vs
Tires NANKANG or ADVAN
They don’t seem to have got a mention yet, but the generally accepted ‘best track tyre for lowest price’ is the Nankang NS-2R. Right at the bottom of the price range for semi-slicks so obviously it’s performance isn’t at the same level as bigger brands semi-slicks, or eve Nankang’s own AR-1s (which most agree is a genuinely good semi-slick), but performs better on track than more expensive road/summer tyres in the dry.
Pros: best track tyre, lowest price
Cons: doesn't deal well wet
Vehicle:
Toyota MR2
I’ll probably end up with another set of Nankang AR-1s next.
Pros: good performance
Vehicle:
Porsche

I have nankang ar1s on my mclaren 12c. Great track tire
Pros: great track tire
i have them too. they run skinny and stretch well. they are a little noisy though.
Pros: stretch well, run skinny
Cons: a little noisy
I had both ns2 and 512 on my 17x9 both were 205/45. The nankangs were decent but didn't give me the stretch I wanted like the falkens
Pros: decent tires
Cons: less stretch than Falken
I had Nankangs once. The only negative reviews I read just pointed out the excessive road noise. They drove me absolutely ****ing insane the entire time I had them on my car.
Cons: excessive road noise
My nankangs stretched pretty well. However, They suck in the rain. Like, scary bad. But you can do crazy burn-outs, because they don't grip for sh!t. You get what you pay for, in this case unfortunately.
Pros: stretched pretty well
Cons: suck in the rain
