Nexen has confirmed production in both South Korea and China, as well as the Czech Republic. A US sales presence or R&D center is not evidence of a US tire assembly plant in the cited network. [1] [2]

Same factory, different label

Nexen’s corporate identity and factory network do not establish that its tires are rebranded products of another tire company. Model-level shared production or design equivalence is not public in the reviewed sources in these sources. [1] [2] [3]

Where was your tire made?

A company address and a country of manufacture answer different questions. Start with your exact model.

  1. Read both sidewalls for the country-of-origin marking.
  2. Record the complete DOT tire identification number and date code.
  3. Check the specific size and production batch rather than another tire from the same brand.
