C63s Sedan Tyres

Hi boys,

As you all know the c63s sedan comes with 245/35r19 front and 265/35r19 rear tyres. Ive gone upto 265/35 and 285/35 michelin pilot super sport 2 years back. Today, my two front 265s are worn out but im facing difficulties finding the tyres, this sucks! Following are the combinations i found:

1: going back to stock sizes which i dont want to! But the problem is fronts will be 245/35 ps4s and rears will be 265/35 pss

2: changing fronts to 255/35 Ps4s and keeping the rears 285/35 PSS (ratio will change - 30 difference between front and back as well as two different tyre series)

3: changing front to 255/35 PS4S and rear to 275/35 PSS (different tyre series between front and back)

what would you guys recommend?

Perfect situation would be to keep 265 and 285 but change them to ps4s but i cannot manage to find them in our market.

Bein RWD you can have different tires front and back

Once my fronts wear out I'll be doing 255/35 Ps4s on them also.

Rears anything is a step up from pss (they dont hook at all from a stop)

i agree but the issue is that the 275/35 PS4S are out of stock therefore i have to mix and match. The question is, shall the rears be PSS or PS4, although i never heard of the PS4 🤐

I plan on going up one size front and rear with PS4S when the time comes. The PSS's in the rear are easily overpowered, even in 3rd.
