Message	why do you want a higher profile tire? Want to fill in the wheel well? Lower the car. Back on topic, the RS2 Z212's by Hankook do come in 245/45/16 unlike the Nitto's. I'm on my second set of these tires and can't say enough about their grip. They may not last as long as say T1R's but do handle better IMHO. I believe edgeracing.com has these at $96 ea + shipping, great deal for an outstanding street/track tire.
