vs
Tires NANKANG or Laufenn
I'm running Girordisc in the front with IS3500 and in the rear stock rotors with IS3000 and they are holding up so far at Mosport with Nankang CRS V2 tires.
Pros: holding up so far
Run them on my personal vehicles and rental vehicles. 10-15k per year and see no issue. They easily last the 50k warranty. They balance well, and install easily, good bead that sets properly and has no issues
Pros: balance well, install easily
Cons: 10-15k per year
Mileage: 50000 km
I bought Laufenn for my Cadillac XT5. So Quiet & So smooth , just what I wanted.
Pros: quiet, smooth
Mileage: 4828 km
I myself drive Nankang AS2+ with the dimensions: 235/35 R19.
Apart from the less direct steering and a driving profile that is a little more geared towards comfort, I am very satisfied.
I have a great grip feeling and the rim protection is slightly wider than with the nexen nfera su1.
Pros: great grip feeling
Cons: less direct steering
Look at the NANKANG line. Start at NS2R. I use them on my Exige. But use a softer compound. If you need “more”, the AR1 are THE ones to take. But there is a new Kid on the block. NANKANG CRS. For that amount of monney, you wil hardly find a better tire.
Pros: better tire
Cons: softer compound
The Nankang NS20 wears well on track and has oK grip, but in the past I've found it to have a somewhat tricky balance around the limit. GReat for learning how to drive, but again it's not the best tyre in the wet so on the road it might not be ideal.
Pros: wears well on track
Cons: tricky balance, not best wet
In my limited experience with them i'd say that they are marginally better than Toyo's r888r over a single lap but require some tuning set up to not overheat.
Pros: marginally better than Toyo
Cons: require tuning, overheat
They’re a mid tier tire brand. They’re not the best nor the worst. However, if you want a better recommendation that’s mid tier but in my opinion a lot better, get Laufenn tires.
Pros: better mid tier tires
Cons: not the best
My i3 had nank’s. I destroyed the rears in less that 10k km.
Pros: Grippy!
Cons: Worn out quickly
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 10000 km
I checked my car tires and they are Laufenn. My ride quality is quite bumpy and shaky.
Cons: bumpy and shaky ride
Vehicle:
Ford Mustang
