Nt05 & Nt555

Am I crazy or does Nitto not make 19" sizes in the NT05 & NT555? I am looking for 295/30/19 but would settle for 285/30/19 or possibly 305/30/19. I can't find anything in that size....have only found a 275.

No they dont.

Your best bet for wicked traction in a street tire is the Bridgestone Re-11, they hook better than NT05 and NT555. They make them in 305 and 285.

Or you can go Micky Thompson ET Streets which also come in 305/35/19 I believe.

Both those tires only go up to a 275/30/19. The Nitto INVO goes higher though.

I may try those brigestone RE-11 with 10MM spacer since the Mickey Thompson probably isn't advised in wet weather and the "35" series wouldn't match up with my fronts.

have heard they are not as tall, less shoulder than the PSS. wonder if I could do the 285/35/19 (I have shaved/modified fenders. From what I have read a 285/35/19 has less or same sidewall as a 295/30/19. a 295/30/19 PSS fills my wheels well up completely but they have huge shoulders, wonder if I could get a 305/35/19 in the RE-11. Below is the 295/30/19 PSS
