Nankangs are garbage. I had bought some because they were a cheap price. They didnt last long at all. I kept having flat tires. Pay a little more and get a better tire. Hankook is an inexpensive tire but I have had good luck with them

I have Nankang 255/35/20 on my Impala. They seem pretty fine. I've made a 10 hour round trip to Indy and a 27 hour round trip to Atlanta and they ride great and aren't too loud. My car is 4200lbs.

I did have a blow out in one of them. I ran over a large screw and the tire started going flat (didn't know the screw was in there. I stopped at a gas station and put more air in the tire. 20ft later the tire blew out. I also ran over another piece of metal and had to get a tire plugged.

If the roads didn't have all that debris they would be great. 635 mounted and balanced. I'd buy them again. I only drive my car about 6 montha year.

I have nankangs-- 205/40/17's -- Maybe it's my wheels out of round, but these have never been balanced right-- making my rough riding G20 that much worse to take long trips in-- but on the handling side-- they grip well, but not as well as a pirelli or a BF Comp T/A-- Those tires grip well--

The wear is pretty good though, and they are quiet-- Not to mention, I think my new wheels may be out of round-- They're ADR victory's-- and it's a big letdown to buy wheels and find out you got em cheap cuz' they're out of round --

For a cheap tire, they're fine--
