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.
I really like the CRS. Handles a bit more heat than most of the super 200 tires, but sticks way better than the endurance 200’s. Not good in the rain though.
The nankangs are very good track tires. Many experienced professionals like misha charoudin swear by them.
Nankang FT-9 145/80R12LT.
They have been great tires for me for everything I've thrown at them so far.
I’ve actually been running NS-2Rs on my Miata for a few months now. For the price, they’re seriously hard to beat. Grip is great once they’re warmed up, and they’ve taken a decent beating at a couple of track days without falling apart. I was skeptical at first, but they’ve earned my respect.
I have a set of Nankang NS-2R that I'd throw in the Ok tier. Faster than my rs4 were for sure. They are turning out to be pretty consistent all the way to the cords.
I did some research before buying Sailun (race dragon) winter tires on the cheap. They were OK, but didn't last as long as other brands.
I put some cheap all seasons on my Fiesta ST (sailuns) and they were fine until it snowed and it was like I was trying to drive on summer tires in winter. Then they couldn't handle a single pothole, within a year I tossed the whole set because I blew one out and saw I had a bubble in two other tires on the insides from potholes.
Not happy, 25,000 km and two are separated, would definitely not recommend
