195/50ZR15 TYRE Nankang CRS

Nankang CRS / CR-S 195/50 ZR15 semi-slick tyre not road approved, designed for exclusively track, trackday and competition use. This high-performance Nankang tyre is aimed at drivers looking for an excellent level of grip, precise steering and stable behavior on the circuit, particularly on light vehicles or sports chassis in 15 inches.

Role of the tire

The tyre provides the direct connection between the vehicle and the track. In sports use, it must effectively transmit traction, braking and lateral forces when cornering. The Nankang CRS / CR-S uses a performance-oriented semi-slick design, with a tread designed to provide grip, stability and good thermal management during heavy loads.

Its interior part incorporates two wide circumferential grooves associated with a rounded groove base, promoting water evacuation on wet tracks or in mixed conditions. The exterior part has a design inspired by rally tyres in order to optimize support grip and trajectory precision.

Consequences of a worn, unsuitable or damaged tyre

• Loss of grip during acceleration, braking, or cornering
• Extension of braking distances on track
• Lack of precision in steering and changes of support
• Faster overheating during intensive sessions
• Irregular wear which can degrade the behavior of the vehicle
• Reduced confidence behind the wheel during sporty driving

Benefits of replacement

• High grip suitable for circuit use
• Rigid sidewall offering excellent body feel
• Increased precision in trajectories and supports
• Efficient temperature rise for sports use
• Better consistency of performance thanks to micro-grooves promoting heat evacuation
• optimised behavior for light vehicles and sharp chassis configurations
