I recently bought Lexani tires for my balt and Id have to say, I am impressed with the quiet ride and handling on my car.

at 65$ each, I cant ask for more. Very nice tire.

By the way...NEXEN makes these tires. anyone have thoughts on these or tried them?

No rubbing issues? I had a set of Nexen N7000's for a while and they were pretty good. Are yours the ones with the tread pattern like the Nexen N3000?

i had a set of Lexani tires and absolutely loved them. they were the best tires i ever owned on my 06 SS

miked5426

nope. no rubbing at all, even with my trunk and backseat filled with books. (distributor sales for work)

Im not sure what pattern the nexen had?

miked5426

Lx9100

thanks
I'm tempted to order a set of 4 but I have the TC and not the SC Cobalt.
I'm wondering if I should stick to factory size tires at 225/40 18's.
Will the 235 or 245's be too wide for my wheels on the TC?
Also how many miles do you have on yours?
I'm hoping these might last 25-30k miles.

i just bought my tires two weeks ago, so i only have about 1,000 miles on them. I dont know about the TC but the 245/40/18 fit nice on my SC with no rubbing at all.
it rained yesterday and today, and I tell ya, the traction is unbelievable on the wet roads. I was pushing 90Mph at times in steady rainfall. VERY IMPRESSED
AT LEAST, compared to the no name tires I had before. they were terrible in every aspect (BCT tires)
for 64.94 each, these LEXANI Tires are a steal.....period

I got these tires as well, mostly becasue im cheap. ran them two seasons so far, and happy with them.

miked5426

thats a rip off. i bought 4, shipped to my door for 329 and change. shipping was like 60$

discountwheelwarehouse.com they may not have the tires listed. just call them. 64.94 was the price i got.

I found them also on discountwheelwarehouse.com for $59.67 each (225/40 18)
and then total shipping is $70.12

So the total was $308.80
I just ordered them.

miked5426

wow. u gota better deal then i did from them two weeks ago. but, i have 245/40/18 so i think mine are like 5 bucks more a tire.

09silverSSS

I got them put on last Thursday and have put on a few hundred miles on them.
So far I love them. They seem to have pretty good grip taking off. I haven't driven in the rain with them yet though.

You put these on the stock SS/SC wheels? No rubbing issues or anything, how do they drive in the rain?

Cyco

i was wondering if you put the 245/40/18's on your stock rims?

s1lver

sweet. was in need of some new 18's. thanks. just ordered a set for 306 shipped.

miked5426

yep...got em on my stock rims. no rubbing at all!

09silverSSS

I put the 225's on my stock wheels SS/TC.
Now I wish I would have gone 235 or 245.

Hey miked5426,

Can you take a pic of how yours covers the wheel. My 225's fit good but no lip overhang to protect rim from curbs.

miked5426

certainly... ill get ya a pic today or tomorrow.

Does going up to 245 help w/traction much?

For those of you wanting pics of 245/40's on stock rims,

09silverSSS

Very nice. Thanks for the pics.
