One of my Nankangs As1 was damaged on its side while falling into a hole. It was imposible to repair it. I used Michelins and they were tougher than these Nankangs.

I bought new set of Nankangs AS1 for my BMW E38 after I had very bad experience with tyres from well-known brands. Size: 2x 235/50R18 and 255/45R18 and honestly I can say that the only thing that i regret atm is that I bought Nankangs that late.... New, fresh rubber causes that the tyres grip very well to the dry tarmac. I tested them in corners in speeds of 100MPH but it makes no impression on Nankangs. Before buying Nankangs I double-checked if these tyres are worth my risk... I can trully say that there is nothing to fear of. They are very easy to balance. Many people say that it is imposible to buy better tyres in that price. Nankang company produces tyres for almost half of a century so they have quite big experience. I was a bit affraid that they will be to noisy, but no huge noise is being generated by them. I highly recomend them.

An excellent tire flawless with avoidance capabilities on dry or wet simply exceptional, regular wear of the tread is very good (on the front of a diesel they'll flirt with the qashqai 30 000km) .I was so glad I spent all web sellers to find him. On my far better vehicle than the rises of origin (the owner of Qahsqai with wear very pronounced outer tread front and rear will now know that their frame is fine but the original tires are lousy on this point) I highly recommend it and I hope that the site will follow this model.

I am a happy owner of Nankang AS1. I was searching for my tires for quite a long time after I decided to buy Nankangs. Im very pleased. Tyre looks very attractive. It has a very nice asyetric tread and the rim protector. I had no problems with balancing them. These tyres are very silent. they behave well in every condition even at high speeds. Very comfortable. I cannot say anything about the tread durability, but the rubber looks realy tough. I wear them on my Audi A3 in the size of 225/45R17. It is hard to find anything better in that price.

Damn, I didn't expect too much from such a cheap tyre. They are just perfect for me. I have Mini and I drive in the city mainly and I am 100% satisfied :)

very good tyre for city driving. My car handles very good. No skids. No noise. I had no problems with balancing. Nankangs As1 are worth buying.

Realy nice tyre, I didn't expect that. Nankang As1 seem to be tough, and it behaves well in every condition. Mainly, I drive in the city so I dont pay too much attention to things like noise level etc. These tyres seem not-problematic at all.

Since I wear Nankang AS1 my car isn't affraid of wet and dry roads. In my opinion it makes no sense to overpay and to buy much more expensive tyres. These tyres are perfect for long distances and they guarantee very nice driving comfort.
