Some of the cheaper tires was enough for three burned by the heat. Good for tension and a lot of smoke.

Excellent tyres with a lovely design and a kind of sporty edge to them. They drive perfectly on dry roads. The ride is smooth because of the new mixture that the manufacturer claims to have used. They ensure a great grip, also in wet conditions, even with 50% of tyre wear! When they are worn more, you should remain a bit cautious. It’s normal I think, since summer tyres are not designed for wet, muddy or snowy roads. Some time ago, I covered about 200km on icy road with Nankang NS 2. I was driving 80kph on 4th gear, but managed to get home safely without using snow chains or win-ter tyres. Nankang NS 2 guarantee a fair grip, and I would highly recommend them.

Hello tires worth more money. Until now, I had founded tires size 165/70 R14, and some time ago, I decided to invest in a good quality wheels and new tires instead of second hand brand of an unknown source. Initially, I had the strength of companies in the east and jump on the size of R14 to 205/40 R17 but after the installation and use of tires as much as possible on the positive side, from appearance - its great - to me softly ... and rolling resistance. I think the new quality / price ratio that most more.

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.

Excellent tires, j 'hesitated before buying, but they are really good. No noise in the corners and the tread looks good. My car has 150 hp. I really recommend it.

I bought 225/55/16 tires to test and I had a pleasant surprise The quiet tire I made them 3000 km away. In the rain and in the dry I braked suddenly and I accelerated in the curves and the tires behaved well. :) I added that I was driving on these tires in winter conditions and I do not recommend it. Change it for the winter for winter option :)

Proud tires look. They are strong (although will travel about 10 km flaku protect the rim very well - I still had). A little after 2 seasons wyząbkowały, but this factor depends mainly on the speed drop, and I rode fast: D But I think I'd better do a bit of a premium.

Incredible in the dry in the rain a little less but it works. The worst is started quickly but after everything goes well :) Me and my wife and we are fully satisfied that reasonable price! It behaves similarly to my previous Bridgestone Turanza. But it is worn quite quickly.

It is quite hard to evaluate this tyre model. Fantastic dry grip and even better on wet asphalt but the thing is that it is true only for the first 20k miles roughly. After that is gets lower aquaplaning resistance and can be a bit too noisy for some drivers in my opinion. The funny story is that I was driving for some longer time with a small nail in the tread without losing the pressure. It was discovered by a mechanic finally. So, durability seems to be more than fine though. Price is really attractive and if someone does not care about the noise or aquaplaning it is the right product.
