225/50/18
 
Looking to buy a new tires for my roadster
225/50/18 front. 245/45/18 rear
Need dry/wet traction
245/45/18 have great selection but
225/50/18 have terrible choices and it’s hard
To find a match especially in the ultra all season
Any advice
Thank you

I'm getting new tires in the spring (I have the same size). I'm most likely going with Firestone Firehawk Indy 500. Those tires are readily available at TireRack and 1010tires.

Are you considering going a little bigger? I'm thinking of going with 235 and 255. It increases the overall diameter slightly but within range.

I doubt it. I did run Front 285/35/19 and Rear 325/30/19 rear on Factory Nismo wheels with no issues. Our cars can fit very large tires with no effort at all.
Your tires must be less the 3% difference front to rear diameter wise or you will have issues.
