Nankang NS2

These tyres are a genuine false economy!! They have decent grip in both wet and dry, but tyre noise got so bad I had 2 wheel bearings replaced before realosing it was the TYRES. Replaced with Pirelli P6000s and massive difference and not that much more expensive!

Good buy for its price.

Worst ever tires! i found myself skidded on a dry road condition on a traffic junction! used 5000km and i trade it off. very dangerous tire. if u cherish your life, please look for other option.

I live in new york city,US of A. I have numerous amount of tires through the years and for the price this is pretty good tyre. I currently havre them on about 4 sets of wheels 16 tyres in all no complaints. I even use them on the snow, I drive an S4 so to put summer tyres in the snow I put them on to have fun. Nankangs are a cool tyre IMO.

I'm running 265/35/18 on the rear and 245/40/18 on the front. Mainly wet driving so far and despite the fact that my 540 has a supercharger fitted and puts out over 400bhp these tryes have performed unbelievably well. They very nearly caught me out on entry to the first spirited bend as they turned in on a wet road like they were on rails. Full throttle exits from wet bends have yet to unstick them.

If you have any doubts about buying these tyres then no need to worry, a superb tyre at a stupid price.

got them on a 300+ bhp impreza, great in the dry, get to throw the car around (on track days of course) in thw et they do loose grip when playing but you know when its going so just let off,
done 14k on the set and about to get another set as just about to hit the limit,
for all these that say no grip in wet??? how are you driving?? and the bloke who says he spent 8k on repairs on a skoda?? what did you do you can get a re-shell for 2 grand lol

learn to drive we'll all be safer

Spot on for the money two fitted at £90 can't grumble..Just got 9000 miles out of the last ones on my Fabia VRS with roughly another 1000 miles left.. Have thrown the car about in dry and wet conditions and never let me down. Loong haul up to newcastle earlier in year and they go nice and sticky :D

Love the people who complain about these tyres saying they cost them x amount to fix their cars because THEY crashed...Learn to drive to the conditions of the road, any tire will let go if you drive like a pleb.

I've had countless sets of these tyres on my car for the last 80k I've done over almost 4 years. I once tried another tyre and the rear of the car felt really really loose and I had no confidence in the tyres at all.

With the NS2's fitted I feel the car is really well planted on the road in the wet or dry. Never had a 4 wheel drift on them. I drive hard and fast when the mood is right and they never let me down. On long journey's the road noise isn't noticeable and my car is lowered on coil overs with poly bushes fitted all round. We drove 3000 miles to Spain and back and it was a pleasure to drive on French motorways at 80mph (legally!)

My golf does seem to wear the inside edge of the rear before the rest of the tyre, but I've been told this is pretty normal with 225 tyres

These tyres are pretty useless in the snow though, but I doubt there is anything worth trying in a 225/40 size. I haven't got stuck yet, but there are times when didn't know if I'd get up those hills lol!

The price seems to be going up all the time on these. Last set I bought I'm sure it was £200 for 4, but now I see £240 :(

One of the biggest mistakes i've made. Cost me close to 8k pounds on repairs because the car doesn't brake on these tyres. The tyres don't hold the road while braking. Absolutely no traction while braking. Moved onto michelin ps3 and braking improved tremendously.

Cheap and wear reasonably well about 45,000km. grips great for dry and ok in wet. probably cause i have them to hard.
