Nitto NT05 availability
FYI - I purchased a set of Nitto NT05's for the stock Z06 wheels on 11-11-14 from DTD, they're just shipping as of this morning...were on backorder. If you were looking to purchase them now may be a good time as it looks like they have fresh stock, so they're available and freshly manufactured not sitting in a warehouse rotting...

I called a few discount tire shops in Socal yesterday and they were all able to have them for me within 3 days. I think they need to update the website because they are available. If not, you can request a 305/35/18 or even a 315/35/18.

That is good to hear. I hope they are available in the Spring. I am in Florida for the winter and the car is up north in storage. Does the 305 work out OK on stock wheels?

Yes, 305 will mount fine on stock rear rims. We won't know if these are new production tires until we hear/see date codes on them. Those could be old stock.

I would be very happy to have someone show me that a 305 or 315 is available in an 18" rim size
