Nankang Tyres
Nankang Tyres is a Taiwanese tyre manufacturing company that develops tyres of all kinds - from budget to high-performance available worldwide. Over the last 60 years, the company has designed tyres that are affordable, resistant to high heat, have outstanding road grip and look good too. It has a smaller catalogue due to their desire only to supply specialised tyres. Nankang is a pragmatic tyre brand. It is not a Pirelli or Michelin, and that's ok! They have stepped up their game in the product development and quality assurance areas and has become popular with budget-minded Aussies looking to get the most tire for the dollar. Nankang offers SUV, 4x4, light truck tyres designed for all-terrain and all-weather performance. They also produce the TourSport NS N605, an all-season tyre with superior traction and handling for coupes, sedans and minivans. Available on Tyroola, the cornering capabilities, excellent braking and long-lasting tread of the NS N605 has received positive feedback from customers.

Yokohama Tyres
Yokohama is a tyre industry giant founded in Japan in 1917 and is currently the 7th largest tyre manufacturer in the world. It produces sports car performance tyres and is synonymous with motorsport racing and being at the forefront of tyre innovation and technology. Yokohama tyres are used in the World Touring Car Championship among other racing events. They test their tyres on similar, more powerful versions of the regular cars you drive, but at very high speeds and under a lot of stress. This testing helped develop their Advan® line of ultra-high-performance tyres, which give a smooth and comfortable ride with superb handling under all driving conditions. Yokohama also produces the Geolander tyres for SUVs and Crossovers, which are 'Designed to go anywhere' with its long tread life and all-season traction, including in light snow. Yokohama also uses Orange Oil technology that helps the tyre's gripping abilities in wet and dry conditions.

Quick Conclusion
So to summarise, Yokohama and Nankang have produced well-reviewed tyres, and any of their everyday use models would be the ideal choice for your needs. However, the main difference here would be in performance levels. Yokohama's track record for technological innovation, superior handling and tyre durability is hard to match. Nankang may be a much more affordable option price-wise, but their tyres are functional, safe, and well-reviewed. We suggest comparing specific Yokohama models to their closest Nankang counterparts to help make your choice. Both brand's extensive catalogue of tyres, complete with tech specs and even reviews, are available on Tyroola.
