The nankangs are very good track tires. Many experienced professionals like misha charoudin swear by them.
Nankang FT-9 145/80R12LT.
They have been great tires for me for everything I've thrown at them so far.
I’ve actually been running NS-2Rs on my Miata for a few months now. For the price, they’re seriously hard to beat. Grip is great once they’re warmed up, and they’ve taken a decent beating at a couple of track days without falling apart. I was skeptical at first, but they’ve earned my respect.
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.
I myself drive Nankang AS2+ with the dimensions: 235/35 R19.
Apart from the less direct steering and a driving profile that is a little more geared towards comfort, I am very satisfied.
I have a great grip feeling and the rim protection is slightly wider than with the nexen nfera su1.
These are the Nankang CRS tires, saw similar wear pattern from the RT660s as well (in fact that kind of just chunked away leaving rings of cords).
The Nankang NS20 wears well on track and has oK grip, but in the past I've found it to have a somewhat tricky balance around the limit. GReat for learning how to drive, but again it's not the best tyre in the wet so on the road it might not be ideal.
In my limited experience with them i'd say that they are marginally better than Toyo's r888r over a single lap but require some tuning set up to not overheat.
My i3 had nank’s. I destroyed the rears in less that 10k km.
I had been looking for a secondhand setup and got a great deal on these. I likely would not have chosen the Nankangs myself. Wet traction is awful, and I break loose from stoplights in dry conditions really often.
