Are 17" wheels avaiable on the Limited

Getting closer to buying another Expy and leaning toward the '09 because of what some here have said about the updated transmission.

One thing I need to know about the '09 Limited is if 17" wheels are available instead of the standard 18" ones..

I'd like the 17" wheels because I already have a set of tires set back, the tires are more readily available according to a guy at Sams, and I go on rough mountain dirt roads and want capable and easily found tires.

From the mfg on Limited, only 18" are offered as the standard wheel and 20" are optional. Now the spare is a 17" when the 18" are installed on the ground.

My '07 had 18"s installed and I wanted 20"s. Word of caution: If you change wheel sizes from factory installed, you will also need to order the correct tire pressure monitors for each wheel. My local tire guy says the 18"s are very common anymore, he carries 20 different varieties of the 18" tire.
