PS4S out of stock, next best option?

Like the title says, I can't seem to find an available set of PS4S shoes for my 2017 M2. They're out of stock until around June at my usual go-to places (Tire Rack and Discount Tire). Don't want to make the jump up to Cup 2s because I live in Colorado and try to get the car out as much as possible during shoulder season. OEM Pilot Super Sports are in stock, along with Conti Extreme Contact Sports and Sport Contact 6s. Looking for some feedback on what my best options are. Thanks!

I ordered a set of 245/35/19 for my other vehicle about 1.5 months ago through Tire Rack. Due date was June as well. Ended up getting them in a month. The sooner you get on the list the better as it seems Michelin is releasing small batches. Also check Amazon. I had no idea they sold tires with Prime as well. Seen PS4S randomly in and out of stock in our sizes.

Any issues with the wider track tires throwing up too many rocks? This sounds like the best solution, I just don't want to sandblast my rocker panel.

No problem. Still fit in the wheel arches.

You're in Colorado. It is "unlikely" to ever be cold enough for more than the odd day that Cup2s won't warm up within 10 minutes...

This week, there were several days when I got in the car and the tyre pressure monitoring system said the tires were at freezing point. They were warm to the touch 20 minutes later with the air temperature still being only a few degrees above freezing. Cup2 all round...

You should email them, they're very very supportive (Tire Rack)
When I realized 2 of my 4 wheels were backordered they actually found a pair in another warehouse and shipped the next day. Tire Rack really is great.

Here is a long thread on increasing the tire size to 255/35/19 and 275/35/19. That is the way I went when ordering new tires.

Also went with this set-up and ordered PS4S from Discount Tire Direct around mid March and got them delivered in a week time frame. The car looks better and have very little rub on full lock only on reverse and I'm running 10mm spacers all around.

You're on stock suspension otherwise, right?

MPS at the recommended ride height - so a bit more camber than stock
