That Nexen is a horrible tire, probably best suited to trailer use. Either choice is still a low performance tire. I would still go with one of the 205/70-14XL alternatives just as the factory did 87 and later.

Any reasons to choose one over the other:  Nexen SV820 or Hankook RA08? Nexen is a little less expensive, but not dramatically so.   BTW, both are available at WalMart, if ordered online.  Only Nexen if you go to the store.  Hankook but not Nexen is available at Discount Tire.  I do prefer to do business with Discount over WalMart.   Thanks, mcneely
