Tires NANKANG or Maxxis

Maxxis Tires

Maxxis Grifters. I’m 18 months in on them as a 1-2 time a week rider. No visible wear or pinch flats despite running low psi. They last forever and are grippy af.

Pros: grippy, long lasting
Cons: no cons

Maxxis Tires

I ran a maxxcross on both front and rear - rear first, before I upgraded to a 16" + shinko 525. Its not a bad tire at all, and if you're looking to keep the weight down on the stock rim then I say its a good choice.

Pros: good choice, keeps weight down
Cons: not a bad tire

NANKANG Tires

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 …

Pros: very happy so far
Cons: could not find falkens

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.

Pros: 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.

Pros: best track tyre, lowest price
Cons: doesn't deal well wet
Vehicle: Toyota MR2

I run a Maxxis Aggressor on the back of my bike and I love it. A DHF up front has loads of grip but the Aggressor has similar side lugs (a little smaller but not much) so the vine still turns well. At the same time, it has smaller center lugs and having swapped a DHR for it, I can certainly tell it rolls better.

Pros: rolls better

I have Nakang NS2 in the front of my Alfa Romeo Brera. The Brera demands a lof of from front tires, they wear pretty well and have pretty decent grip (not great).

The thing is, you may like or not like, they have a soft construction. So you are more on the confortable side, but roll a bit more on corners and give you less steering feedback than a better tire like Michelin PSS.

Pros: wear pretty well, decent grip
Cons: soft construction, less feedback
Vehicle: Alfa Romeo Brera

My buddy has them on the rears of his FBO 335i right now. They're not terrible for basic to spirited street driving. They can't handle any power at all though.

Pros: not terrible for driving
Cons: can't handle power
Vehicle: BMW

Expect lots of ***-***-*** noise as they wear. The NS2 on one of my previous cars got so loud that it became unbearable.

Cons: unbearable noise when worn
