Im sure the bloke asking has been through a few sets of tyres since then.

And now they definatly dont there is no use of tuning these cars for power if it doesnt go to the ground. Although it can be alot of fun!!! they are the 19" 245/35 ns2s Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/15454-nankang-ns2-tyres/page/3/#findComment-463242 Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushuteF6 Member 10 Member For: 18y 5m 20d Posted 02/12/06 11:20 AM Share Posted 02/12/06 11:20 AM Tyres - a classic example of you get what you pay for! Tread pattern and compound is the most important thing to go for with your expected driving conditions.Most "name" brands develop new tread patterns and compounds each year and then sell the "old" moulds to cheapo tyre mobs like Nangbangers (or whatever). Trouble is the other "non name" brands use sh*tty compounds. Bottom line - the "name"brands do the R&D and set the standard, the others just follow with cheap immos.I'm not slagging the cheaper brands, well I spose I am, but after travelling 50,000 Ks a year for the last 6 years in everything from a Pursuit to Subaru to a F6 I can only give this advice:1. Grip in dry and wet is paramount.2. Wear is secondary.3. Yoko AVS Sport are simply the best - factory dunlops come a close second.
