    Hi all

    Anyone have any experience of these tyres ?

    I have read shocking reports of their wet performance :

    Need to put four new tyres on a jeep and want something with excellent wet weather grip.

    If your financial circumstances are limiting you to buying Nankangs then I'd suggest you look elsewhere. Look at getting a set of Part-Worn tyres maybe, you can get excellent tyres for about €50 a corner fitted and these are preium brands so should have excellent wet weather capabilities.

    Tyreland in Glasnevin are quite good to deal with.

    Much better than the chinese crap we're seeing more of on Irish roads. :)

    Have to say the same about Tyreland Swords, you'll have a bit of a wait, but they will check out what tyres they have and you can choose.
