Nankang NS 2 - User reviews

Its the only manufacturer that makes tires in size 185/35R17, so I had no choice and I had to buy Nankang S2:( When it's just a bit rainy or snowy the driving comfort is average and if you drive a lot you have to know that these tyres are good for only one season. The tread just disappears :(

Hard compound. This makes little grip in wet weather. Wear unevenly in sporty driving style.

Nankang NS2 look pretty interesting, They arent too noisy, but the problem arises once the car enters a puddle which cause a cushion effect.They probably lack in discharging water ! Sometimes it feels like the car slips from some bumps on the road. It is quite strange when it comes to a car that wieght 1845kilos.

I bought one set o Nankangs 205/55R16 in 2011 and I was so impressed that I bought the same set for my wife but it wasn't that great. Tyres behave average in wet condition. This year I bought 225/45R18 and during the rain they are a total disaster. They are unpredictable I'm affraid of driving them in wet condition because my car just starts to dance.

Very good in dry codnition but you have to watch out on wet road. Besides, they rub off quickly. They are silent in comparison to Dunlop 2000E. Considering price of Nankangs NS and my car value these tires are the best solution for me
