Bob,

	I don't see that any of these tires would be really terrible.  
But really, I don't think you _need_ to have 45 series tires.  YOu can use 
40 series or 50 series without screwing your speedo significantly.  That 
would open up your options alot.  I think that the BFG Comp TA3 is the 
best deal for a Z rated tire - very cheap, and reasonable wear and 
performance.
