i was in a similiar situation as you about 2 weeks ago and i tried to get that size and couldn't find it anywhere. i tried ebay with no luck and tirerack.com had it backordered, i had no other choice than to put on 15" rims and tires i had on my integra.

If i were in your situation right now and had no other rims/tires to put on, i would probably purchase 2 tires in a wider size like 205/50/16 and put those on the fronts. This wider width will improve your braking and reduce the swerving feeling at high speeds or due to crosswinds. I am running this setup on 15" rims and they are a big improvement over the stock tires.
