Hey guys,

I couldn't find much review on these tires anywhere on the web.
To those who have had or have the tires , what are your impression on them?

Nankang NS-20
Nankang As-1

Thanks

I've used them as drift spares. Specifically the NS20. I daily-ed on a set of them about a year ago, they seemed to do the job just fine. Good budget tire in my opinion. Kind of suck in the rain but oh well lol.

I saw some terrible review on Chinese tires about them bursting and shredding treads.. How do they compare to the stock Michelin ? Noise wise, and handling
I just want to confirm that the NS-20 is an all season tire right ?

Thanks!

Just an update..

I bought the Nankang NS-20 215/45R17.

Not bad for tires, pretty quiet. I only had them for around 400 miles.
Grips very well, did not test out wet performance yet.
