Nexen N'Priz AH8

OVERVIEW

The Nexen N'Priz AH8 is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. It has some high performance sizes as well. Nexen offers a 70,000 mile treadwear warranty with this tire model.

The all season tire promotes excellent all weather traction with the symmetric tread design and the all season tire compound. They work together to grip the road firmly in dry, wet and even in winter weather conditions. The four wide circumferential grooves and detailed siping design prevent hydroplaning situations by eliminating water from beneath the tire footprint. The enhanced water evacuation and superb all weather traction provide great driving safety all year round.

The model's reinforced internal structure features twin steel belts spirally wound with nylon. This improves the tire's durability as it maintains the optimal tire shape at all times. The tire does not deform under the driving pressure, which enables it to perform to its utmost capability. The optimized tire shape also boosts the comfort levels. The tire's maintained shape enables it to closely follow the road surface, which lowers the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin.

The tire is effortless to handle in all weather conditions. The symmetric tread pattern design, with the detailed siping design and the lateral grooves, and the tire's internal structure increase the driving stability and the steering responsiveness and precision. The maintained tire shape and excellent road grip stabilize the tire against the driving pressure affecting it. They also make the steering responsiveness quicker and more accurate to the driver's instructions. The better steering and stability make the tire easier to control in all weather conditions.

The N'Priz AH8's specially designed tread pattern sports a uniform tread block position and rigid shoulder tread block design. These work together and create friction at the moment of braking which ensures a shortened braking distance. This tread pattern design, with the lateral grooves and siping design, prevents irregular tread wear from forming across the tread area. This prevents premature wear across the tread area and lengthens the tire's usability significantly.

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.
