325/30ZR20 TYRE Nankang CRS

Product introduction

The Nankang CRS / CR-S tyre in size 325/30/20 is a road-approved semi-slick designed for powerful sports vehicles, performance preparations and intensive use on dynamic roads, trackdays, historic climbs or leisure driving on circuits. Developed to offer a high level of grip and excellent driving precision, it is aimed at drivers looking for a sports tyre capable of withstanding strong lateral and thermal stresses.

Purpose of the part

The tyre provides the direct connection between the vehicle and the road. On a sports car, it plays an essential role in traction, braking, cornering stability and steering feel. The Nankang CR-S uses a competition-style tread with a reinforced structure to improve grip, sidewall rigidity and precision during high-speed support.

Its two large circumferential grooves located on the inner part of the tread promote water evacuation. Combined with an optimised wall angle and a rounded groove bottom, they help to improve behavior on wet surfaces while maintaining the performance expected of a sporty semi-slick.

Symptoms or consequences of a worn or defective part

• Loss of grip during acceleration, braking, or cornering.
• Extension of braking distances, especially on wet roads.
• Deterioration of steering feel and lack of precision in support.
• Irregular wear which may cause vibrations, rolling noise or unstable behavior.
• Increased risk of aquaplaning if the grooves are too worn.
• Decrease in performance during circuit use or intensive sports driving.

Benefits of replacement

• Improved grip on dry roads and during sporty driving.
• Better stability during strong cornering.
• Rigid sidewall offering a more precise and direct body feel.
• optimised water evacuation thanks to large internal grooves.
• Thermal management improved by the micro-grooves of the intermediate tread.
• Design inspired by competition tyres for increased handling.
• Road approved tyre, suitable for mixed use on sports roads and leisure circuits.
