Can't find all-season RFTs, staggered setup

Are there any?

I can find fronts 225/40R19, but not the rear 255/35R19.

Tire Rack says the Pirelli Cinturato P7 run-flat all-seasons in this size are backordered until March.

Four of the 8 local shops tried to sell me summer performance tires, insisting they are not summer tires (Pirelli P Zero, Conti Sport Contact 5 SSR) - I'm looking for all-seasons.

Discount Tire advertises the Conti Sport Contact 5 as an all-season on their website, but Continental states it is a Summer Performance tire (on the Conti website, and I called their customer support number to confirm). Could there be different SKUs? All other retailers state it's a summer tire.

Some retailer websites list the Pirelli Cinturato as an option, but not available when inquire at the local shops.

Any other run-flat all-season 255/35R19 available, anywhere? Thanks!

Yeah I think you're stuck with Pirelli Cinturato RFTs in that size.

If you get non-RFT then you have plenty of options between the various brands.

Any reason you want to stick with runflats? I got rid of mine and put in a small pump+plug kit:

Those Cintauratos are not available, backordered.

I seem to get a lot of flat tires, around this part of the country, with 19” rims.

Any other options?

Think the Cintaurato all-seasons will arrive in March?

I think RFTs are being phased out because it causes manufacturers to sell fewer tires. Any thoughts on this, Alohasurftoad? If anyone, you’d know.
