uksnatcher Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Not used personally but seem to get a good look in as a decent budget tyre, depends what power you will be putting thro them, if its loads then i would expect them to be not very good.Have a look on here for tyre reviews, this is the report on the Nankang NS2:http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Nankang/NS2.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSpeedy Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I ran NS2's in 215/45R17 flavour on my old W201 Benz.Good value for money 'budget' tyre. Not amazing, but not rubbish either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferny Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I've never seen a nankang tyre, and I look at a lot of tyres (probably over 700 hundred in the last ten days)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradley1500 Posted June 11, 2013 Author Share Posted June 11, 2013 Will only be running around 130hp and 160nm so not a lot of power, just wanted something better than currently on the car as it does have a tendency to wash out and under steer a lot.Was looking at Toyo T1-Rs but having just had a drive shaft snap and having to shell out £150 for a new one the purse strings are a bit tight now, that's where the Nankangs came in as they looked like a decent budget sport tyre.Just ordered 4 so fingers crossed they're alright. :)Mr Rosso, unfortunately couldn't find any Yoko's in my size as they seem to get a good write up.
