Tires NANKANG or GT Radial

GT Radial has a sporty side wall and we're enjoying it in our pickup.

Nankang NS2-R is best bang for buck track tyre hands down.

It’s marginally slower than most other semi-slicks, but it will last longer, it will be faster than any premium road tyre on track.

That being said, the CR-S is an incredible tire if your focus is driving on dry tracks. I found wear to be good with very consistent laptimes, it doesn‘t overheat easily, which is something I very much enjoy. Being able to push for many laps with the tire staying consistent and predictable is quite a treat if you ask me. Performance in the wet however isn‘t really good.

These tires wear like iron for me. They're fantastic.

I’ve seen mixed reviews of them. With some saying they aren’t great in the wet(acceptable but lacking when compared to others), other saying they wear really quickly.

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.

GT Radial tires are manufactured by Giti Tire, a Singapore-based tire manufacturer with nine facilities worldwide. Ironman tires are a budget sub-brand of Hercules Tires, which is in partnership with Cooper Tires, and manufactures its tires in different countries.

Realistically they are probably close to equivalent to each other, but both are low end budget tire brands. They seem to fair well on dry pavement and do marginally well in wet conditions, but are noticeably lacking in snow and winter conditions.

I drive a 05 wrx and have had both Blizzak WS80 and GT Radial Ice Pro 3 on it. I only got the GT Radials because I was in grad school and they were cheap. They get the job done, but are definitely not as good as blizzies. Obviously haven't done any scientific tests, but the steering feel is noticeably worse on the radials, stopping distance is much longer, acceleration worse. Frequently notice them understeering significantly on both wet and snowy roads.

GT Radial SX2s are the spec tire for the SoCal 86 cup and they are pretty shitty to be honest but they hold up well
