Tires NANKANG or DEXTER
I have had 2 sets of them in 5 years on an 05 tahoe. First set has lasted me roughly 48k and the most recent pair are still on the tahoe with abiut 20k on them (Tahoe is sitting, I now drive a 2016 Colorado) The tires are made local to me in South Carolina. For the price I cant beat it. I have nothing but good experience with the Dextero AT
I have used the DAT1’s on two vehicles and the grip was phenomenal. The DAT1’s made that a joke.
Tested on a 2018 AMG GT R in Porsche Ring, Audru, Estonia. So far I'm liking the CRS more. Price is the same as Cup 2, but it's faster and doesn't seem to be worse on street.
We also have good experience with Nankang on smaller cars. I have not tried them on bigger cars yet. They are a bit more noisy than the Vitour tires, but the white stripe on them seems to hold up a little bit better. But there is still no problem keeping them white.
I have them ony C5. They're actually not bad even when not up to temp. I just don't push them hard until I build some heat. On the street they're AOK as long as youre not stupid.
Objectively, Dextero DAT1 (budget all terrains from Priority Tire) on my beater truck. That said they are good tires for the money, just a little noisy.
I have nankang econex on my 2006 twingo. But since i barely drive it, it's just fine.
CRS and AR1 are great track tyres and so use the AR1 myself.
However, what I think is their UHP road tyre, the NS2 is poor compared to Michelin/bridgestone/Continental offerings.
Have driven on Noble Sport NS20. Is bad, wouldn't recommend for the price point.
Nankang CRS definitely is not top tier on Lincoln concrete. I'd honestly throw it below the RT660 on pace. Decent on asphalt and hot weather.
