Nankang AS 1 255/30 R21 93 Y XL, ZR, MFS

I bought those tyres, because I needed cheap set for the summer quickly, and I didn’t want to spend money on used rubber. I was debating with myself if it wasn’t too risky , but it did not disappoint. I changed size 165/70R13 5j13 to 195/40R17 7j17. There is a big difference in grip and drive, of course, a big plus. Growth burning too big not noticed. The car less responsive now to some micro-inequalities which at 13inch could be clearly felt. The faster cornering is not a problem, the tyres stick well to less demanding turns, but on sharp bends I felt a slight loss of traction, in the dry conditions. In the wet conditions, they behave very well, the loss of grip occurs after heavy braking but only when speed was almost completely gone. The car without electronic support, but on these tyres easy to master. Overall, for this money, Nankang AS 1 recommendable. Read more Collapse

Car as standard came with high premium rated tyres fitted,I've worked in the tyre game for several years,I spent approx 15 years in that trade. My first opinion was to try and get new premium tyres at a good price,but over the years such tyres as nankang have made leaps and bounds in the tyre manufacturing process,as with all Motorsport teams now they find it very difficult to separate the differences of performance and agility from their race tyres,this engineering and processes are being handed down to us the average user of a product they test,albeit some say all you pay for is the the name in many cases this is true,but in my opinion such tyres as nankangs as1 are a very competitive product that do and will carry on doing showing their big cousins up in a world that requires a decent tyre of great value that helps the world go round...

For 170ps is enough, I have the 370nM and sometimes on second gear I have the impression as if it’s on the verge of losing its grip. In dry conditions there’s no difference between Nankang AS 1 and the more expensive competitors (previous I had PZero). They do not wear so quickly which is a plus. In the rain you can easily go on to the 150km/h. If I want to go faster, I need to focus because sometimes slight loss of control of the car can happen. The tyre looks nicely on the rim. I had several emergency braking from 210km/h and was positively surprised. If someone wants to go faster than 150km/h regardless of the wet conditions they might reconsider buying those tyres, but if ride up to 150km/h is sufficient, they can go ahead and buy.

I highly recommend those tyres to all. I already have a second set of tyres (both from Oponeo) and do not complain. In this case, the proportion of the price to quality is very good. Nankang AS 1 works really well during dynamic driving. I do not judge the economy, rolling resistance and durability because for me it is irrelevant. With my engine (2.5 V6 194km) tyres from the front axles durable less than 2 seasons and I am happy because till the end the tread was doing very well. Appearance of the tyres, and particularly their positioning on the rim will probably appeal to tunning fans, mainly by the trapezoid shape of the tyre. Let me add that with me they are fitted on the 8J rim. Read more Collapse

since now I used Pirelli PZero - imo one of the best tyres avaliable on the market. The issue was that they rubbed off quickly and they were very expensive. Nankang for me behaves very well. Tyres grip very well ini corners. They are suprisingly silent even in comparison to Pirellis. I didn't check them professionally in the corners so I don't know their grip limit. Pirelli signaled it with rising squeak. For me it is to early to say anything about the atriction. In general, I am very satisfied and I consider buying them one more time. The price\quality ratio is just brilliant. I wanted to have cheaper tyres but silent and I have them right now and I'm satisfied. Read more Collapse
