275 35 19 tire cost is ridiculously high!

if you look for a 275 35 19 tire size (uncommon size according to most dealers), the price jumps noticably higher. it almost makes sense to go with a 275 30 19 in the rear just because its cheaper.

any recommendations?

don't be cheap and get the right size. I don't see how it makes any sense to go with a 275/30/19, no matter what the cost is
