In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from Japan (Starfire) against a tyre from a manufacturer from Taiwan (Nankang). Generally, Nankang winter tyres are slightly better rated (22%) than Starfire (0%). But when it comes to comparing Starfire W200 and Nankang NK Snow SV-2, the rating is the same - 0%. The first tyre test of Starfire W200 was done in 2016, compared to 2015 when was the Nankang NK Snow SV-2 first tested. Important for this comparison is also the Autobild 2016 205/55 R16 test, where both the W200 and the NK Snow SV-2 were tested.
