	====Yokohama ~~Advan Neova~~====		Single piece, light alloy roadwheels, in various styles, were fitted with Pirelli P Zero tyres, engineered to provide the optimum balance of ride and handling characteristics. Pirelli P Zero's were the recommended tyres for use on the vehicle under normal road conditions.

			Pirelli ceased manufacture of the P Zero however, and Group Lotus recommend the Yokohama C-Drive as their replacement<ref>[http://www.pistonheads.com/lotus/default.asp?storyId=14825 PistonHeads - Grippy tyre for the Elise released]</ref>. Note that the only way to mix tyres is with a pair of P Zeros on the front and a pair of C-Drives on the back.

			You can find the official range of tyres for Lotus Cars from the S1 Elise onwards on the [http://www.lotuscars.com/gb/ownership/wheelsbrakes-suspension Lotus Cars - Wheels, Brakes & Suspension] page.

Although the base model Elise was originally supplied with narrower, 185/55R15 and 205/50R16 tyres, the use of the wider 195/50R15 and 225/45R16 wheels used on the 111S and other models has become very common. Even the Yokohama Advan Neova tyres, which are now the OE fitment tyres for all S1 Elises, are only available in this wider fitment.

The S1 Exige uses larger diameter wheels, and therefore for tyre options you should refer to the [[Tyres - S2]] Wiki entry.
