245/35ZR20 TYRE Nankang CRS

Product introduction

The Nankang CRS / CR-S in size 245/35/20 is a road-approved semi-slick tyre designed for sports vehicles, performance-oriented preparations and intensive uses such as trackdays, circuit outings, historic climbs or dynamic driving on the road. It offers an excellent compromise between grip, driving precision and sporty behavior, while remaining possible for use on open roads.

Purpose of the part

The tyre provides the direct connection between the vehicle and the road. On a sports configuration, it plays an essential role in traction, braking, support stability and steering precision. The Nankang CRS / CR-S uses a tread pattern with two large internal circumferential grooves to promote water evacuation, as well as an external zone with a competition-inspired design to improve grip when cornering.

Signs or consequences of a worn or defective tyre

• Loss of grip during acceleration, braking, or while cornering.
• Increased braking distances, particularly on wet surfaces.
• Lack of precision in steering and less rigorous side feeling.
• Irregular wear which may cause vibrations, rolling noise or unstable behavior.
• Increased risk of hydroplaning (aquaplaning) when tread depth becomes insufficient.

Benefits of replacement

• Significant improvement in grip on dry roads and during sporting demands.
• Better water evacuation thanks to wide internal grooves and rounded groove bottom.
• More precise cornering behavior with a rigid sidewall offering a more direct body feel.
• optimised heat management thanks to micro-grooves in the intermediate tread.
• Excellent choice for mixed road and sports leisure use, with road approval.
