vs
Tires NANKANG or WANLI
I have 3 sets of wheels+tires.
Nankang NS-2R for track on Teamdynamics
Pros: good for track
Nankang worked well for me
Pros: worked well
I have nankang ar1s on my mclaren 12c. Great track tire
Pros: great track tire
I have Nankang NS-25s on mine. Less than $100 each, and even with a Malone Stage 2 setup, it only spins the tires a little bit. Dry handling is surprisingly good as well. They put up with northern Illinois winters well enough, and are just fine in the rain. Not too much road noise either.
Pros: good dry handling, low noise
yes really, quiet, grips just fine for a daily driver golf, and cheap ($224 for the set) I spent more money on my first set of tires, and realized i didn't need them. These fit my need perfectly.
Pros: quiet, grips just fine
Cons: cheap
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I've been impressed with the Nankang NS-2R in 120tw and in 180tw. Would definitely recommend giving them a go if you burn through tires quickly. 265/35/18 120tw on the TSW worked very well and I ran them on the street between events. Strong sidewalls, even better than the RS3 at the limits, and very durable.
Pros: strong sidewalls, very durable
Cons: burn through tires quickly
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
i have them too. they run skinny and stretch well. they are a little noisy though.
Pros: stretch well, run skinny
Cons: a little noisy
lol i wanna know too, my nankangs wore way to fast for me.
Cons: wore way to fast
I had General's in that size on my old GTI. Awesome tires, but they've gone way up in price since then. After that, I had a set of the Nankangs. Crap tires and the road noise drove me insane. Would not recommend.
Pros: awesome tires (General)
Cons: crap tires (Nankang), insane road noise
