I called a bunch of shops and they don't have em. WTF? I needed to replace a flat tire and ended up having to get 195/50....BS.

DON'T use one tire that's a different size from the other three. I'm surprised a tire shop would sell you one and mount it. It's a real no-no.

You can always order from Tire Rack or Discount Tire Direct, both of which carry plenty of choices in that size. Even if you don't pay extra for overnight service, you have a pretty good chance of receiving your tires the next day. Want to know how they do that? Instead of having UPS pick up a truckload of tires and sort through them figuring out what cities they go to and then sending them to their local distribution centers in those cities, the Tire Rack sends their trucks out to the local UPS distribution centers all over the country. So late in the evening the same day as you order them, they arrive where they can be delivered to you the next day.
