The Brand

Nankang Rubber Tire Corporation is a Taiwanese manufacturer and the country's first domestic tyre producer, with roots in a Taipei rubber plant dating to the mid-1940s and reorganisation into its current form in 1959. It builds a full range from touring and SUV tyres to winter and competition rubber, and is especially known among enthusiasts for its semi-slick track tyres. It suits budget-conscious drivers and club motorsport competitors seeking grip at an accessible price.

The Pattern
NS-2R

A semi-slick track and road tyre built for enthusiasts who want strong dry grip at a keen price.

The Nankang NS-2R is a semi-slick tyre aimed at track days and spirited road driving, offering high levels of dry grip and a stiff, responsive feel. It has been chosen as a control tyre for several UK and European club racing championships, valued for its consistency over an endurance run. Grip builds once the tyre is warm, and the breakaway is progressive and easy to read. Most sizes come in a road-biased compound, with grippier motorsport and drift options in selected fitments.

  • Semi-slick design for track days and spirited road use
  • Strong dry grip with progressive, predictable breakaway
  • Stiff sidewall for sharp turn-in and high-speed stability
  • Proven as a control tyre in club motorsport championships
  • Choice of road, motorsport and drift compounds across the range
Best for Track day cars and enthusiast road drivers
