Tires Goodyear or NANKANG

I'm running Girordisc in the front with IS3500 and in the rear stock rotors with IS3000 and they are holding up so far at Mosport with Nankang CRS V2 tires.

The F1A6 is generally praised for its well-rounded performance, offering a good balance of grip (especially wet braking), handling, and a relatively quiet ride. It also tends to be more affordable than some of the top-tier performance tires.

recently went to yap brothers to buy goodyear f1a6 at $135 per piece for r17.

They have a bit longer braking distance than the best summer tyres but significantly better than cheaper summer tyres.

i had these tires for close to 85K and still going. I purchased them for $70 a piece and total cost like $360. Pleased with the performance.

I wouldnt trust 11 year old tires with my life. I‘ve had 6 year old goodyears and compared to a new set it was like night and day.

I will say the nankangs also suffer more in the rain (could be temp related too, but feels like they don’t evacuate water as well)

It's the cheapest tire that's kept in stock at my Sam's club. There are probably longer lasting budget tires, but there are far worse.

They are a softer rubber with less tread than the other Goodyear options. So they must be rotated and maintained or you won't have good mileage out of them.

Alignment, air pressure, and general maintenance will cause tire issues regardless of the tire type though. So again...it's a very average cheap tire.

Goodyear tires SUCK. Every Goodyear I've ever run - from trailers, cars and trucks - had a blowout. Not just flat, they EXPLODED.

My personal opinion is don't like the weather ready 2's I think the rubber compound is much harder than the michlin cross climate.
