Tires Uniroyal or NANKANG

Nankang FT-9 tires have been awesome for me. I basically rally my little van out in the woods so I can attest to their durability.

They also handle pretty well on road.

And they are LT rated!

I run a taller/skinnier than stock Uniroyal Laredo AT in my truck and love them.

Uniroyal are good, affordable tires.

These are comfortable highway tires that ride SMOOTHLY and quietly. I am selling as I want to begin dune bashing so I upgraded to All-Terrain tires.

I’ve had a set of Uniroyals (Tigerpaws) on my 2010 ford focus slider. They’ve been on for quite a few years now, no noticeable cracking, and treadwear still good.

Nankang AR1’s are absolutely amazing but I wouldn’t recommend driving on them in anything but completely dry weather as they’re basically a road legal semi slick.

2nd pic shows dry rot cracking. Odd for a new tire after 6,000mi. You could try warranty through Uniroyal.

Consumer reports says:

Pros: Solid performance in the areas of dry braking, handling, hydroplaning resistance. Solid treadlife performance also.

Cons: Just average rolling resistance performance which can have a negative impact on vehicle fuel efficiency.

I don’t drive my Mini much, sub 100 miles a year. I had Nankangs but they started to split after 18 months. Not sure if lack of movement didn’t help but it was annoying.

Dude, my set of nankang tires from week 44 2023, stored in a shipping container, are worse than this. Literally sidewall cracks all over. Tossed that shit out so fast...
