The Moving Comfort Fiona bra is the best I have found.  Supportive for a larger chest and quick-drying for wearing under tri-wear during the swim portion.

I love the Champion C9 sports bras (the ones with the thin straps). Provide lots of support (I'm a good full B and they don't bounce at all), wick the moisture, comfortable, cheap ($17, I think as opposed to upwards of $30 for other brands) and seemingly indestructible.

Another vote for the Champion C9 bra, although I usually buy the ones with the thicker straps.  They are very comfortable (I believe seamless) and keep everything in place.   I usually buy a few when they are on sale ($14.99).

I have both the Champion C9 bra and the seamless one.  I like the C9 better- I prefer the smaller straps.  The seamless one works good too.

Try $60 for an Enell. But it's well worth it to me.

For running, seamless Champion=awesome comfort and support. For any other workout - Champion Shape bras rock. I'm relatively flat (OH, I never thought I'd actually write this on the internet but I have no shame) anyhow, I"m an A but still like good support and the Shape adds a bit of 'oomph' to what I do have thus not completely flattening me like a board.

 Another vote for the Moving Comfort Fiona.  I go into a panic if I can't find it and have to do a long run.  Great bra for the well-endowed and it's quick drying enough to wear in races.

I am the same size as your wife (it's tough size to fit!) and these are some good ones - the first two I found at Title Nine http://www.titlenine.com and the third at Sport Authority. 

1.  3-Reasons Support Bra by Moving Comfort.  No underwire but surprisingly supportive!  It doesn't look like it is going to be as great as it is, but this is actually my favorite for running.

2.  Triple Threat Underwire by Champion.  Underwire and pretty industrial.  As my friend said when she saw it, "That's a lot of garment."   Is definitely gets the job done and is pretty comfortable considering how structured it is.

3.  Shape Cami Sports Bra by Champion.  NOT for running (although I have in a pinch) but comfy with thin straps and plenty of support for biking, yoga, etc.

Good luck!

I'm a huge fan of my CW-X bra, but love my Frog bras too (Title 9)... they just don't work real well when wet.

Thanks, do you use those under your swim top too or do you have a suit you can recommend.

I wear the sports bra as my swim top during the race - under wetsuit or jersey of some kind.  Otherwise I just wear a standard, one-piece swim suit to train in the pool.
