Product description & features

Designed to meet the needs of modern performance cars, the AS-2+ blends dynamic handling with practical everyday comfort.
It performs exceptionally well in warm weather while also improving fuel economy through its advanced construction.
The Sportnex AS-2 is available in 16-inch to 22-inch rim sized tyres.
 

Wide Sectional Grooves

The tread features expanded central grooves that channel water away from the contact patch rapidly.
This helps preserve grip on wet roads and reduces the risk of aquaplaning at speed.
 

3D Simulation Tread Optimisation

Using advanced simulation software, the tyre's design was refined to minimise rolling resistance and maximise contact with the road.
The result is a more fuel-efficient and responsive driving experience.

Please note: before you select your tyres, ensure that the tyre size you intend to order is the correct variant and matches your vehicle type.

These tyres seems to grip even better in the rain, and in South Wales it's proper rain, not just "London drizzle". Was driving to and from work in the most recent Storm Arwen, and felt safe and really connected to the road!

The grip is excellent and tyre noise acceptable. The wear is also acceptable I am getting 20000 miles on a set of these tyres on the front and 25000 on the back on a 2 tonne 3.0 diesel car with four wheel drive.

This review is about the rear tyres I purchased twelve months ago but I have only today replaced the same brand and size front tyres after 20 months and over 15000 miles and they still had three millimetres of tread on them. They are quieter than most other brands, offer excellent grip and comfort in all conditions, are just as durable / long lasting and are half the price of the leading brands.

My car is a Quattro with permanent four wheel drive so new tyres on either axle really make a difference. As the car has a 60% rear wheel bias I can feel the increased grip after changing the rear tyres.

Honestly these tyres lasted 5 months if that I now have a different set of tyres on the front since buying these, they last longer on the back due to being a front wheel drive. In the wet they are absolutely horrendous no grip what so ever.
