Default 2008 Ninja 250 Tires

So I picked up a nail in my rear tire. Just bought the bike, slightly pissed, but I figure it gives me a good opportunity to upgrade.

For future reference... The rear is a Bridgestone BT45H 130/70-17 62H.

Does anyone know any good online motorcycle tire shops?
Any tire recommendations?
How much wider can I go in the rear (wouldn't mind losing the skinny bicycle tire look)?

Thanks in advance guys and gals, you're great.

I like these guys
Tires Unlimited - Discount motorcycle tires, ATV tires - tire dealers

I would stick with stock size tires or it may adversely affect handling.

I can't speak on the size, but pirelli sport demons come in your stock size. those are what I run. You'll want to get a front one as well though. I had my set last just as long as my stockers did.
