New Tire suggestions?

Ok, so I have looked everywhere for the 225/45/19's and they are non existent! I am not going back to the OEM's, and I might just upgrade to 20's, but can anyone give me some new tire specs that look good on the OEM 19's? I'm looking at the Vredestein tires, Nitto, Hankook or Kumos? Not sure yet! thanks!

Is this a trick question? Are there not a bunch of posts/threads about different tire choices? Heck, there's a Hankook thread right below yours (at least right now; it will move as more tire threads are posted).

There is a wheel and tire section that is basically dedicated to your generic question.

245/40-19 255/40-19 opens up a lot more options.

Same general over all diameter as oem tires, within three tenths of an inch.
