Nexen Winguard Winsport 2 215/50R17 95V XL Black Wall Winter / Snow Tire

Product Overview

The Nexen Winguard Winsport 2 (215/50R17) is crafted for severe winter driving conditions, providing maximum safety, grip, and braking confidence on sub-freezing asphalt, compacted snow, and ice. Formulated with a specialized low-temperature silica compound, the tread remains pliable in bitter cold where standard tires stiffen.

Manufactured under stringent quality standards, the Nexen Winguard Winsport 2 combines proven engineering with modern compounding to ensure miles of dependable service and driving confidence.

Key Features & Performance Highlights

• Cold-Weather Silica Compound: Remains flexible below 45°F (7°C) for optimal rubber-to-ice contact.
• Dense 3D High-Density Sipes: Interlocking sipes create thousands of micro-biting edges for exceptional traction on ice and hard-packed snow.
• Directional Deep Grooves: Rapidly channel slush and freezing water away from the contact patch to prevent hydroplaning.
• Durable Cold-Resistant Carcass: XL rated (4-ply) radial architecture engineered for stable winter touring.
• Consistent Mileage Longevity: Optimized contact patch promotes even, slow treadwear for extended tire life.
