Default Nitto NT05

Does anyone know if Nitto will be manufacturing the NT05 in a 335mm 18" 30/35?

Has the tire been out for a long time?

Thanks Rich

I'd have to say that it's doubtful. I'm hoping Michelin decides to make the Super Sport in all the PS2 sizes.

It's been out for a few years at least.

If they haven't made that size yet I wouldn't expect them to now.

Many seem to like the Falken 615 Azenis. Not sure on sizes but it seems that 200 TW events, it's NT05, or these Falkens, or the KDW comprising the vast majority.

Thanks Dave, appreciate the help.

Its not looking good for the 18" crowd looking for 335s. The Falkens go to 315.
I guess the only choice is the KDW. Starting to make me wonder why I spent 1100 bucks on a wheel.

Pilot sport 2s come in a 335/30/18 but it does seem that choices are slim for wide tires with 18" rims. There are a few more options with the 19s
