I had a set of 5 Nokian Hakkapeliitta C2's on my Syncro for a couple years.
They inflate to 70 lbs and run quiet at around 50 and are tougher than
nails,
even off road in very rocky, ledgy conditions. They were studded/snow tires
without the studs.
If I were going to go back to Nokians I'd get their delivery van (Cargo I
think
is what it's called) tire. Similar robustness of the C2 and CS tires but
less
of a snow/rain type tire.
You will find that size you're looking for in their tire.
