Default Need Tire Advice

It’s time to replace my Nitto NTO5 315/35/17 rear tires and I just found out they are discontinued. My dilemma is that these tires were a 200 treadwear and I never had a problem with them throwing debris or stones onto my fenders or fender wells. The replacement tires that are left are all 100 treadwear street/racing tires.
My question is this: are these 100 treadwear street/racing tires going to throw every grain of sand or pebble into or onto my fiberglass fenders? And if so, what other tires do you recommend in the 17 inch size that will give me great traction but do no damage to my body or paint?
