I have 4 nexen N3000's on my 93 bmw 325is, I like them, but i've only had them on a few thousand miles. there quiet, pretty good in the rain and on dry pavement, but they are hilarious in the snow. I have 215/40/17's and theres only about 2 inches of rubber between the rim and road and the bmw is rear wheel drive, so with an inch of snow you can do donuts all day. Anyways, they seem to be a pretty good tire especially for the price, i got mine on ebay for around $275 shipped which is def. cheap for 4 zr rated, 17 inch, low profile tires, and very fast shipping.
Used to have the N5000 ones on my Lexus sc300. Very pleased with them, nice grip even in rainy condition, very quiet compare to most other brandname tires (had bridgestone turanza before I switched them on). and yes the price is very appealing too, got them from edgeracing, awesome deal, fast shipping.
I'm currently running the N5000's and I'm pleased so far. I've had no issues during this past winter and in CO we've been getting plenty of snow. I snowboard and they have even performed well on mountain passes. They are quiet on dry roads and handled pretty good at an autocross event I did last summer. I'd recommend them.
