Product description & features

The Nankang NA-1 is a summer passenger car tyre designed to enhance safety whilst driving on wet roads. It features four main circumferential grooves designed to evacuate water from the contact patch. During braking or cornering, the fine slits that cross the grooves come into contact with the damp road providing additional grip. The NA-1 is designed to provide high speed stability on the motorway.

The tyre design serves to reduce road noise. The tread blocks are spaced at different intervals and a specific pitch sequence. The NA-1 comes in higher load ratings for heavier passenger cars. The sidewall marking of the tyre will indicate the load rating for the intended vehicle. The Nankang NA-1 is available at Tyres.co.uk.

Highlights

  • Four water-clearing grooves
  • Fine slits for wet grip
  • High-speed motorway stability
  • Reduced road noise

Tyre review for Nankang NA-1 165/70R14 85T XL
I got the car back on the road later than I usually do this time around - I've taken it out just twice so far. The grip is very impressive. It handles like my old semi-track tyres. I haven't tested it in the rain yet.

Tyre review for Nankang NA-1 165/70R14 85T XL
It seems that these are simply a substitute for the originals that came with the car. I don't think they provide the best grip when it's cold. In the rain or frost, they seem to spin a bit too fast on take off, and sometimes even in second gear (I could be pushing the pedal too hard). I worry about how they will perform in the snow though. Apart from that, the car drives well in the wet, my fuel consumption has not increased, and the road noise is the same. Considering the price, I will leave things like this for the time being.

Tyre review for Nankang NA-1 165/70R14 85T XL
Now that the car has returned to its original tyre size from the 1970s, they offer excellent grip and look amazing.
