Nexen tires?

Has anyone had expirience with these tires? I had a tiburon before and the tib forum people swear they are the best bang for the buck. I am still using the stock tires I got with the car (wheels are G-Game 77S), but early next year I want to get some more aggressive looking tires. It's a daily driver, I don't race, Auto X. I just need some tires that get good treadwear, look nice and don't make a lot of noise.

i've had a set of the NexenN3000 for my grand prix, my friend also had a set of them after my good experience.
two huge thumbs up for them.
great price point, great traction and wear patterns too

There was nothing fancy about my tibby. It was just a black 04 gt. In some aspects I liked the tibby more than the SI. The Tibby looks more exotic and mean. But the Civic beats it in everything else. Plus the tibby 100k warranty is a joke. Now i just need to find someone who sells Nexen tires not on ebay.
