Product description & features
The Nankang Sportnex NS-20 is a symmertrical car tyre designed with 4 wide tread blocks to drain water from the road surface, improving the handling and braking abilites of the tyre in wet conditions.
A silica tread compound with sub-straight grooves on the shoulder help to reduce the risk of uneven tread wear - leaving the tyre with a consistent and balanced performance throughout its lifetime.
Cabin noise caused by the rolling of the tyre at high speeds is reduced thanks to lateral kerfs and sipes along the edge of the tyre.
What are summer tyres?
Summer tyres are specifically designed for warm weather conditions, particularly during the summer season. This type of tyre performs best when in seasons with warmer temperatures - above 7°C.
How does a summer tyre perform better in summer?
The technologies and tread patterns used in a summer tyre mean the tyres have high-quality features that are of benefit to driving in warm conditions. They typically use a softer rubber compound – designed for good grip and traction when driving on dry and wet roads.
Can you use summer tyres in winter?
Whilst summer tyres still offer adequate performances in wet and cooler conditions, it is recommended that you change. The tread design and technologies that are featured in summer tyres can harden in colder temperatures, resulting in reduced flexibility and decreased traction on snow and ice.
