Ya, but its probably not what your looking for. BFG and Goodyear both make a 295 45 17. Thats what's on the Lightning. A little taller than I think your looking for.

I just did a search on the Tirerack site for 295-30-17s, 295-35-17s, 295-40-17s and 295-45-17s and came up with nothing. That doesn't mean those sizes don't exist mind you, but chances are good that there aren't many big name tire makers that have that size. There are tons of tires in 285-40-17 though.
