I've found AR-1's almost as quick as Kumho V70A.
Maybe Nankang have varying quality batches?

Interesting. I have a feeling I own a set of tyres you sourced. I bought a set of 185/60 14 Nankangs mounted on black NA8 rims, second hand from Beresfield. The previous owner mentioned he sourced them from someone who sounds like you.
