I posted in the "wheels" section here but thought I'd try here too. I'm looking around for 19" tires on the net. I've found a set of rims I like, but haven't bought them yet because I want to price out tires first. I've found some cheap ones out there that are about $100 a tire. They are Nankang NS 2, treadwear 200AA ZR rating, and Lexani N3000, treadwear 340AAA 93Y XL rating. I know you get what you pay for but has anyone every used either of them? I'm looking for any type of feed back.

I just can't see paying $275+ per tire like some of the name brands. There's no way it cost that much to make them, but I know it's about demand. I had your thought $100 a tire and I'll only be running them a few months a year because of the lovely midwest weather.

The Nankang is actually a decent tire, I ran them for a bit.
Make sure you stay FAR away from the Wanli brand!! They come up on Ebay from time to time. I had 4 of them blow out all in a 2 week span. The sidewalls on them gave out.

Federals are cheaper and I read that they are very good tires.
