HELLO,

I need your help on deciding whether or not these tires are any good? I realize they are not perilli or dunlop, but I need some inexpensive tire right now. Has anyone ever used this brand before? They are 235/40HR17 NANKANG Tires.

Thanks for any input.

for $350 (approximately the price you'll be paying after shipping) i got a set of 225/50R16 kumho ecsta asx tires. definitely worth more than that.

but there are a lot of options out there around that price. i think yoko avs1000db's go for around that, but check around.

check tirerack.com and edgeracing.com

-you will get better tires for the same price and the shipping is really cheap

I am not concerned about shipping. I can pick them up local. Just interested in the tire quality. How about Falken's? I heard Kumho don't do very well on wet surface? I live in Cali so not too concerned about rain (even though we do get some from time-to-time). Good feedback.
