Nankang NS 2 - User reviews

Hi. I bought my car and it already weared Nankangs NS2 with 6-7mm tread. They are average on dry road. Everything seems to be ok but when it comes to more agressive style of driving they are poor. I have 220BHP Audi. These tyres are very poor on wet surface I have to say that they slip and dont do well in puddles. It makes a lot of noise. I bought new NoiansWRG2 and they are much more quiet than Nankangs. Bigest advantage is the low attricction. But it seems that the manufacturer paid more attention to attriction than safety.

I would recommend, would definitely recommend. For new tires paid as much as the branded drugs. Comparing them to the tire example. Dunlop N9000 fall on average, but take into account the value for money is great. On a dry surface stick well to wet but not very well, are quiet and very soft. Additionally, tires great stretch for over dimensional wheels. Overall, if I had more time to buy budget tires, I would buy it without thinking.

Nankang NS2 is average on dry conditions. If you have a powerfull car you will not feel comfortable. They are good for driving in the city. On wet weather it's just a drama. Its hard to move without slipping. I dont recommend them for sport driving in powerfull cars.

This is cheap tire and worth less in the sense that my experience in the 245/35 R20 measure are too noisy and unbalanced that it is impossible to correct the vibrations from the tire not to mention those times that resonate the two front drive wheels. A 60 km per hour the noise is annoying to 120 when perhaps the air rustling the compre partially. Only value in addition to the sporty design, appealing, but misleading, is the behavior in the event of aquaplaning. For the rest I am very bad and not the council.

The biggest crap tire I've ever had - though but departed cheap to buy after one season. Aquaplaning - course namely in small amounts of water on the road and the best: It is louder than my winter tires !! Have fun with it - at least I never again

Tires very loud! Rather, I would not recommend ... So far I would go to more expensive tires and I was wrong, now that I wanted to save. Behavior on a wet road below expectations ...

On dry conditions Nankangs NS2 are quite good tyres. They dont rub off as fast as Barum did. I drive 2 seasons on them and I can make 2 more for sure. If the rain falls youd better not drive. Wheels are blocking very fast. While moving you have to watch out because the grip breaks fast. You better get used to Aquaplaning. I dont advise you to drive trough puddles. To be a bit polite I have to say that the tread looks nice :)) I wont buy them again because driving in the rain makes me feel like driving on ice.

I have these tyres for 3 years and I dont know from where all those positive reviews come. I drove a lot of kilometers on them and I can say that the only thing that is ok with them is the design. When it comes to driving in wet conditions youd better pray to the almighty. A bit of rain and ABS turns on all the time. They have M+S sign so they supoused to be all weather but when the first snow comes you must wear Winter tyres. These tyres doesn't stick to the snow at all. In addition Nankangs are very expensive considering such a bad braking. The only advantages are that they do not rub off quickly and they look nice. I will never ever buy them again.
