I can only recommend sticking it out with what you have right now,
There's always Tirerack.com for any question's when it comes to tires.
I hope this help's...
Happy Boxstering!

A few months back my wife managed to run over a rock tearing a hole in the sidewall of a Blizzak tire on her Benz SLK. Called all over the country and even called Bridgestone and there was no replacement to be found anywhere.
So I called the illustrious Tire Rack and asked them if they had a suitable/comparable tire I could use to match the one that was destroyed. I was told to get a pair of the latest Blizzaks and "it would be fine". I doubted them but went ahead and bought 2. Bad advice ( and I am being kind )
The two different models of Blizzaks were NOT at all compatible or safe to use with the existing ones. The car was undriveable under any circumstance.
I ended up buying all 4 matching tires and of course
then it was "fine"
I should have followed my gut: Don't mix tire brands, make sure all 4 are the identical make and model. Lest you end up like I did.
Good luck!
