Default Update on 17" tires????

I just ran my BFG Supercar size rears half flat for 5 miles, ruined the sidewall, and they are no longer available. It was a 305/45/17 BF Goodrich. Does anyone have something hidden away or a secret source? I loved the way they fill the wells.

Otherwise, I was going to go with either the Sumitomo HTR Zs available at Tirerack, or the new Nitto NT05 from Discount tire direct.

The sumis seem like the best bang for the buck, although the Nittos look like super performers but at almost double the price.

Any feedback out there??

Thanks
