. Mich max pres.35#, very mushy with a total of 4" more drag from extra width. These tires stand up proud at 35# {will try 38# later}, no slop roll or sway at all. Drove in Ozark hills & lane & a half goat trails here in Mo. Ice, snow, rain, wind, very impressed with all around tract & handling. Wind didn't blow van noticeably & noise was way down. I thought Mich tires were good but these were 10yrs. old & weathered, wow what an improvement with these Nexen tires. I haven't figured how these are made any different to make them have good miles, BUT with the response of the vehicle & ease of handling I expect to to improve mpg from 16 city/18 hwy ; ; ; to 18 city/ 20 hwy All around good value & a lot safer tire than the old Michs. Have been driving vans only since 1971 & have never been so comfortable with the way they handle, until now. Nexen tires have certainly stepped up the game with this one. Glad to see the white wall coming back, sure looks better than the stupid raised letter advertising. Positive & sure footed, $60 ea mounted/balanced>>>out the door...
