[TowerTalk] Towers for large quads

Hi Everyone, 
I am planning on putting up a Cubex Mantis II 4 ele on 20 through 10 and 2 elements on 40m. This is a large antenna...23 sq foot. I am planning on putting it at about 100' on possibly Rohn 55G...My question is, does anyone know of a free-standing tower that would hold that much square footage at 80- 100' other than maybe a super commercial grade tower? I dont figure there is, and I figure rohn  55 Guyed should have no issues, but just asking if anyone has experience with this. Anyone have this particular antenna? How does it play?  Looks like it should be a real great antenna...PS I already know what a large under-taking this is, and all the potential pit-falls of quads. 


Thanks,
Dan N9WX
