If you decide to try another, Toyo Open Country AT3. I love them on my Tundra!
Nankang's FT7 tires are good, cheap and can take quite the beating off road without shredding to bits. You won't need M/T tires for your usecase.
Ie enjoyed Toyo proxy sports
I went with the Toyo Extensa HP II because it was a good compromise on price/efficiency/grip/noise. My biggest complaint with the OEM tires was that they hydroplaned worse than any tire I’ve had on a car since the 80s and these Toyos are much better. Range is down, maybe, 2-5%, maybe more on longer drives at speed, but EVERYTHING else about these tires is leagues better…ride, handling, noise, braking…everything.
Needed tires for my CX-5 and they had these at the shop. So far they are better than the stock Toyo A36.
Toyos and Kumhos have served me well over tens of thousands of miles. Toyo Open Country AT3W and Kumho Crugen HT51. Michelins are known as the best tire for longevity and commuting.
Go Cross Climate 2. Replaced my factory Toyos last year and you really feel the difference and safety.
Toyo's are underrated af, really good tires, but wear out slightly fast to my liking (3y)
I had both ns2 and 512 on my 17x9 both were 205/45. The nankangs were decent but didn't give me the stretch I wanted like the falkens
I ran a set of Nankang tires for 4 months. They came on the wheels I bought and they had good tread, so I figured that it would just be a waste for me to spend money on new tires while running these. They are not great - winter traction is non-existent, it was legitimately scaring driving on these tires when it was below 20 degrees outside and my car is AWD so that's saying something too (I didn't die though so I guess it's okay ), dry traction is okay, but tires feel very numb. They ride kind of hard too and are noisy. I do drive them up to 100+ usually. Haven't had an issue so far. I am taking them off and putting a set of Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3s. I am expecting big improvements. So my recommendation: don't buy them. save the money, use your current set, and when you have enough, get a decent set of tires.
