The 305/50-15 is long out of production.   Numerous manufacturers (including 
BFG) make a 295/50-15 though, which is certainly close enough.   Most don't 
have high speed ratings, although in Hawaii that's not an issue.   

www.tirerack.com will let you search by size, and compare many (not all) of 
the 295/50-15 tires out there.   Toyo also makes a terrific H-rated 295/50-15 
which is available from Les Schwab tire stores.   Cheap, too.

Aloha!
