The Nankang NS-II is an ultra high performance summer tire designed for passenger cars. It combines modern rubber compounds with a carefully crafted tread pattern to give great traction on dry and wet roads.
Firstly, the central rib enhances control and steering. By offering a solid connection between the Nankang NS-II and the road, the central rib ensures that the vehicle responds to steering inputs. Then, the large footprint spreads the vehicle’s weight over a larger surface area, meaning the tire provides better traction on both dry and wet roads. A large footprint also enhances braking performance, allowing the car to stop more quickly and safely. Adding to this, the directional tread pattern is made for good performance, ensuring the Nankang NS-II grips well in different conditions while giving smooth handling and control during everyday driving.
Secondly, the strong sidewalls offer the support to handle different loads and driving conditions. They help the model maintain its shape under pressure, ensuring strength even when carrying passengers or cargo. Also, the open shoulders deliver better control at the maximum speed of 186 mph, depending on size. Furthermore, the deep grooves quickly throw water, reducing the chance of sliding and ensuring the Nankang NS-II remains firmly connected to the road. On dry roads, deep grooves provide stability by allowing the tire to adapt, making the ride smoother. And, this model goes very well with the Honda Accord, Mitsubishi Lancer, and Nissan 200SX. Finally, the available sizes on the US market come in 15'' up to 20'' rim diameter options.
