vs
Tires NANKANG or SUNNY
Avoid budget tyres but mid range tyres like Nankang etc would be more than enough on a C1.
Pros: mid range, more than enough
Cons: avoid budget tyres
Vehicle:
Citroen C1
Nankang CRS hands down. The only good thing I’ve ever heard about Toyos in the past decade is that they come in a lot of sizes.
Pros: Nankang CRS hands down
I was not able to find falkens for the size I was looking so switched from Yoko a052 to Nankangs… very happy so far … was able to close the gap in my group by 3 seconds …
Pros: very happy so far
Cons: could not find falkens
I've run both. Both are good. I prefer the Falken overall due to the directness of the steering feel and how well I can place the car. Nankangs very easy to drive.
Pros: very easy to drive
They don’t seem to have got a mention yet, but the generally accepted ‘best track tyre for lowest price’ is the Nankang NS-2R. Right at the bottom of the price range for semi-slicks so obviously it’s performance isn’t at the same level as bigger brands semi-slicks, or eve Nankang’s own AR-1s (which most agree is a genuinely good semi-slick), but performs better on track than more expensive road/summer tyres in the dry.
Pros: best track tyre, lowest price
Cons: doesn't deal well wet
Vehicle:
Toyota MR2
I’ll probably end up with another set of Nankang AR-1s next.
Pros: good performance
Vehicle:
Porsche
I liked them when I had them. Dry and wet they were pretty good, in the snow...not so much.
Pros: good in dry/wet
Cons: not good in snow
I had them on the c5s, drove them prettybhard in all sorts of weather and they were great,.. But at the first sigh of snow they were horrible, barely made it home with a 1/4 in of snow.. Dry wet however was great and to me they seemed silent..
Pros: great in dry/wet weather, silent
Cons: horrible in snow
A few years back I looked at a CPO 2009 GTI - had Sunny tires on it. Besides the rest of the car being beat to snot and smelling terrible, the tires were horrible. I didn't look at what was on the car until after the test drive. I couldn't believe it was a CPO.
Cons: horrible tires
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
lol i wanna know too, my nankangs wore way to fast for me.
Cons: wore way to fast
