Default WTB: Tire size 155-165/anything/17

Want to put DOT-approved skinnies on the front of the car. Looking for the odd size of 155-165/anything/17. Having trouble finding this width in a 17" tire.

Please respond only if you know of a shop that carries something in that SIZE that is not a rounded motorcycle tire. Please no "I bought my tires from this place..." responses. Yeah, I've bought tires before, too. Just need to find a place that has something in this specific size.

what he said, however, if you're interested, you can pick up a set of 15x4's pretty cheap to use at the track.

Need 17" to clear the brakes. Have found some 17" skinnies, but they cost about $160-180 each.
