Default Best tires to fit 22's ( Michelin Ps2 ?? )

WALD P11F

The Front rim is 9” wide.
Rear rim is 10” wide.


This is factory spec for LS460L:
Front: 245/45-19 / diameter: 28”
Rear: 245/45-19 / diameter: 28”
My target is :
Front: 245/30-22 / diameter: 27.9”
Rear: 295/25-22 / diameter: 27.8”

Problem is Michelin Dont come in 245/30R22 but they come in 295/25R22.

Any Suggestions ? & Is there any brand better than Michelin.

go to a 255/30-22 for the front...

28.1"

seems like a pretty simple solution...

so close it isn't going to matter unless the car is AWD...

-handling
-durability
-perfermonce
- etc...

in a word, yes...

the only other high end alternative to the PS2 I would consider, giving your wants, would be the RE050... I think it's a great tire too, some will argue the PS2 is the best though...
