cossy tyre advice
what tyres do people rate for a 2wd saff with 18's (tyre size 215 35 18) i run nankang ns2's at the mo. to be honest i dont really drive anywhere near the limits of the car & the nankangs are fine for me. the only real problem with them is i can never get the tyres to seal to the rims. every time they are re sealed they only last for about 2 weeks before they start going down again. could this be a problem with the powder coating on the wheels or the bead of the tyre?

Ref the bead sealing problem.....
I had the same problem a few years ago... seemed every week I was taking the tyres off, cleaning the rim and resealing them. What I ended up doing was removing every single bit of paint from the sealing edge of the rim and smearing silicon on there instead of bead seal..... once I'd done that they never went flat again

wait for it....
NANKANG DITCHFINDERS and they were much better
Should have gone for the T1R, or the 888
