Doug, Pirelli P-4000 has a tire near that size(I
think it's made especially for Bently), and
Firestone makes a z-rated police car tire that is
28" tall (235-60-15).  If you do make the trip on
Memorial day weekend, I have a set of the police
car tires (with only 3 miles on them)that you can
try.  I'm changing my rear end and will be
experimenting with a shorter tire that weekend.
