Tires that work well in the heat with more pace than a V730? Nankang CRS.
Pros: work well in heat
Cons: more pace than V730
Also lift kit, 14” rims and nankang AT tires so I can get to more remote job sites.
Pros: remote job sites
You may also look at Nankang AR1, 100tw semi slicks, if it’s only for track and dry days.
I had great experience, my car weighs 3k lbs, and the set lasted me for 16-17 track days, and it was a used set.
The grip in these tires is insane and improved braking drastically.
Pros: insane grip, improved braking
Nankang are cheap budget tires. They might have ran out of money recently and have been cutting corners on maintenance.
Pros: cheap budget tires
Cons: cutting corners
All that carbon fiber to make it light and easy to flick into corners - yet bro's never been past 15° lean. Waste of good rubber.
Pros: light and easy to flick
Cons: waste of good rubber
Vehicle:
Honda
Nannkang NS20 is the cheapest tire that's good enough you won't think about it
Pros: good enough, cheapest tire
I don’t drive my Mini much, sub 100 miles a year. I had Nankangs but they started to split after 18 months. Not sure if lack of movement didn’t help but it was annoying.
Cons: started to split
Vehicle:
MINI
My little Honda Fit is so light that even with good snow tires I can't get anywhere if the roads are slick.
Pros: good snow tires
Cons: can't get anywhere
Vehicle:
Honda Fit
