Tires NANKANG or SUNNY
MT71s are good and the FT7 Nankangs seem to work ok:
Pros: MT71s are good
Vehicle:
Toyota Tercel
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
Nannkang NS20 is the cheapest tire that's good enough you won't think about it
Pros: good enough, cheapest tire
I’m a novice driver that has a total of 3 HPDE days on this set of tires. 2000 S2000, Nankang AR1 255 rear and 225 front. I had it aligned last year, with 1/4” toe in as per specs and most recommendations for the AP1 S2K. As you can see, my front tires have minimal wear compared to the rears. On track the lack of rear grip vs front is quite noticeable. There isn’t any wheel spin out of corners, the rear is just loose and twitchy in mid-high speed corners. I’m wondering if that’s why the rear wear is so much higher.
Pros: minimal front wear
Cons: lack of rear grip, rear is loose and twitchy
Vehicle:
Honda S2000
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
Dude, my set of nankang tires from week 44 2023, stored in a shipping container, are worse than this. Literally sidewall cracks all over. Tossed that shit out so fast...
Cons: sidewall cracks all over
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
