Talking Nexen N3000 - Anyone use these?

Hi guys, anyone uses Nexen N3000 here?

I'm thinking about it, good price but how's the handling? lots of tire noise? I do not track my S2k, only casual crusing in the summer.

I have them on my civic and have been on for about 2 yrs now. If you're casually cruising then I don't think you should have any issues with these.

They're good bang for the buck. I brought them to track many many times, no problems.

Pick up something half decent, I think it's important to have a good summer tire on a car that handles like this.

you might as well be driving a convertible sunfire if you don't care about performance. no offense

So what would you guys suggest that's half decent but good bang for the buck?

I'm looking for 18" if someone's selling used:
225/40/18
255/35/18

I should add I never put Nexens on an S2000, only on old car, but they're not exactly worse out there.

HTRZ3 would be great bang for buck as well.
