Default Need tire for winter wheels

Hello all! It is getting close to the time of the year where I need to swap my summer wheels/tires out and put on my winter wheels/tires. At the end of winter last year I came out to see that one of my tires was slashed! Now that this years winter season is setting in I am now on the hunt for a new tire. I have 3(now that the one is slashed) sumitomo htr+ tires. The only problem is that they no longer make those tires. I really dont want to buy a new set of tires because I only need one. Does anyone have a extra htr+ tire I can buy? Or do you know where I can get one? I believe I have about 60% tread left on the three that are still good, so it would be nice to find a tire with a similiar amount of tread left. If you have any ideas of what I can do/look please reply! Oh, I almost forgot, The tires are mounted on the stock 17" sport rims that came on my car in 2003. THANKS!!!

-Trevor

WOW! I can't believe my luck! I did a search on ebay as suggested, and it came up with 1 search result with a htr+ tire. It happened to be the size I need and it also has the same amount of tread left as my other three!!!! $57 shipped!

THANKS GUYS!
