FAQs
What type of vehicles is the NANKANG CW-25 designed for?
The NANKANG CW-25 is designed for light commercial vehicles, including vans and trailers.
What are the main benefits of the zigzag groove design?
The zigzag groove design helps to minimize road noise, contributing to a quieter and more comfortable ride, and also enhances road contact.
How does the CW-25 improve tire longevity?

What does 'C' in the tire size like 145 R12C mean?
The 'C' designation indicates that the tire is a commercial tire, built with heavier construction to handle higher loads and demands typical of commercial vehicles.
Where can I find the correct tire pressure for my vehicle?
The recommended tire pressure for your vehicle can be found on a sticker usually located on the driver's side doorjamb, in the glove compartment, or in your vehicle's owner's manual.
Troubleshooting
Premature or uneven tire wear
Check tire inflation pressure, ensure proper wheel alignment and balancing. Rotate tires regularly as per maintenance schedule.

Ensure tires are properly seated on the rim and balanced. Check for any debris lodged in the tread grooves. If noise persists, consult a tire professional.
Poor handling or steering response
Verify tire inflation pressure. Check wheel alignment. Ensure the tires are the correct size and load rating for the vehicle.
Tire shows signs of damage (cuts, bulges)
Immediately cease using the tire and have it inspected by a qualified tire professional. Do not attempt to repair damaged tires.
