need new(R) tires/88 roc

I JUST bought an 88 stock IROC in Santa Rosa for $3500 and the tires are completely shot. Any chance anyone semi-local has a replacement set of the P245/50/16's? From this board, it seems that a great basic tire is the Falken ziex 512 and the Kumho exsta supra 712. Sound about right?
Thanks; Nitro

Also, almost forgot: Anyone have an extra WATER-PROOF car cover thay wanna part with???? (Local Kragen's now have only generic 'One Size Fitz All' {did dey steel dat frum Trojan???} type covers. Barf...
