The tires are 215/35/18 Nankang NS2. So now I only have the rear tires with an okay amount of tread left. I can get either brand tire for $80 each. My question is, which tire is better? In terms of brand, quality, durability, etc. I'm pretty sure I'm going with the Nexens just to give them a shot since I'd rather have equal tread all around. So I either buy 2 Nankang tires or 4 Nexen tires. I'm not about to put 2 Nexens up front. I like consistency. I want to know what your thoughts are on both brand tires. Thanks. --------------------

They did rank like #4 in a drift competition performance ranking. -------------------- 94 Celica GT \|Toyota OEM Japan\|Toyota Racing Development\|Tom's\|Competition Clutch\|5Zigen\|Apexi\| \|Laille/Beatrush\|Magnecor\|Denso\|Royal Purple\|Optima\|PIAA\|PW JDM\|Megan Racing\|Nitto\| \|Work\|Greddy\|Samco\|Project Mu\|H&R\|Gates\|Moog\|Rota\|Yokohama\|Epman\|1320\|Upgr8 04 Celica GT \|Toyota OEM Japan\|Toyota Racing Development\|Tein\|BC Racing\|Greddy\| ~~89 Supra (Sold)~~ ~~90 Supra (Sold)~~
