The NANKANG WS-1 is a studless winter tyre designed for extreme winter driving conditions. The tyre features an external tread pattern combining zig-zag grooves and polygonal blocks to enhance snow traction and control, while the internal straight groove design with a 27.5% groove area ratio promotes stability and superior water drainage. Key technologies include Jagged 3D Sipe Pattern for increased tread rigidity and ice handling performance, plus a tread compound containing hard natural kernel powder that cuts into icy surfaces for improved grip. The WS-1 offers strong ice and snow performance with enhanced drainage for wet conditions, making it suitable for sedans, hatchbacks, compact SUVs, and performance vehicles. Available in sizes from 14 to 21 inches, the tyre provides load indices ranging from 69 to higher ratings and speed ratings typically from Q upward, depending on the specific size variant.
