Ranked #12 of 16

The Nexen N Blue 4 Season 2 secured the 12th position out of 16 competitors, receiving a final rating of 'Satisfactory.' This tire showcased an impressive balance in dry handling, along with an outstanding mileage and cost-effectiveness that stood out positively in its performance metrics. Notably, it achieved the best scores in the disciplines of mileage and price-value ratio, underscoring its long-term value and affordability. However, the tire was critiqued for its moderate aquaplaning reserves and a tendency to understeer on wet and snowy surfaces, which could dampen its appeal for drivers in regions prone to heavy rain or snowfall. Despite these drawbacks, its short braking distances on dry roads were commended, hinting at reliable performance in certain conditions.
