Tires NANKANG or GENERAL TIRE

My go to brand for a lot of my vehicles has been General Tire, but sometimes I'll go for Continental if it's only a few bucks more.

I was not able to find falkens for the size I was looking so switched from Yoko a052 to Nankangs… very happy so far … was able to close the gap in my group by 3 seconds …

I've run both. Both are good. I prefer the Falken overall due to the directness of the steering feel and how well I can place the car. Nankangs very easy to drive.

They don’t seem to have got a mention yet, but the generally accepted ‘best track tyre for lowest price’ is the Nankang NS-2R. Right at the bottom of the price range for semi-slicks so obviously it’s performance isn’t at the same level as bigger brands semi-slicks, or eve Nankang’s own AR-1s (which most agree is a genuinely good semi-slick), but performs better on track than more expensive road/summer tyres in the dry.

the General Altimax Arctic is an older gen Gislaved NordFrost and a very good snow tire at a good price. I’ve had Hakkas, Blizzaks, Coopers, Firestones, Goodyears, and Hankooks winter tires, the Generals were the best for the price.

I have been quite happy with General RT43's in 185-6014. Good traction - even in the snow.

I went with the General GMax as05!!!! Let’s hope they are as good as everyone says and that they last for a bit!

I like the Federal 595s for track days, and I run general gmax as05 the rest of the time. Surprisingly grippy tire for an all season and pretty cheap!

I've had NS-II on my car for the past 4 years. For daily driving these tires will do just fine. Wet grip is alright and they're not terribly loud. They don't compare to Michelin Pilot Sport tires I ran before but they also don't cost anything close to Michelins.

Generally the folks I 4x4 with tend to avoid cheap small company tires like Radar, Atturo, and Nankang because some of em have had bad luck balancing them, even after spinning it on the rim. The quality control of the small companies isn't up to par with someone like Nitto or BFG so you get what you pay for.
