Re: BFG 35/12.5/16.5 available again!

Yeah, the industry had to go get all stupid and shoot themselves (and us real truck guys) in the foot by catering to silly fad sized wheels and tires. This fad began with low-brow scum gang bangers and now the general populous follows suit. All that has resulted is much higher tire prices and huge difficulty stocking a zillion different sizes. Why would they do this, and all for a fad? Pure stupidity! What next, change tires to some other shape than round? I guess tires rot and fall off the rim before their time now because the tire companies have cheapened the material to help compensate for the added cost of tooling, line changes, and logistical nightmares created by so many sizes
