Nissan Skyline Tyres
The Nissan Skyline began a multi-decade run that produced saloons and coupés, from classic rear-wheel-drive to later variations focused on performance. Typical Nissan Skyline tyres should have reliable grip and braking with good steering control to accommodate everyday use with a focus on performance. With a focus on comfort, low road noise and resistance, and a bit of durability for long ranges, touring tyres would work quite well.
The Nissan Skyline features a broad array of engine options and configurations, driving a range of specific tyre needs. The size, load index, and speed rating of the Nissan Skyline tyres should be confirmed against the tyres themselves and the vehicle’s registration and manual. Approved specifications of the tyres support braking systems, ride control and comfort, and safety for the particular Nissan Skyline.
Drivers of a Nissan Skyline can find and compare tyres based on features, price, and brand on Tyres.co.uk, and can also book a fitting appointment at the local fitting centre.
Nissan Skyline tyres available at Tyres.co.uk include the Michelin Pilot Sport 5 (97Y XL) and Bridgestone Potenza Sport (97Y) in 245/40ZR18 for the R34 Skyline GT-R, including V·spec and V·spec II. Different Skyline generations have different factory fitments, so check the registration, placard, load index, and speed rating before purchasing.
Size specifications for Nissan Skyline tyres are located on the tyre-pressure placard on the driver door, located on the right side for Japanese-market Skylines. The placard shows original tyre specs and pressures; if it is not there, consult the handbook. The sidewall of the tyre also specifies the size, but it could be indicative of aftermarket wheels.
Nissan Skyline models do not require four tyres to be replaced. In rear-wheel-drive models, tyres should be replaced on an axle pair basis; if two new tyres are fitted, UK safety guidance recommends fitting them to the rear axle. Four-wheel-drive models, GT-Rs and Skyline versions require tyres of the same type to be fitted on all four wheels, thus all four should be replaced if matching cannot be done.
