So far I've only seen Micheline and Pirelli make that size. If you do a "plus zero size" you can get your Kumho (Kumho Ecsta Supra 712 to be exact) for $104.00 each with shipping. I'm not a sales rep btw, I'm just looking for some tires as well lol . Kumho is a good brand then right? You mentioned them... Anyways the exact sizing for the tires is 245/45ZR-17 95W B, UTQG: 280AA. I was looking at Hankook Ventus Sport K104, the're 109.00 each -shipped-, and the specs = 245/45ZR-17 95Y DSB, UTQG: 280AA. Soooooo yea, thats about it, hope this helps .

I asked one of the service technicians at my local Nissan dealership that, they said no. Could they be wrong? Anyways, this whole situation is becoming pretty frustrating to me... Fyi I have decided to buy some Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires. Why? By buying the tires I mentioned to you there may be the possibility that you will have to sacrifice some ride quality ...wait... wth?? Where did you find 245/50/17? So far I have only been able to find 245/45/17....

I ran a 245/45/17 on the rears and they looked great-- they aren't too low profile and don't leave too much wheel gap (looked the same as stock). I'd recommend that size if you can't find any others 245/50/17. I ran nitto drag radials on the rears, but there should be plenty of tires in a 245/45
