Nankang Firmness

[Rick]

Just need some advice,decided to give the nankang ns-2r a go as next tyre but wondering whether to go 225 or 215 on standard 200 cup rims. Firmness is my major concern is there going to be much difference between the 225 at 94 and the 215 at 91 or is the extra footprint worth it?

The 225 and 215 are not much different in performance. They are slightly wider than normal sized tyres as they have the straighter side wall.

If your car is lowered on springs on coilovers then stick to the 215 as the increased side wall height of the 225 can cause rubbing to occur.

Can also do you good prices on the Nankangs: http://www.cazanracing.co.uk/tyres-7489-c.asp

Cheers. Yep I'll be coming to you expect my order imminently. Probs go 225 as they are £50 less for four and I'm not lowered. If I was considering spacers would that affect it?

I'm on the 225's on standard suspension. Think they look better and love the tyre. No rubbing. Defiantly worth it.
