vs
Tires NANKANG or VITOUR
On the Vitours so at least for now prefer them ????
Pros: prefer them
Vitour P1 is the hot new tire to run. As fast as the fastest, really stiff sidewall to keep you somewhat taught on a oversized tire, and longer lasting than any other top tier 200tw tires.
Pros: fast, stiff sidewall
Cons: oversized tire
I just finished a coaching session with my friends 992 Carrera S on some new Vitour P1's and was very impressed with how they handled 20+ minute sessions. The heat tolerance is probably the best characteristic, especially compared to the yokes! The P1 just doesn't fall off on grip like that, they are very consistent and don't mind the high heat of the track.
Pros: consistent grip, high heat tolerance
Cons: compared to the yokes
Vehicle:
Porsche
I myself drive Nankang AS2+ with the dimensions: 235/35 R19.
Apart from the less direct steering and a driving profile that is a little more geared towards comfort, I am very satisfied.
I have a great grip feeling and the rim protection is slightly wider than with the nexen nfera su1.
Pros: great grip feeling
Cons: less direct steering
If you will daily these AND do some AX, go for the Vitour P1 tires. They are as fast or faster than the RT660 but will last a lot longer. They also won't fall off in the AZ heat - they hold heat a lot better.
Pros: fast or faster, last longer
Vitour P1 has you covered. Fastest Super 200 tire out this season (check out GRM review). Also, they don't slow down when hot, and they're lasting longer than a y other options.
Pros: don't slow down when hot
In my limited experience with them i'd say that they are marginally better than Toyo's r888r over a single lap but require some tuning set up to not overheat.
Pros: marginally better than Toyo
Cons: require tuning, overheat
I have a set of Nankangs on my Ghia. They are a decent tire, but don't expect tons of grip from them, and they're pretty hard.
Pros: decent tire
Cons: not tons of grip
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
My i3 had nank’s. I destroyed the rears in less that 10k km.
Pros: Grippy!
Cons: Worn out quickly
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 10000 km
I had been looking for a secondhand setup and got a great deal on these. I likely would not have chosen the Nankangs myself. Wet traction is awful, and I break loose from stoplights in dry conditions really often.
Cons: awful wet traction
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
