Why Choose Nankang?
Founded in 1959 as one of the first tire manufacturers in Taiwan, Nankang quickly gained credibility for producing quality tires at an affordable price. In recent years, the Nankang competition tire offerings have been a go-to for enthusiasts, becoming prevalent at autocross, time attack, and other high-performance driving events. Nankang continues establishing itself as a trusted brand, serving over 100 markets globally with a diverse range of products, from passenger and commercial vehicles to motorcycles and specialized military applications.
The two most popular options from Nankang are the CR-S and AR-1. The CR-S is Nankang’s 200 treadwear offering, utilizing an outside tread shoulder resembling a racing slick tire. This design yields the extreme grip and handling characteristics of a racing slick without sacrificing wet surface performance. The AR-1 is the 100 treadwear option, which employs a unique semi-slick compound blend aiding rapid warm-up and maintaining consistent operating temperatures. Optimized tread and sidewall designs on AR-1 and CR-S make for a wider contact patch, improving grip and stability at high speeds.
