The two tyres brought head-to-head for comparison are the Linglong Sport Master and the Nexen N fera Sport. Both of these ultra-high-performance tyres are extensively used in summer conditions and come with a specific set of strengths and weaknesses according to various tyre tests.
The Linglong Sport Master, manufactured by Linglong, is well-regarded for its short braking distances, dynamic handling behaviour in all weather conditions, and good lateral guidance. Its strongest feature, according to Autobild's tests, is reduced exterior noise. However, it faces critique for its very low kilometre performance and somewhat hesitant dry handling performance. Our rating for this model sits at a considerable 72%.
Now moving on to its competitor, the Nexen N fera Sport. Manufactured in the Czech Republic, this tyre comes as first equipment on the BMW 2-series Active Tourer. It brings to the table short dry braking distances, a low rolling resistance, and excellent hydroplaning reserves. However, its handling behaviour leaves some room for improvement according to Autobild's tests. This tyre also tends to understeer and displays average kilometre performance. Its strength lies in the reduced exterior noise, similar to the Linglong Sport Master. Our ratings for the Nexen N fera Sport is slightly lower at 67%.
When it comes to their positions in the tests, they differ quite notably. Out of 50 tyres tested, the Linglong Sport Master ranked 7th which is an excellent score. In comparison, the Nexen N fera Sport placed itself on the 14th position, performing decently but unable to surpass its competitor in this regard.
In conclusion, both tyres show strong performances in their respective fields. The Linglong Sport Master shines with its superior handling and short braking distances while the Nexen N fera Sport impresses with its hydroplaning reserves and low rolling resistance. However, given its superior rating and test position, the Linglong Sport Master seems to have a slight edge over its competitor.
