According to Nexen, the N7000 was developed to “provide all-weather traction while minimizing compromizes in dry and wet road handling,” and is targeting sports cars, coupes and sedans that require year-round performance.
The tire features a jointless full cap ply for high speed steering, stability and durability; an optimized steel belt contour system; high tensile bead wire and bead profile for lower sidewall stiffness; a rigid shoulder block design for cornering and handling; twin center ribs for high speed stability; and circumferential and lateral grooves for water dispersal.
Sixteen of the available sizes are extra-load sizes.
