Pros, cons & observations
Themes extracted from owner reviews across retailers and review sites — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.
The Nexen CP641 is a polarizing budget-tier tire that receives mixed reviews, primarily praised for its exceptional tread longevity and value-for-money proposition. While many users appreciate its dry-weather comfort and quiet ride, a significant portion of the user base reports poor wet-weather performance, including hydroplaning and a lack of steering confidence.
Pros
- Excellent tread life and durability
- High value for money compared to premium brands
- Generally comfortable ride quality
- Good dry-weather traction
Cons
- Poor wet-weather grip and braking performance
- High levels of road noise reported by many users
- Inconsistent quality control, including reports of sidewall cracking and belt separation
- Lack of steering feedback and confidence during aggressive maneuvers
Observations
- Users with heavier or performance-oriented vehicles (e.g., Celica GT-Four, Turbo Rover) noted a lack of confidence and 'twitchy' handling at the limit.
- Drivers of family vehicles like the Nissan Qashqai and Renault Scenic reported higher satisfaction regarding comfort and noise levels compared to those with sportier setups.
- The tire is directional, which some users noted as a limitation for rotation patterns.
The Nexen CP671 is generally regarded as a durable, budget-friendly tire that offers reliable grip in both wet and dry conditions. While users appreciate its longevity and consistent handling, the experience is often tempered by noticeable road noise and structural aging issues over time.
Pros
- Impressive tread longevity and lifespan
- Reliable traction in both wet and dry weather
- Predictable and stable handling characteristics
Cons
- Significant road noise and cabin roar
- Directional tread pattern complicates tire rotation
- Tendency for rubber cracking as the tire ages
Observations
- Demonstrated strong durability on compact diesel vehicles, achieving 30,000 miles with remaining tread depth.

How do we compare tires?
Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements) normalized against the best tire in each test and weighted toward recent tests. 40% comes from thousands of owner reviews collected from retailers and review sites. When a tire has only one of the two, we use what exists and say so.
Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
