Falken 512 or Nankang 215x35x18 which one is narrower?

Nankang or Falken 512 which one is narrower in the real world.....anybody with experience with both ?


Thanks

only experienced the falken and they stretch pretty nice, they wear fast and bubble though

go with nankang

^^^^^ what he said

nankangs stretch nice.

I have ran both, but only the nankangs in the mentioned size....is one narrower than the other........or does anybody know if they make a 195/35/18

I say falken.
 
too bad nankang doesnt offer all specs on site. you can email or call them for section width.
 
falkens section width on tire you mentioned is 8.6, the narrower the section width the more stretch youll get.
 
I had nankang for less than a 10 min before I turned around and took em back

I have to say Nankangs do suck, Noisy as all hell . I usually run Falkens I see myself swapping them out real soon . I hear Fuzion tires stretch pretty nice and have less road noise

nitto 555  ftw

i have nexens right now they arnt that bad.

I only run nankans on mycar because of how they stretch and their durability/wear charactoristics. while I have never had a falken last me over three weeks, they ride nicer and are quieter. They are wider than the nankangs though

nankang.. my friend just got 215 40 18 on 9.5 wide wheels and man looks sick.. crazy stretch

Those Falken ZE-512's are more narrow compared to the Nankang NS-2's

I've had both.

I've never had a brand new ZE-512 so I would not be able to tell you how well they were. When I put a 205/40/17 on a 17x9 it already had a bubble in it. I had a 225/35/19 and didn't even bother to put them on my 19x10 because it had a rip in the bead. But yeah the ZE-512 is going to stretch more.

Thanks for all your help.......I can get the  nankang for 120 dollars a set cheaper...just trying to decide.

i currently have 512 and the strech is awesome
