Looking for tires for 23 inch rims

[LGHTNGfeverUAE]

Hiya

What high perfromance tire options do you have for na '00 L with 23 x 10 inch rims? 305 or 295 would be best.

Do you have anything that fits?

thanks

Thank you for the post.

Tire size 305/35-23 is the most ideal size to run. You can get away with say a 285/35-23 but the tire models produced in this size do not carry the sufficent load index for your L and is not recommended. The 305/35-23 size however is going to be 3" taller in rolling diameter when compared to the factory 295/45-18 size which means you may have to make some fender mods depending on the offset of the wheels.

Thanks for the reply - that sounds perfect. The car is lowered and the fenders have been adjusted, we may just adjust the ride height slightly for the tires as it runs on 295's at the moment to ensure adequate clearance.

What Brands do you have in these sizes? Nitto's would be nice....

Hi Matt

That tire looks a bit tame and more like an SUV tire than something for 500 - 600hp lightning.

I have seen the following online:

* Nitto 555 extreme 295/30 R23
* Yokahama Advan s/t V102 305/35 R23

Do you have any of these in stock or can source them? I think these will fit....

Nitto does not produce there NT555 in any 23" wheel sizes but the Advan ST is produced in the 305/35-23 size. We do not stock this model but we can order it in for you. Our current mail order price per tire is $429.00 per tire with FREE delivery.

Is this not the correct size?

295/30/R23 XL104W AA NITTO NT555 EXTREME TIRES

Perhaps its old stock?

I called Nitto and they used to produce the NT555 in this size but it has been discontinued and is no longer in production or available.
