I ordered the Nankang NS2 because it was the only tyre available in 185/45/15. I wanted to keep my rolling radius as small as possible on a 15" wheel. This size is hard to get in UK, so i ordered on the euro based Mytyres.co.uk
The quality of these tyres for the price is unbeatable. The sidewalls look nice and the internal structure appears well made.
The treadwear rating is 340, So quite a hard wearing compound.
On the road they are surefooted and planeted on dry conditions.
In the damp they do have a tendency to break traction if pushed, but this is fairly typical of tyres with similar compounds.
In properly wet conditions they cope well with standing water.
These tyres suit me perfectly and i would certainly buy the NS2 again.
OK so its not the greatest tyre in the world, but for the price you really cant go wrong. And if you only use your car in the summertime in dry conditions the grip levels are up there with the best brands.
