Mud terrain tires

Why is it so hard to find a tire with some width and is rated for over 2600# in a 33x12.5r17 (or equivalent).

so far the only thing I have found is the Maxxis BigHorn or Buckshot, but have no place around me that carries them.... Any other suggestions of tires out there. I have looked at the Toyo's, Hankooks, Firestone, Pro Comp, abd don't like the BFG's.... what else is there in a Mud terrain othere then Interco?

Online is probably my only route.....

My other question is that I am told 35's will not fit with aftermarket 17's, I believe my back space is something like 4-5/8" on a 17x8"... anyone have any rubbing issues with a leveling kit wheel like this and 35's?
