- N’PRIZ RH7 and ROADIAN HTX RH5 optimized for comfort, durability, and outdoor performance
- Tires designed to enhance core pickup capabilities with payloads of up to 700 kg
SEOUL, South Korea, January 19, 2026 - NEXEN TIRE, a leading global tire manufacturer, announced that it is supplying original equipment (OE) tires for the Musso, KG Mobility’s pickup truck.The supplied models are the N’PRIZ RH7 and the ROADIAN HTX RH5, which were designed to meet the diverse on- and off-road driving needs of pickup trucks.
The Musso must simultaneously accommodate heavy payloads and rugged driving conditions. To meet these requirements, NEXEN TIRE is supplying products engineered to maintain driving stability and structural rigidity even under repeated stress loads and payloads of up to 700 kg. These tires were developed to ensure reliable driving performance across a wide range of road surfaces.
The N’PRIZ RH7 is being supplied in 18- and 20-inch models, which are suitable for the large-diameter wheels used in higher trims. Featuring four wide circumferential grooves aligned in the direction of travel, the tire effectively evacuates water in wet conditions to prevent hydroplaning. In addition, the optimized block design enhances driving stability while providing a good balance between noise and fuel efficiency. The N’PRIZ RH7 has previously been supplied for the Rexton Sports and Rexton Sports Khan.
The ROADIAN HTX RH5 being supplied is 17 inches, which is suitable for the wheel specifications of base trims. Designed with real-world usage in mind, including carrying loads and driving long distances, it employs an optimized pattern to balance ride comfort with mileage. The widened shoulder and sidewall design improves heat dissipation and durability, while the optimized grooves and three-dimensional cross-section structures ensure a suitable driving performance for Korea’s terrain and climate conditions.
Supplying OE tires for the Musso is part of NEXEN TIRE’s broader strategy of expanding its presence in the large SUV and pickup truck segments. The company now supplies OE tires for a wide range of pickup trucks and SUVs, including the Musso, Kia Tasman, Jeep Wrangler, and Jeep Gladiator, and offers dedicated SUV and pickup truck products such as the ROADIAN HTX and ROADIAN ATX in its global markets.
“For pickup trucks like the Musso, tire performance is particularly important due to the payload requirements and diverse driving environments,” said John Bosco (Hyeon Suk) Kim, CEO of NEXEN TIRE. “By developing OE tires tailored to specific vehicle characteristics, we will continue to expand our collaborations with automakers in the multipurpose vehicle segment, which includes pickup trucks and SUVs.”
