Tires NANKANG or ADVAN
These are comfortable highway tires that ride SMOOTHLY and quietly. I am selling as I want to begin dune bashing so I upgraded to All-Terrain tires.
Pros: comfortable, smooth, quiet ride
Mileage: 9000 km
La driver here. I run advan v601s year around. Great performance even in the few days it rains.
Pros: great performance
Vehicle:

Nankang AR1’s are absolutely amazing but I wouldn’t recommend driving on them in anything but completely dry weather as they’re basically a road legal semi slick.
Pros: absolutely amazing
Cons: poor in wet weather
I just put on a set of Nankang Greensport Eco Plus 165/60R12. Reviews seem to be all over the place but I've been happy with them so far, including in some recent rain. My area doesn't get snow at all so I can't comment on that.
Pros: good in rain
Cons: untested in snow
I've been buying my nankang tires directly from the EU branch: https://www.nankang.eu/ Fast shipping.
Pros: fast shipping
I tried the Nankang CR-S V2 to see if it’s any good. On the road, noise levels are good for this kind of tire, nothing to complain about. Also, driving normally, it handles rain without having issues. That being said, I don’t know if I can say that they handled my last trackday particularly well.
Once they are up to temp and I figured out the correct pressures, the balance was very neutral and it had immense amounts of grip. My laptimes were fast and consistent. So far, so good.
The day came to an early end though, due to a puncture on the front left tire. I am not sure what was the cause of this, but this is the only tire I ever had where it happened. Maybe it’s just really bad luck, but again, I’ve never had that happen with any other tire I used. Don’t mind the wear on the picture, the tire wore down badly because I did an entire (slow) lap on the flat tire when it happened, all the other tires showed no issues in terms of that.
Pros: good noise, handles rain, immense grip
Cons: prone to punctures, trackday issues
Current tyre is a Nankang.

O meu carro tem 300cv e tenho esses nankang precisamente nesse modelo. Já vou no 2 par, antes tinha uns yokohama e também tive hankook e sinceramente a diferença é quase nula...
Pros: diferença é quase nula
Eu tive Nankang e não recomendo, posso ter tido azar, sei...
Estavam no eixo traseiro comecaram a surgir fissuras entre os sulcos do rasto
Cons: surgir fissuras
Mileage: 40000 km
Just stay away from nankang. I’ve had nothing but issues with them
Cons: nothing but issues
