Nexen is a fast-growing Korean tire manufacturer increasingly used as OE on Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis vehicles. We stock the Winguard Ice Plus (winter) and N Priz AH8 (all-season) at 111 42 Ave SW.

Why Calgary drivers choose Nexen

Nexen is one of the fastest-growing Korean tire brands — they supply OE tires to Hyundai, Kia, Genesis, and increasingly to Mazda. For Calgary drivers, that translates into solid daily-driver value with quiet ride and competent grip.

The Winguard Ice Plus is Nexen's 3PMSF-rated winter tire — meets Alberta's winter-tire law and handles -25°C cold soaks. The N Priz AH8 is a quiet all-season touring tire popular on Hyundai Sonatas and Kia Optimas on Deerfoot commutes.

Nexen sits in the price band between Kumho (cheaper) and the Japanese brands (more expensive). Same install standard as any premium tire — balance, torque, TPMS reset. Book installation or call (403) 452-4283.

How Nexen performs in Calgary

Nexen is the brand we see most often as OE on Hyundai and Kia vehicles coming off Calgary dealer lots. When replacement time hits, sticking with Nexen makes sense — the Winguard Ice Plus handles the -25°C January cold and meets Alberta's winter-tire law. The N Priz AH8 covers the all-season lane for Sonata and Optima daily drivers running Deerfoot, Glenmore, and Stoney commutes. Korean-engineered value at a Calgary-friendly price.

Same-day install on confirmed bookings. Price-matched against any local Calgary competitor. Book your installation or call (403) 452-4283.
