Tires NANKANG or Achilles

Tested on a 2018 AMG GT R in Porsche Ring, Audru, Estonia. So far I'm liking the CRS more. Price is the same as Cup 2, but it's faster and doesn't seem to be worse on street.

We also have good experience with Nankang on smaller cars. I have not tried them on bigger cars yet. They are a bit more noisy than the Vitour tires, but the white stripe on them seems to hold up a little bit better. But there is still no problem keeping them white.

I have them ony C5. They're actually not bad even when not up to temp. I just don't push them hard until I build some heat. On the street they're AOK as long as youre not stupid.

I really like the CRS. Handles a bit more heat than most of the super 200 tires, but sticks way better than the endurance 200’s. Not good in the rain though.

The nankangs are very good track tires. Many experienced professionals like misha charoudin swear by them.

I have a set of Nankang NS-2R that I'd throw in the Ok tier. Faster than my rs4 were for sure. They are turning out to be pretty consistent all the way to the cords.

The crs were a bit pricey and didnt last long but they’re noticeable higher grip

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)

Have driven on Noble Sport NS20. Is bad, wouldn't recommend for the price point.

Nankang CRS definitely is not top tier on Lincoln concrete. I'd honestly throw it below the RT660 on pace. Decent on asphalt and hot weather.
