175/50's hancooks, nice stretch too :D

165/50s on the front

175/50's on the rear :D

I'd not trust Nangkangs on my shoes, let alone my car.

nankangs!!!

i hate my nagkangs but they came with my wheels and i figure if i run them this summer i can replace them next year with something decent!

stay away from the nangkangs if you can!

They don't call'em ditchfinders without reason.

lol! Nangkangss. They're awful in the wet, can't get no traction in 1st pulling away and god forbid if you come across a corner.

What else could I get? I'm running 7 and 8's, I love the stretch of the 185's.... But the only make that do them are...Nangkangss.

Indeed, don't run with Nankangs. I really rate Toyo's and I'd personally go for 185/45's for a bit extra girth with a tiny bit of a stretched look.

bUT THE 185/45's are like gold dust to find as iv just been told bt me tyre supplier!

I used to run 6.5x15’s with 165/50’s and 7.5x15’s with 185/45/15’s.

Both sets were Nankang – I didn’t find them too bad!

Sorry I don’t have any close ups, but it should give you an idea.

As for gold dust…There on mytyres for £31ea ;)

Yup. lol I was thinking of 175/50 on the fronts(7")... 195/45 opn the rear(8"), Both work out exactly the same rolling radius.
