vs
Tires NANKANG or Achilles
Achilles ATR Sport’s were the old model now they have the ACHILLES STREETHAWK. $50 tires super grippy and long lasting
Pros: super grippy, long lasting
Cons: burn them off quick
I've used the brand Nankang for a while they are cheap and i find them really good for a budget tyre
Pros: really good, budget tyre
Cons: cheap
If you don't care about money and want the fastest tire get the nankang crs v2s.
Pros: fastest tire
Currently on Achilles... ok naman siya. Sustained 100-140 kph sa express way going to Batangas. Nalubak ba pa nga sa Nasugbu hiway, no damage to rims or tires. Medyo maingay nga lang.
Pros: no damage to rims
Cons: medyo maingay nga lang
I usually go for Nankang SW-8, as they are really cheap for how good they feel.
Pros: cheap, good feel
Vehicle:
Toyota MR2
I swapped out the primacy's with nankang ns-20s and I feel like the car is less responsive. For instance, when quickly changing lanes on the freeway I feel like the ride is more spongy. They're way better for traction, but I feel less agile.
Pros: better for traction
Cons: less responsive, more spongy
I have Nakang NS2 in the front of my Alfa Romeo Brera. The Brera demands a lof of from front tires, they wear pretty well and have pretty decent grip (not great).
The thing is, you may like or not like, they have a soft construction. So you are more on the confortable side, but roll a bit more on corners and give you less steering feedback than a better tire like Michelin PSS.
Pros: wear pretty well, decent grip
Cons: soft construction, less feedback
Vehicle:
Alfa Romeo Brera
My buddy has them on the rears of his FBO 335i right now. They're not terrible for basic to spirited street driving. They can't handle any power at all though.
Pros: not terrible for driving
Cons: can't handle power
Vehicle:
BMW
Those tires are death traps in snow and ice. No sipes, no studs, hard compound... You're going to be on hockey pucks.
Cons: death traps in snow, hard compound
Generally the folks I 4x4 with tend to avoid cheap small company tires like Radar, Atturo, and Nankang because some of em have had bad luck balancing them, even after spinning it on the rim. The quality control of the small companies isn't up to par with someone like Nitto or BFG so you get what you pay for.
Cons: bad balancing, poor quality control
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Silverado
