15in rims are going extinct...

Its impossible to find 35x12.5x15 tires... all the 35s for sale here are for like 20s and 18s!!! I've literally been looking for months....

Right? Around here the chevy boys run the escalade 17s and 18s and the f series guys run that or bigger....even the jeeps around here are running big rims

these are the only 35s for a 15in rim I can find and the guy selling them is out of his mind...he wants 800 for used km2s http://daytona.craigslist.org/pts/2665789344.html

I want 17s
