My stupid question - Where have the old school wheel set/sizes gone?

Where have the sets of old school sized wheels gone?

I'm referring to all those popular 90's style 15/16/17 inch wheels that were on most/all JDM vehicles in the 80's/90'/00's?

I understand that time, accidents, etc have meant fewer and fewer 90's cars nowadays but wouldn't those old school sets of wheels survived or at least have a better survival rate compared to a car?

I occasionally see a set being sold here/online, etc but if I wanted to get a set of 17x9 +12 for my stock bodied S13 --- what would my options be? Order a custom set? Or is there a site where people are hoarding these sizes (along with 15's and 16's) and are hoping they go up in price?

TLDR Version - I'm old, drive my S13 once a month and want 17 inch wheels/tires to fit my stock fenders. Where have those wheels/sizes gone?
