Fitment comes from each tire's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

Yokohama ADVAN APEX V601 235-45-18 Nissan Skyline V35 17,000 miles February 13, 2026
I changed to these tires as the ones that came on the car when I bought the car back at 88400KM didn't look the greastest. However these ones have gone through the Australian summer and are still holding up to great control. I have gone through heavy rain and some of the hottest days, not once did they loose traction. if you are looking for cheap BUT decent rubber for your car I would recommed them

Achilles ATR Sport 225-40-19- Nissan Skyline V35 15,000 miles November 4, 2020
All the reviews you read here are true. Although they last well and are quite good on the dry the wet grip is terrible. Very easy to spin the tires coming from a stop (although fun when done on purpose) but loosing it on the wet and have even hydroplaned on a highway/motorway so I have absolutely no trust in them when there's any sign on water.

Dunlop SportMaxx RT 225-40-19- Nissan Skyline V35 12,000 miles September 3, 2019
I got these tires as a temporary substitute when I changed my wheels. They were excellent in the dry and very good in the wet. The Dunlops also made the car quieter overall. Very little noise. I noticed too that the more they wore, the stickier they got. The sidewalls on these isn't as hard as the previous tires, but the all out grip was impressive none the less. I would definitely buy a new set, but the price and availability make it hard to get.

Accelera Alpha 225-45-17- Nissan Skyline V35 500 miles November 8, 2013
These are lethal. Had these fitted as a stop gap due to an MOT failure for inside wear on 2 tires front and back and didn't have funds for decent replacements. My car is rear wheel drive and I fell off the road a number of times in wet conditions at moderate speed, mostly around roundabouts, accelerating out of junctions on turns etc. It is like driving in snow. They were constantly losing pressure from day one. Took to garage who demonstrated in water tank air leakage from seal on the inside on all 4. Not only that but damaged the rims on all 4 wheels as well. I learnt the hard way and these tires cost me £2000 as I had to replace wheels and tires. Now using Avon ZZ3 which are excellent.

Achilles ATR Sport 235-35-18- Nissan Skyline V35 5,000 miles June 30, 2013
These tires are ok in the dry, but in the wet they are extremely dangerous and could quite easily cause an accident if your not on the ball and can drive a car very well.
Roundabouts are a death trap with these tires, and nursing it around is the only safe way to drive with these tires.
The braking test from 100km/hr was appalling and could hardly feel the seat-belt load on my chest, and the ABS was working overtime, you would want to stop quickly if someone stepped out in front of you. These tires should be banned in Australia with no question about it, these have the potential to kill someone very easily indeed. The compound is the issue, but tread pattern is fine for dispersing water.

Federal SS595 SUPER STEEL 235-40-18- Nissan Skyline V35 July 19, 2010
Had these tires on my 200sx and that didn't really notice the noise - maybe due to the exhaust and what not, but I must say they weren't that bad... But since I put these tires onto my v35, wow are they noisy. Lots of whurring noise above 30kmph and when braking to come to a stop, there is a huge droning noise.

Not sure, but maybe these tires don't like being put onto heavier cars?

In terms of performance, grip and handling was great in the 200sx, but feels a little unresponsive and light in the v35.
