Nexen 275/40 R20 106W N'Fera RU5 2024

Nexen N'Fera RU5 275/40 R20 106W is an SUV-oriented performance tyre designed for compatible vehicles requiring a 275 mm section width, 40-series profile and 20-inch rim. This configuration carries a 106W service description, with load index 106 corresponding to a maximum load of 950 kg per tyre and W speed rating allowing speeds up to 270 km/h under applicable conditions.

Tread Design and Steering Response

The N'Fera RU5 uses an asymmetric tread pattern developed to provide stable road contact and responsive steering. The wide 275 mm footprint and low 40-series profile support direct steering response, while the tread layout is designed to maintain controlled contact during everyday driving and higher-speed road use.

Dry-Road Handling and Cornering

The broad contact patch contributes to stable dry-road handling and cornering control. The reinforced outer tread area is designed to support lateral stability, while the low-profile construction helps deliver more immediate steering response compared with taller-profile SUV tyres.

Wet-Road Performance

The tread incorporates longitudinal grooves and water-management channels intended to evacuate water from the contact patch. Additional groove and sipe features help maintain traction on wet roads, supporting predictable braking and cornering in changing road conditions.

Highway Stability and Comfort

The 20-inch fitment and 40-series profile give the N'Fera RU5 a road-focused character suited to SUVs and crossovers requiring responsive handling. Its asymmetric tread is designed to balance highway stability, steering precision and everyday driving comfort, although actual ride quality depends on vehicle suspension, inflation pressure and road surface.

Seasonal and Road Use

The N'Fera RU5 is primarily positioned as a road-focused SUV tyre. Seasonal classification can vary between markets and individual specifications, so the exact sidewall marking should be checked on the supplied 2024 tyre before fitting, particularly where winter certification is required.

Load Capacity and Speed Rating

The 106 load index corresponds to a maximum load of 950 kg per tyre. The W speed rating corresponds to a maximum rated speed of 270 km/h, subject to the applicable load, inflation pressure and vehicle manufacturer's requirements.
