vs
Tires NANKANG or Laufenn
If you don't care about money and want the fastest tire get the nankang crs v2s.
Pros: fastest tire
I've put these on my work vans and personal trucks for years, I've used about 6 sets. They punch way above their weight. I'm not going to say they're the best, but they're better than they have any reason to be considering the price. They wear long, are reasonably quiet and work well plowing snow.
Pros: wear long, reasonably quiet
I usually go for Nankang SW-8, as they are really cheap for how good they feel.
Pros: cheap, good feel
Vehicle:
Toyota MR2
I have a set of Laufenn tires on my car rn for snow. forget what tire exactly but they provide me plenty of grip in the winter
Pros: plenty of grip
Nankang ns2 is really good!
Pros: really good
Nankang ns2/ns2r, lotta bang for the buck
Pros: lotta bang for buck
NS2 review: I've never been able to get them balanced properly and they're loud. Even forced balanced on brand new wheels, I got highway vibrations. That said, they're inexpensive, last decently long for the price, handle water extremely well and they stretch nicely. They handle water better than falken 512's, 452's and hankook v12 evo's. I've had 4 sets and I've never had a bubble or other failure.
Pros: inexpensive, last long, excellent water handling, stretch nicely, no failures
Cons: hard to balance, loud, highway vibrations
a bit noisy when worn but they stretch well and last plenty long. I usually buy them when going for new tires. NS-II
Pros: stretch well, last long
Cons: noisy when worn
I had nankang before. Stupid loud and didn't last long at all.
Cons: stupid loud, didn't last long
Expect lots of ***-***-*** noise as they wear. The NS2 on one of my previous cars got so loud that it became unbearable.
Cons: unbearable noise when worn
