On our 2011 the rears have nexen these were on when we purchased it a few months back and while the tread is good in between them is cracking badly and will be getting replaced with a pair of scorpions.

t5pete i had this on a set the fronts did exactly the same (I had proof of purchase) they were 1 year old lots of tred left. i contacted Nexen directly with photos and proof of purchase and they organized free replacement for me.

have not tried Nfera but a few years ago the Nexen Roadion was a popular choice.

I have the Rodians on the front at the moment had to fiddle with TP but they seem ok. The rears are my issue x2 different brands and wear level so they are going.

The reviews by magazines who do tyre tests don't read great for this tyre. Also unless you put on the Porsche tyre you won't be getting the Porsche tyre What I mean is that there are huge difference between tyres not only when having a different size but also when having the different OEM marking on them.

Objective test reviews are really the only way to choose if you’re interested in how tyres perform (and even then, there are huge variables) - most subjective user reviews are worse than useless. |

Agreed. And even then, tyres can perform very different in different sizes hence those tests by reputable organisations like ADAC will include the sizes tested. |

Bl4ckD0g having x2 different brand on the same axle is not good in my world which is why they have gone!!

My old L322 has a new set of OE Scorpion Zeros and they certainly aren’t noisy. |

I’m sorry but that is simply not correct. A Porsche OEM spec does not respresent the same as the none Porsche spec. There are differences hence the markings.

so i am just posting an update of my findings so far with the Nfera's now i have all 4 wheels shod in the same summer tyre from Nexen. I will add i am no tyre expert and do not profess to be and i have no scientific way to say they give me the same stopping grip this is based on my personal experience so far nothing more.
