Michelin announced last month that it will leave the GT500 class at the end of the season, leaving the two NISMO-run Z entries in need of a new tyre supplier for 2024 and beyond.
Bridgestone has been mooted as the most obvious alternative given its position as GT500’s dominant tyre maker, as well as its past relationship with NISMO, which it previously supplied from the inception of the JGTC in the 1990s until 2012 (except 2010).
