A bit rare now I think, not sure they are stocked in shops and doubt that Pearl produce them anymore. I would save all your pennies and start collecting the Paiste 'Rude' instead. Try other budget line cymbals like Sabian: Pro sonix, B8's. Have a look at the STAGG series too - crap name, but dirt cheap, fantastic cymbals.

Thought the Wilds would last a long time mate.
Not so sure that the Rudes would stay the distance any better.Sabians and Staggs might be good for a dozen gigs and then cutting down till they disappear
.
Reckon the choice is either a world wide web search for replacement Wilds or a new sponsor with long arms and short pockets.

They are no longer produced, but I do like them and I have just cracked one and would like to replace it but they are old and rare not the best but not the worst.... paiste rudes very expensive and i would cry if I cracked one but hey who knows some one may have some rudes lying around in grannies shed for me ?

Nah...I doubt they would stand up to the pumelling that the Paiste RUDE can take.
It's in the 'make up' up of the cymbal. I used to own a Sabian AA 16" thin crash, It got wellied on some gigs, it never split. But - If you are playing hard enough to split cymbals ( Playing through them, mounting them to flat or too tight) Then eventually any metal will give up.
Good luck on your search though eh !!
