for what ur running scott. id said buy nt-05

if u want a really sticky tire. buy nt-01. but the nt-01 arent the best read wear. but they grip like hell.

i dont know if u need an all around tire or just dry performance tire.

and what size rim ur running. and wheel spacers. etc.

245 wont fit the SS/SC rim

245 are made to fit an 8-9.5 in rim

ss/sc rim is 7in. ss/tc rim is 7.5

they barely fit mine.


soooo. I know people who run 225 and 235.

got to think about the contact patch. but i think ull b fine with 235.

i can get u pricing on tires.

do u want stricly dry performance? all around performance?

itll be good man

im running 245's (which are way to big and are rubbing)

but those size ttires are made for 8-9.5 in rim. stock tc rim is 7.5

it will be good.

225/40/R18 invos. you will like them a lot
