Nexen Tires: Frequently Asked Questions

Are Nexen tires a good tire brand?

Nexen tires are known for being both quality OEM and replacement tires for cars, SUVs, and light trucks. Nexen tires come in a wide range of styles and sizes to fit all any terrain or driving conditions. Their tires are long lasting, durable, and competitively priced so you can equip your vehicle with a quality tire that won’t break the bank.

Who makes Nexen tires? Who owns Nexen tires? Where are Nexen tires made?

Nexen Tire Co have been producing tires out of their plant in Yangsan, South Korea, since 1985 and out of their plant in Qingdao, China, since 2006. Their South Korea plant was opened to produce radial tires specifically, while their plant in China was opened to manufacture and develop SUV tires. Today, Nexen is one of the highest-rated tire manufacturers without a dedicated manufacturing plant in the US and exports its tires to over 120 countries. Nexen’s American headquarters is located in Richfield, Ohio, where they also house a North American tire technology center. 

Who sells Nexen tires? Where can I buy Nexen tires online?

Once there, you’ll be able to see all kinds of important information about that specific tire including dimensions and warranty specifications. If you do not see any warranty information listed under the “Specifications” tab, that tire is either out of stock or does not come with a manufacturer-provided warranty.
