Great seller, this specific tire has an achilles heel though
Review for Nexen Winguard Winspike 3 205/55R16XL 94T BSW
"This is the third time buying here in the last year, have a flawless experience each time. This particular Nexen tire though... I initially got this tire model from a local tire chain, had vibration issues on 3 of the 4 tires, that being variation with a road force balancer. I ended up getting money back from the manufacturer to get replacement tires. Those replacements I got from tireseasy... and they vibrate, but not outside the manufacturers spec. So at least this particular winguard winspike 3 from Nexen I'd stay away from if you want a smooth ride. They do handle well and good traction in the snow, so for the main purpose of a tire they work well. A summer set (pirelli's) I got from tireseasy also had one tire way out of spec on vibration. THIS company is good though, I called in the problem and they replaced it with no problem, they called in a pick up for the old one and sent a new one the next day. THIS IS PROPER SERVICE, and why I'll be continuing to use tireseasy in the future."
