vs
Tires NANKANG or Giti
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 got over 55,000 out of the factory Giti so I bought another set from the dealer.
Pros: long lasting
Mileage: 88500 km
It has nankang cr-s 255s on the rear and it wheel spins solidly on all gear shifts to 180km/h. It will need drag radials.
Pros: solid wheel spin
Cons: needs drag radials
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
Never heard of Giti before, which is not a good sign. After Looking them up, the reviews aren't great.
Cons: reviews aren't great
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
