Winter tire sizing

Looking to get a set of Pilot Alpin PA4 since I just moved to the pacific north west from SoCal. I have the performance tires which I believe are the pilot sport however I'm not seeing sizing available for my staggered m340 setup. Maybe I'm not understanding the sizing options or I need to order new rims to go with these tires. Any feedback? I just had to drive they the mt at temps around 35 degrees and not looking forward to that with these summer tires.

If you really need snow tires, I suggest the Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3. Available in correct sizes for our staggered setup.

I was looking at those but it looks like the pilots out perform them and are quieter. The roads here are gritted on purpose to increase traction so quieter is def a plus
