Nankang or kumho?

[bajajracing]

Hi guys,
im thinking to get new tyres for rear wheels.
coz im on budget at the moment. so i only have 2 choices.
either nankang ns-2 or kumho ku712?
they are same price.
what u guys reckon?
which one is better?
anyone had an experience with these tyres?
thanks in advance....

ahh hands down kuhmo? nankangs r cheap lol they seem to last forever but arent all the best

[vincikwan]

maybe try second hand tires...they are much cheaper. I got my bridgestones for $50X4($200) with 80% thread left. i think my bridgestones are G3 and RM010.

Nankangs>Kumho's

But for a Fwd kumho's as they dont require as much "heating" as teh nankangs :D

Perhaps invest in some second hand tyres for temporary relief?

[bajajracing]

second tyres hard to find..
coz the size 275/30/19 for 10" witdh rims.

[vincikwan]

275! Wat car is that going to go on? Even my S15 dosent need such big tires! Those tires are more commonly seen on a Ferrari. Overkill for a NA car.

Kumho's are overall better then nankangs by a long shot.. Nankangs FTL...

If you can afford Ecsta's then rock them.. I used to have a set on my old Nissan and they performed so well IMO. Great ****ing tyre..

i've had the 712's in the past and they were great for me. quiet and awesome in the wet. could drive speed limit in heavy downpour and know my tires would stick. never had enough power to test straight acceleration grip but cornering was pretty good.

Id rather use bald bridgestones than use nangkangs.

lol true that.
Kumho all the way nam nakang is poo. i used them both th Kumho is quite and pretty sticky

[bajajracing]

these are on honda legend.
if i own ferarri i'll buy new yokohama tyres man....

[vincikwan]

LOL, get second hand tires mate...some of them are worth it. But considering the size, its really kinda hard. Why dont you get new rims as well? You can try this really cheapo brand called Sumitomo. Thier made in malaysia. Should be really cheap but i am not sure about the performance. Good luck with the tire search mate.

'TALEB TYRES' is a new trader on here,give hima go.He's very cheap!

[aznpsuazn]

Why take a punt on your safety with second hand tyres?

If you need to brake hard in an emergency, the last thing i would want is a set of crappy tyres trying to stop my car from hitting a nice pole.

x2

does good brands

[nigs]

Those NS-2's smoke up real good.

[ricki_kalsi]

Both are shit! :)

I'd go Kumho over Nankang though.

How about Toyo T1R - reasonably priced...

[beeza]

Or Toyo T1S's,$80 each delivered from Taleb Tyres.That's what I got and they are awesome!

$80? r u sure?
yeah i asked taleb tyres , they gave me $230 for 265/30/19 for nankang.
i think i'll go with used tyres like toyo or yokohama.
lol
thanks guys.....

[beeza]

Yeah $80 205/45/15,as you know the odd size makes it more expensive.
