nankang are not a performance tyre the design may look the same but the compound used in the main tread is far infrior and the banding in the crcass is not as wide or strong as in top brand tyres (i used to work in tyre sales)

welcome to the nut house plz excuse the crazy ones (me then) and we will all be happy to help as much as we can

this has to be the longest thread i have seen on the forum so far

single exit woohoo way 2 go that has to sound extreme

think it might have been a competition between them who could curl the highest

welcome mortal to the mad world of the tt zed

well i have just downloaded firefox so i will see how it performs

well im pleased they got caught out in the end if you do the crime then your gonna have to do the time

ok i used to work in a tyre and exhaust centre so i could take all day explaining this.... cheap/budget tyres nankang-jupiter-roadhog etc etc are made up with less width of banding in the carcass therefore allowing more sidewall flex in the tyre the also use lower grade compounds for the main tread of the tyre which returns less mileage for your money. also the way water is disspersed from under the tyre is less efective on cheaper tyres. when you do a side by side comparison with a cheaper tyre to a leading brand you will see exactly the diferences yes maybe michelin pirelli goodyear toyo kumho are more expensive but the return you will get will outway the costs. other factors affected by cheap tyres are road noise handling stopping distances and of course fuel consumption whereas with a leading brand you will run quieter on the road feel more positive in the corners/roundabouts stop quicker and get slightly better mpg from the car (all of these items are dependant on correct tyre pressure being maintained. any reputable garage will be more than happy to give you a demonstration of what i have just said hope this has helped some and not got boring

not impressed didnt even score over 100 so bahh humbug to his how cool is your car

ok what games are you playing online where can i get them from and (im skint) are they free (im also fookin tight)
