Default New Michelin Pilot Super Sport 4S for 2016 IS200T Fsport

Hi everyone, does anyone knows where I can order the new Michelin Pilot Super Sport 4S tires for 2016 IS 200T F-Sport?
I know they have the older Pilot Super Sport, but they discontinued those and replace them with the new 4S. I tried to look everywhere but I couldn't find any place that sell the new 4S for my 2016 IS200T Fsport.

Unfortunately, the 4S is not offered in your size (I believe your F Sport has the 18s 225/40r18 and 255/35r18). You'll need to grab a pair of OEM rims or aftermarket rims that the 4S is offered in. In regards to Michelin, you're stuck with the Super Sports or the Sport A/S3+.

Er, bigger rims from Lexus. Something like the 19s off an IS-F or an RC with the 19s.

But my IS can only take 18's rim. And why are 19's rim OEM? and not 18s? Im confused. Aren't all rims come with the car are OEM?

you can still buy PSS, they arent going anywhere

PS4S isnt a huge upgrade over PSS, similar dry traction, much improved wet traction and better treadwear
