so, i have been shopping for some wide tires to go with the 8" x 16 and 9" x 16 rims i just bought (thanks d914 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) ) and it seems all but impossible to find anything decent and wide ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

anyone have any leads on where to buy a set of:

245/45 x 16 and 285/40 x 16

brand doesn't matter, as long as they are DOT legal and have any kind of decent thread pattern and a speed rating of above 80 mph ...

this is very frustrating!
