Good quality for a reasonable price. They look awesome and they behave realy well on roads But I have a feeling that the tire Nangkang tends to rub off quickly. I dont have any restrictions regarding that tires.

Tires behave under dry or wet conditions very well.Very low attrition and noise level. If I had to choose again I would definately take Nankang S2.

Im satisfied with these tyres. Plenty of tyres from more expensive manufacturers are comparable to these. They handle pretty good on dry, not so good if it starts to rain. At high speeds they aren't noisy at all. Buy it!! You wont regret

Driving on Nankangs S2 is just a pleasure in my Audi Quattro. Even driving on bad polish roads I felt satisfied with their behaviour. They have realy good handling. I dont use these tyres during winter. The price of these tyres is realy beneficial.

The only problem is that while driving 120km/h - 140km/h the stering wheel starts to vibrate. Over 140km/h everything is fine again.

Since 1998 I've been driving with Conti or Bridgestone and than I realised that 3-5 season tires are just tragic and I decided to buy new Nankangs NS2. 225/45/17 are realy good. They are much more quiet than Dunlop Sport 2000 and Fulda Exelero. They are not feathering.I checked them in a quite huge rain and I wasn't disappointed. I wont dispute with fake drivers who claim that any new tires are hopeless. They should know that driving into a wall of rain on hot tires or braking in the rut full of water even with the most expensive tires can be dangerous... you cannot cheat the laws of physics. The new tire from a less known Porducent will always be better than multi-seasonal from best known. I have tested them in Corsa, Getz, Panda, AstryII, A3, A4, A6, C and E classes during winter and summer. I was very skeptical about the Nankangs but they suprised me positively..It makes no sense to overpay and buy expensive tyres when you can buy cheaper and comparable Nankangs.

In 2010 i bought 2 Nankangs NS2. They behave good on wet road. The same goes for dry roads. They are realy silent so I decided to buy them once again this year.

Generaly speaking Nankangs NS2 are worth their price. 205/55R16 suprised me realy well. They grip awesome on dry waether. On wet it is not so easy to turn ESP or ABS on. Tyre for a reasonable price and honestly worth buying.

I had Goodyears 235/45R17. I drove 2 seasons on them (about 50k km) and after this period 2 of my tyres were totally damaged. Currently I'm using Nankangs NS2 (made in Taiwan) and they are much more quiet, they handle realy well. If the quality will not got worse I will definitely buy them again.
