Tires NANKANG or Barum

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.

They have been great tires for me for everything I've thrown at them so far.

I ran a set of NS2's years ago, they came on my B5.5 Passat. Grip wise they were acceptable in the dry, and pretty poor in the rain. Alot of my customers also ran them back then. I've never seen anything akward happen to one, no sidewall bubbles, blowouts, or failures. They aren't unsafe or bad tires, they were just always at the bottom of their category in terms of performance, refinement, grip, so I never considered buying a set. If my hands were tied in terms of availability, I would feel perfectly comfortable running Nankangs, especially on an application like a Figaro. I would go for it.

I swapped out the primacy's with nankang ns-20s and I feel like the car is less responsive. For instance, when quickly changing lanes on the freeway I feel like the ride is more spongy. They're way better for traction, but I feel less agile.

Had them in 245/45r18. Really comfortable, fuel efficient, good grip but average feedback. I was really happy with them until i had to do an emergency brake and the car just kept going. Afterwards I went and read tyre tests and all tests confirmed that their braking is horrible both in dry and wet.

They are dangerous in emergency situations

My i3 had nank’s. I destroyed the rears in less that 10k km.
