Nankang xr-611 225/50/r15

[Airborne]

Sorry all, car tires again but you all talked me into it

I found a thread on this tire somewhere in here but i'm buggered if i can re-find it.

Anyway so finally decided to go car tire on the stuffed rear Kenda 7000km, dealer said no to anything other than Kenda or the Nankang and the nankang only because it is suited to the Spyder, thing is from my research on it, it's a car tire so why more suitable than any other car tire???? Dealer and distributor both can't answer the question but it's the only car tire the'll mount.

My real question here though is anyone had any experience with them, i've ordered it anyway as i can't find any other car tire in this size here in oz but how have you found them, Gotta be better than a Kenda, i hope. AB

Maaaaaate.....if your dealer will do a Nankang......go for it. There are a few running them out here. I only wish the other Aussie shops would do the same, because I would then have Nankang on mine. :2thumbs:

Yep, got me stuffed, they just seem to put them in the same category as a Kenda, Go figure!

Anyone else had experience with these tires?
