Tires NANKANG or Achilles

Achilles Tires

I really like my 195/55R15 Achilles ATR Sports. They wear relatively quickly (within 30k-40k miles), but man they're great tires for the money. I've never had an issue with them in the rain either.

Pros: great tires for money
Cons: wear relatively quickly

Pros: clear the coilovers
Cons: needed 5mm spacers

I have Nankang NS-25s on mine. Less than $100 each, and even with a Malone Stage 2 setup, it only spins the tires a little bit. Dry handling is surprisingly good as well. They put up with northern Illinois winters well enough, and are just fine in the rain. Not too much road noise either.

Pros: good dry handling, low noise

Achilles Tires

I'm running the achilles atr sport 2s. These are a cheap tire and won't compare to a michelin or conti but they're pretty good for the price. I have about 30k miles on them, they got me through utah mountain winters, and I've been running -2.5 degrees of camber all around. So for the money they did their job.

Pros: good for the price
Mileage: 48280 km

Achilles Tires

I ran them on three cars. They are my favorite Budget tire they stretch well and look good stretched. I have never had them lose air on me. They are a little louder than some tires I think but not by much. I have them on my GTI right now and can't say enough for the price of them.

Pros: stretch well, look good
Cons: a little louder
Vehicle: Volkswagen

NANKANG Tires

I had General's in that size on my old GTI. Awesome tires, but they've gone way up in price since then. After that, I had a set of the Nankangs. Crap tires and the road noise drove me insane. Would not recommend.

Pros: awesome tires (General)
Cons: crap tires (Nankang), insane road noise
Vehicle: Volkswagen
