Have you tried TireRack.com? They may be able to help you out on the tire.

If you are looking for the KDWS BFGs I believe they are discontinued. I have the KDWS BFGs on mine.

Their production schedules are the reason I don't plan to ever run another BFG tire on anything again.

They produce a line for a set time then backorder it until they are low on a majority of sizes of the tire line. E.G. they produce all size BFG Radial T/A then don't make any size again until most sizes in that type are out of stock or low.

This means if you run a size that runs out quickly you are screwed for 11 months out of the year a lot of the time.

A few weeks ago I bought a set of BFG G-Force Sport 275/40-17's from (non-sponser link removed). They have terrible customer service. You can't get them to answer the phone to save your life. But they have great prices & they have a lot of tires in stock that a lot of other places have on backorder.

If you can't find them anywhere else, send onlinetires.com an email & ask if they have them in stock. Good luck.
