I recently replaced my rear tires on my stock 2004 350z touring couple with Michelin PS2s (235/50/17) and am now looking to do the same for my front tires. Unfortunately, I cannot find PS2s in the front tire size (225/50/17). What am I missing? I have read numerous threads recommending it, but not sure if I need a different size.

Thanks.Somehow I don't see them on tirerack when I was looking, but I'll check again.
Any chance anybody knows if tire stores carry them? I've checked with Costco's auto center as well as Sears, and neither seems to carry them for the front tire size.
Need to still check Discount tire and a couple others. I rather buy at a store than online.
Also, what's the difference between Pilot A/S and PS2? I thought that's 2 different types of tires?

I'm not stepping down to 17". I've always had 17" so I'm looking to simply keep it that way.
Would you recommend the Exalto over the PS2? i'm trying to read the comparison threads between the PS2 and Pilot A/S. They seem to be two different tires. I have not heard of the Exalto until now.

Sorry what I meant was that when you shop around and start searching for 17s you will see more Exalto's. I don't have any experience with them but users give good comments:

I have exactly the same situation, trying to find the best combination of PS2 sizes for stock 17" wheels. After a lot of reading, I'm leaning toward a 235/45/17 and 245/45/17 combination. They're both have smaller diameters than the stock tires (about 1.5% smaller in front, and 2.5% smaller in rear), but have about 0.3" difference between front and back, which should be OK. I would like to hear from other members about their recommendations.
