I wish Mickey Thompson would get these tires in the new sizes to market. It's been forever and I know the demand is there.
Here is a link to the new catalog that will show you the sizes planed.

I spoke with MT a couple weeks ago because my BFGs were toast and needed something now. They said the 18" would be out around the end of May/June timeframe. I asked if they had any prototypes that I could test for them. They said none exist. 
My new BFGs are doing just fine.

That's ridiculous. It's gets old with them constantly moving the date back. That's why I was interested because my Nittos are toast. I don't see why they won't make them with so many people ready to buy.

someone was just telling me they called a rep at MT a few weeks back and the rep stated that they decided not to make the larger sizes
