FAQs

What does the '96V' rating on the tire mean?

The '96' is the load index, indicating the maximum load the tire can carry. 'V' is the speed rating, representing the maximum speed the tire can sustain under its load capacity. Consult your vehicle's manual for specific load and speed requirements.

How do I read the 'Wear Eye' indicator?

The 'Wear Eye' is a small visual marker on the tread. When the tread pattern wears down to the level of the 'Wear Eye', it indicates that the tire has reached its wear limit and should be replaced.

Are these tires suitable for all seasons?

The N Fera Primus is generally considered an all-season tire, offering good performance in a variety of conditions including light snow. However, for severe winter conditions, dedicated winter tires are recommended.

How often should I check my tire pressure?

It's recommended to check tire pressure at least once a month and before embarking on any long journeys, ensuring the tires are cold (not driven for at least three hours).

Can I use these tires on a different vehicle?

Only if the other vehicle's specifications match the tire's size (215/60 R17), load index (96), and speed rating (V). Always refer to your vehicle's manual for correct tire fitment.

What is the warranty on Nexen tires?

Warranty information varies by region and specific tire line. Typically, Nexen tires come with a mileage warranty and a manufacturer's defect warranty. Please consult the official Nexen Tire website or your dealer for detailed warranty terms.

Troubleshooting

Tire vibration or imbalance

Ensure tires are properly balanced by a professional technician. Check for any foreign objects lodged in the tread.

Uneven tire wear

Check tire pressure regularly and maintain correct inflation. Have wheel alignment and suspension checked by a mechanic.

Reduced wet weather performance

Verify tire pressure is correct. Ensure tread depth is adequate and grooves are free of debris. The 'Wear Eye' indicator can help assess tread condition.

Increased road noise

Road noise can be subjective and depend on road surface. Ensure tires are properly inflated and balanced. If persistent, consult a tire professional.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility: The Nexen N Fera Primus 215/60 R17 96V is designed for vehicles that specify this exact tire size and load/speed rating (96V). Always confirm your vehicle's recommended tire size, load index, and speed rating in your owner's manual or on the vehicle's door jamb sticker. Using tires with incorrect specifications can compromise safety and vehicle performance.

Installation: Professional installation by a certified tire technician is recommended. This includes proper mounting, balancing, and inflation to the manufacturer's recommended pressure. Ensure the valve stems are in good condition and the wheel is clean.

Care:

  • Tire Pressure: Regularly check tire pressure (at least monthly and before long trips) when tires are cold. Inflate to the vehicle manufacturer's recommended PSI, typically found on the driver's side doorjamb or in the owner's manual. Do not rely on the pressure listed on the tire sidewall, as this is the maximum pressure.
  • Rotation: Rotate your tires every 5,000 to 7,500 miles (or as recommended by your vehicle manufacturer) to ensure even wear and prolong their lifespan. Follow a consistent rotation pattern.
  • Alignment: Have your vehicle's wheel alignment checked periodically, especially if you notice uneven tire wear or the vehicle pulling to one side.
  • Cleaning: Clean the tires with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or petroleum-based products, which can damage the rubber.
