I went to get a flat patched last week and asked the salesman about
a tire in the showroom while I waited.  It was for a 26" rim and
must have had all of 2 inches of sidewall.  It turns out it was
for a Cadillac Escalade.  He laughed and showed me the rims it
went on, then explained that for $5000 in rims and $700 a tire
you too could be shut down by the first pothole you find.
