Good info. I was looking at the NT05s as well and those were the only sizes they made. Any more feedback would be great!

a big plus for me regarding the 235's is that they will fit on my 17x8 emotions in the front, and later this summer when i switch to non-stag emotions i can still use them if they have meat left
