Default Anyone else experience Tire Rack search glitches?

I'm doing some homework for tire setup on my car and found that when I do a search for tires, I'm not truly getting all the results for my combo.

Anyone else run into this?

example: I have been looking at a 275/30/19 front and a 295 or 305/30/19 rear and I ran a search, no Pirelli tires showed up. looked at the P-zero tire and all 3 of those are listed.

I'm just trying to get an idea of what and how many options are offered in certain sizes, before I select my tires. I guess I'm going to need to do more than just rely on tire rack search engine.

I assume that Pirelli tires do not have the combo you are looking for. They might have the front but not rear tires or vice versa. I ran into the same issue when I was doing the search at tirerack

That's weird, I hadn't had that problem until now.

Look on the bright side, you don't want those tires anyways. Turrible tires.

In that same performance category are the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S or the Continental Extreme Contact Sport. Both available in your sizes, both brand new from each company, and both lightyears ahead of the Pirelli.

Yeah I have had that problem lately, as recent as this past Monday, and the first time was about 3 weeks ago.
Not sure what the deal is, nor have I talked to TR about it yet.
