tire needed 195/45r13

I am in need of a tire for my 95 cooper. I need one 195/45r13 with good tread. I can only find this in a set of 4 and don't need a complete set.

Wow, you're not kidding.

OP: did you try eBay? I did see a continental sold individually ... although it's a $200 tire. Better that $850 for 4 though ...

And I thought I had trouble finding a 165 60 R12s.

Might have better luck with 175/50/13

Almost the same dimensions. Know you just need one but the 175/50/13 seems to be pretty common.... Something for future thought if you ever replace all 4.

Thanks to everyone for your replies. I found a set with Dave at GB car parts.
Price was good for this tire. I will have 3 good tires for sale if you know of anyone looking for some spares this size.
