Part function

The tyre provides the direct link between the vehicle and the road. It transmits traction, braking and lateral cornering forces. On a sports vehicle, a semi-slick tyre such as the Nankang CRS allows grip, cornering stability and driving feel to be optimised while retaining approval for road use.

Symptoms or consequences of a worn or unsuitable tyre

Benefits of replacement

• Precise feedback through the steering wheel
