Anyone Try 20" Nexen Roadian HP Tires???

I am going to yank the crappy Bridgestones off in a few weeks and replace with an all-season. I know the Yoko's seem good based on the forum feedback as well as the Michelin Latitudeand Pirelli Scorpion STR. These caught my eye since you can get them in either a "H" or "V" rating and they are inexpensive. I like the tread pattern as it looks like it would work well in the snow. Anyone know much about Nexen tires or are they junk? HEre are the specs:

-109V Load Rating
-460AA Tread Rating

AFAIK, it is a Korean tire(tyre) tire company. I have used Kumho and like their tires for the 'B4B' (bang for the buck) factor. I've never used Hankook or Nexen yet. Kumho makes racing tires and is famous for it. That's why I tried Kumho tires. Besides, tirerack.com recommends them.

However, I would be cautious about Nexen tires because, in general, if tirerack.com (even discounttire.com) does not carry certain tires, it usually means that the said tires are not proven in the market yet. You certainly could be a pioneer of trying it and let people here know how you like it.
