Decent tyres for casual drivers, I drove with them aggressively and they do not slip unless pushed to the extreme, make a lot of noise and vibrations when on old roads, freshly laid road feels fine.

I enjoy driving fast and cornering fast in Genting Highlands.
Changing from Re003, first thing i noticed is how comfortable this PS31 is. Side walls are significantly softer and significantly less road nice.
Bad thing is, my car lost the sharpness from the initial turn of the wheel. Not to say that this tyre is not grippy, its just that it doesnt feel as sharp as the re003,
Grip is fine during hard cornering. Just a little sad that i lost the sharpness of the re003.
Conclusion? Buy this if you touge on the weekends and daily drive the same car to work. This tyre is good considering the price.

Been using it for a while, good choice for low budget, amazing dry grip but really slippery on wet track (i have to lower the pressure to maintain optimal grip on wet surface), worn out easily(a bit softer compund maybe?), bit noisy(a lot less noise than the predecessor 123), but overall its good because of the value for money, would buy again, shred your tyre not your wallet

If your stuck with limited budget, grip level so and so...this is the tyre for you. Noisy as hell after being used 1 year. My advice if comfort is your choice then avoid choosing this tyre.

Awful very dangerous tyre no grip in the wet like driving on ice.
Average to poor in the dry.
Breaks away easily on roundabouts even in the dry if slihtly pushed.

Had used many different brands and models of tyres.
Till date, this tyre at its price is one of the best performances for me.

I somehow stuck with these tyres for 10,000 miles. They were new on the car when I bought it. The wear rate is very good, I'd guess left on the back of my car they would have done 50,000 miles plus.
The major drawback is no wet grip. I have fairly reasonable expectations of tyres on wet roads, I know there is a lot less grip available but these Nexen tyres are really poor. In a straight line they are just about acceptable but as soon as you ask them to turn and brake or accelerate at the same time there is no grip at all. Huge wheel spin in 2nd on part throttle (I'd don't have a powerful car or drive it hard). On the brakes the ABS will trigger as if you are on ice.
I've just replaced these tyres for some new mid-range ones of a different brand and the difference is huge.
