Has anyone tried these Nankang tyres? Fully fitted at £127 a corner.

Interesting but 80% aspect ratio. Do they do a 7.50 R16 as well ?

Sadly not.

Actually they do, and under £100.

I once had a set of Nankangs on one of mine. Very solid, chunky tyres. Good all-rounder, a bit dicy if you cornered fast in the wet (like they all do). Wear well. I then went over to Avon Rangemasters, behaved very similarly.

Thanks, I think I will push the boat out and go for the Michelin Latitude Cross, I can get four of them fitted and balanced for £792. That's what is on there at the moment, but they are 14 years old and the sidewalls are all cracking.
