these are good tires, dont get me wrong. i had purchased these tires based on the picture showing somewhat of a low profile tire. now, they arrived pretty quick; only 2 days. when they were installed i was disappointed to see they were NOT low profile, hence the low Meets Expectations mark. again, if you plan to purchase...these are NOT low profile tires.

The profile depends on the size of the tire,

IF you want a low profile tire you need to order the correct size. The first number ie 215 is the width in mm, the middle number ie 45 means the height is 45percent of the width, and the end number ie 16 is rim size. If you want low pro's order the correct size.

Tire Size Determines Low Profile
Posted 05/02/2012
I agree the picture is likely a stock photo of a certain size tire, it won't change for every size. However, if you want low-profile you need to determine the tire size you consider low profile. The sidewall height is approximately the first number of the tire (in millimeters) multiplied by the second number as a percentage so height for 215/56R15 is 215*0.65~=140 mm or 5 1/2 inches, definitely not low-profile on a 16 inch rim.

These tires exceeded my expectations. I was leery on getting these tires from a brand I had not heard of, but when researching I saw a favorable amount of reviews on multiple websites. I believe the negative comments are due to individual tire issues and/or workmanship install issues.
These tires give me a quieter and smoother ride than my Toyota Corolla's factory Goodyear EAGLE RS-A tires. A LOT better!!
This tire has a 60k pro-rated warranty where my originals had only 'workmanship' warranty.
I also bought the $10/tire road hazard warranty and already had a construction-zone created flat which was covered.

We bought these tires at Walmart less then a month ago. They seem to handle good in the rain and ride quiet. I would give them a five star rating but don't know how long they will last. Only time will tell.

The Nexen tires I bought in March of 2013 have not made me Happy Happy Happy. I bought these tires for a 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis and they ride "hard", kind of like Fred Flintstone rock tires. They don't grab the road and they have a persistent small vibration. It's really a shame that you can't test drive tires. I do not reccomend these tires for anyone.

Superb Tire

I was researching the best tires at the lowest price when I came across the Nexen brand. At first I figured they were just a cheap tire, low quality. Then as I read the specs and all the reviews, I became really interested so I checked the background of the company. To make a long story short, I ordered 4 tires for my daughter's 2002 Honda Accord about 2 months ago. They arrived at the local Wal-Mart in about 3 days and they immediately installed them. She has gone through 2 snowstorms and an ice event with no problem at all !! She said her Honda has never handled that well in snow and ice with previous tires! !! Best $62 tire I have ever seen!! I would order a set for my Buick but, so far, can't find my size on line.

I used these tires to replace the original tires on a Nissan Altima. These tires provided far better handling and traction than the originals. They initially produced slightly more road noise but after a couple trips the road noise doesn't seem any more than on the originals.

These tires are terrible in winter and also they offer a harsh ride and a lot of road noise and seem to wear fast. When i Switched to Bridgestone serenity Plus the ride and everything else was twice as wetter.

New tires for my Mimi Cooper S

After 23,000 miles my Mimi needed new tires. The Mini dealer recommended a set of replacement Dunlop tires for a price of $1,500! I had a good experience with Nexan on a 5-series and went looking on the net for Nexan tires for the Mini, Walmart popped-up.
I bought the tires on-line, and they were delivered to a local Walmart, a few days later. I was very impressed with the entire transaction - simple! The technicians were great and took care not to damage the rims, great customer focus!
The tires have a great ride and a nice look. I would highly recommend the Nexan and Walmart for the purchase - all-in I saved $1,000 over the Mini dealer!

I'm driving 09 honda accrod. 55000 miles on it. Time to change tires now so i decided to surf around. Honda installed Michelin tires which i found about $210 average. Finally i decide to give try and purchase 4 of this tires and i'm glad now that i did. Its been 3 days now and i feed really good drive. My car was too noisy before but now its very quite. I do not write reviews after purchasing any product but this might help lot other people to decide which one is better for their money.
Next month i'm going to buy for my wife's car (honda pilot).

excellent tire for the price. very quiet and smooth. not bad looking either. only gripe is that Nexen has zero customer service skills, at least do not try to email them as they do not reply but this is not taken into considering for the review. Great tire, questionable service.

Put these on my Bonneville 6 months ago at first they road a little hard over bumps and potholes but after break in (about 3 weeks) they soften up a little and now you can hardly feel the bumps. These tires hold the road and respond like a sports tire. They wear like iron and still look hardly used and are great on long trips. They produce little to no road noise even at 75mph and ride like a touring tire. I am buying this brand for my SUV because you cannot beat the price and the performance. I would buy these tires again.

tires are nice and quiet and hug the road good. the only thing i didnt care for was the 8$ charge per tire to balance them at the store. i always thought balanceing was part of the mounting process. who knew.

CAR: 2004 Acura TSX. Purchased this car used at a dealership and they had put these tires on them. Lasted me three years, and today went and got them again, and they ride great. Driven them cross country twice and through thick snow and over 100 degree temps, no problem so far. Researched other brands, but nothing beats the price. Also, very very quiet. My exact size was the 215/50R17.

All I can said if you drive in the least amount of snow or ice I would consider a different tire. Nexen should not have rated this an all season tire in my opion. Would have been better advertised as a summer seasonal tire. Tires had no traction in the snow or ice with my car, had good traction on dry pavement fair on wet pavement. I had purchase a $300 set of Douglas tires for my other car from Walmart a few weeks earlier, for me a better tire for the money. Walmart is a great place to purchase tires and have your oil chages done!
