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
