Does anyone have any opinions on the Nankang NS-I? I'm looking to buy some tires in the next week or two and came across these at a local retailer for pretty cheap. Looking to buy 205/40 and 215/40 for 8" and 9.5" wheels. I thought I'd get some opinions first if anyone has any.

Nankang NS-II

Best budget tire for stretching, no problems at all.

Key Chain runs them, Petis runs them, I run them.

So no opinion on the NS-I's?

From what ive experianced Federal SS 595's and RSR's seem to give a larger stretch than any other tyre ive used there 225/40's stretch and fit like a 235/40 from most other makes. Im running RSR evo's at the moment and the dry grip is staggering but there a little slippery in the wet.
I tend to use Falken 452's wich don't stretch quite as far as the Federals but are close , give a nicer stretched look , they have more grip in the dry than the SS 595 and more grip in the wet and only cost a few £ more.

Falken 512's. Just hit up Discount Tire Direct (tires.com) as they're the only place that carry them now.

Toyo proxies 4 have great stretch!

Anyone ever used RE-11's? I get huge discounts on Bridgestones, so i can get sets of these for cheaper than a set of crap tires.

Continentals are where its at, i have 195/45 R13's on a 13x10j wheel and they're doin well so far

My federals look pretty decent i went with a 205/40 on a 9.5, and they only cost me 235 shipped.

i have a set of s.drives, amazing tire IMO, real nice and grippy, stretch perfectly too.
i stretched a 205/40 on an 8.5 and it was a subtle amount of stretch
and i stretched a 215/40 on a 9.5 and it was a very aggressive nice amount of stretch

mis information to the max

i have tried to throw a 215 35 17 on a 17x9 and it looked like a 225.

if you want to stretch avoid s. drives.

doesn anyone have experience with victra?

I ordered some Achilles Atr yesterday for $309 shipped. (205/45/17 and 215/40/18) Wheels are 17x8.5 and 18x9.5. They supposedly stretch well, and the treadwear is 400 so hopefully they'll last me at least one summer (unlike the 512's)

Does anyone have any experience/opinons on the Sunny SN3800? I'm about to pull the trigger on some new tires (205/40 and 215/40) and came accorss these...

[twastheglow]

Eh, I may just stick with ordering the Nankang's like planned.
