No where sells that locally unless you want to drive to Delaware to Tirerack's warehouse, just patch it!

+1 on plug it, then shop for a better priced tire if you want a new one.

Being impulsive kicks one in azz way too often

I just had to patch mine too. The first place I went to didnt want to patch the tires because it was Z rated so I had to find a local tire shop to do it.

I'm a bad impulsive buyer and Eric is making it worst.

Doh! Well, if you wanted to buy a set of used tires and use them temporarily until you get a good price for a set of new tires then let me know...I am local. I got a set of 245/45/18 x 2 laying around.

You should be able to get those tires from Mr.Tire and any of those types of shops. Just be careful with them mounting the tires on your rims since I've heard stories.

like everybody else said, have you consider getting a patch or plug? with 295 wide, that's plenty of real estate for the nail to punchure and still be plug able. No sense in getting new tire and waste all the tread.
