I was hoping to get the BFG's rivals, but they are back ordered every where I look..

Should I go with the 19" wheel for better tire selection? 335-25-19?

sorry to hi jack 69 hugger
Why do you want the 335? Performance? Looks? Because it's the cool thing to do? ;-)

Seriously... Our cars are generally front-end limited in terms of handling capability. If you are targeting handling, getting a bigger front tire is probably the better option. I run 315's in the rear, and I'm trying to squeeze a 315 up front to match it.

The "high performance" tires are hard to find the in 19" sizes as well, so that's not a magic bullet either...

Good luck, it's hard to find the right balance...
