Nankang NS 2 215/35 R19 85 Y XL, ZR

When I decided to buy Nankang NS 2 205/45 R17 I did it with a little fear of what may they turn out to be. As it turned out, it was completely unnecessary. These summer tyres proved to be great! They seem even better than my previous ones – Bridgestone Turanza’s. Nankang’s are easier to drive on, they have an exceptional grip on both on wet and dry roads, and what is the best, they use less fuel. Let me focus on the grip on wet roads. For me, it was always a great unknown, I was a bit of afraid, to be frank. But Nankang NS 2 have not failed me on my tour through the high humidity of the British Isles. They disperse water like a dream, and stick to the road as if they were glued to it. As for aquaplaning, I don’t know, I’m no expert, but I have to say, it was raining like hell and it didn’t bother the tyres. Just to sum it up, I highly recommend Nankang NS 2, as they are really, really good tyres. My friend who has the same car as me, bought Toyo Proxes, as he didn’t want to buy something he doesn’t know. He’s now jealous, ‘cause he paid more, and on wet roads they behave as if they were on the hockey rink  Read more Collapse

Large donuts like 215/50R17 are usually expensive. Since now I preferred well-known brands, as I was confident ‘bout them. For summer I had Uniroyal Rainsport 2, for winter Continental Winter Contact’s. Their prices were big, yeah, but I never had to doubt wheter I’m safe in my car or not. After a long search I stumbled upon the brand I didn’t know, which are Nankang NS 2. I won’t lie, a massive influence on my choice was my contact with the guy who’s into motorsport, and often rac-es internationally. He told me they were great, and positively seen in the world of motorsport. In Scandinavia, Nankang is told to be a great success, but even in Australia and the United Kingdom the positive rumors about ‘em start to spread. I’d like to add that this manufacturer has been around for decades, so they are definitely experienced. To sum up, I am happy with them as I don’t see a point in paying more than 90 quid per tyre, especially when it does match with accepted standards. I highly recommend them! Read more Collapse

I bought Nankang NS 2 195/45R15 for my Ibiza 1.9 TDi 90HP (well, ~130hp). I am very happy with these tyres. I wanted to try something cheaper and less known than the top brands. Those tyres manage with my driving style, which is quite aggressive and tense. I tend to step on it on curves too, and I am impresset with those Nankang’s. I’m talking about summer conditions, of course, when the asphalt is hot. As for other seasons I don’t know. I’ll have to test them early spring or late fall. However, when the asphalt is covered in water the steer-ing is a bit harder. Sometimes it’s just crazy. But then again, I tend to understeer, but it’s just cause I like to play with cars. That’s just my nature, and even top brands cannot manage it. All in all I highly recommend those tyres, as they look good and wear out slowly. Riding steady, they can last about 7-8 seasons. In my case it’s more like 4-5 seasons, though. I’d recommend to get Nankang NS 2 on all of your wheels. Read more Collapse

I bought those tyres, because I heard lots of positive comments on them from my friends. They were saying these tyres are amazing. It caught my attention, since they are pretty cheap. I thought that it’s some Chinese or Taiwanese rubbish. I was wrong. I didn’t follow my friends’ opinions blind-ly, I read a little about the company and Nankang NS 2 in particular and I found out they were right all along! Those tyres are worth their price and their quality is great. Currently I have them fitted on BBS wheels and sports suspension. It looks amazing. As for the noise generation and behaving on uneven roads, they are like any other tyres that I’ve got in the past. A word to sum this up: I highly recommend! Read more Collapse

I have this tyre model for the third season now. Previously I had some Continentals and Pirellies. It is kind of pointless to compare Nankangs to their predecessors as they were premium brands and quality was much higher. Of course, I was prepared for it and I am not surprised at all. I decided for Nankangs because of the price, almost half cheaper. I would say that I am satisfied with the quality for this kind of money. Everything is alright despite the fact that after some mileage they start to be really noisy. Just to conclude briefly - if someone wants to save some money and can accept that the noise level will increase after some time it is pretty good choice to buy Nankangs in my opinion.
