Tires NANKANG or OEM Volkswagen

I bought these a while ago basically to store my B5 on; they have seen the road for about 200kms back and forth to the paint shop. No scratches, bends, rash, nothing. The tires are Nankang 215/35s and have some camber wear but could easily be used for the remainder of this season and next season.

Little bit too late, but i ma using the same tyre now. First impressions are really good, its quiet and comfort, acting well also. For that price i think you cant beat them with anything.

I had NS-2's and loved them.

So far so good. I've put close to 500 miles on them they seem to be really quiet, and handle well in the rain. They stretch well, ride quietly, and they are cheap so I have no complaints.

Just drove my mk5 through a winter storm. (quite literally) It performed very well! It has identical handling characteristics to the mk6 Golf. As others have said, it strongly depends on the tires.

Get Ns1's. Handle heavy load, stretch well, and respond well to over inflation.

I get 37mpg city in my tdi, and the best mileage I ever got on my rabbit (2.5 mkv) was 32mpg with 15's and ultra low rolling resistance tires.

My last vw, jetta, the rears always got scalloped eventually, even with rotations...now on the CC, just had the tires again rotated with the 30k service and the noise from the front is annoying as hell...that droning reverbish kind of sound.

I had some back in like 2002 or so, not bad, not great but definately not a high quality tire.. does the job if you just need something for basic use

i had 205/40/18 and the sidewill blew out within 3 days
