Nankang AS-2+ 205/45 R17 88 V XL

I have driven one season on the Nankang AS2+. I have a comparison to the earlier Uniroyal and cheaper Chinese ones (albeit Cat A for rain) in this and the other car. This tyre is very good, performs in the dry and in the wet very well. It doesn't buckle on quick starts, it locks up late on emergency braking in the wet (although no miracles, it's similar to the RainSports), on dry braking-excellent, the first hazard lights come on before the tyre locks up on the wheels, so better than the car manufacturer envisaged. Highly recommend and will gladly take to the other car as they wear out the Austone Athena SP27 which I unfortunate to have chosen there. Read more Collapse

First impression was - aa Nankangs, but no joke pretty impressed. I am a guy whos driving style pissing off everyone, bad for them:) anyways, with my driving style I was always buying good brand good rating tyres. But this time I seen these with A rating on wet. And guess what, impressed. Good tyres, sharp cornering, just small slide when you going too fast in roundabouts. Recommend Read more Collapse

When I tried the tyre 4 years ago, I was laughed at by my colleagues. Today I have good tyres for little money that I can only recommend. Unfortunately, they have become expensive and are no longer as interesting when it comes to the price-performance ratio as they were 4 years ago. At that time I paid about 55,€, today it is more.

Very good value for money. Very good grip on dry and wet roads. Superbly balanced, no vibration or beating. When fitting them to the rim, the tyre specialist said they were quite stiff - maybe because I bought the reinforced version as far as I remember. Nevertheless, in my opinion they are flexible enough and absorb bumps well. Read more Collapse

I would recommend the tyres, my only complaint is that at 80-90kph they are a little noisy, but this is nothing I didn't know when I bought them, it doesn't bother me in everyday use, they also work well in the rain, I would recommend them. Read more Collapse
