the tallest tire they have that is on a rim 16" or bigger is the 305/45/18. i did ask about that one . a 30-32" tall drag radial on a 16" rim would kick ***.

I went by my local speed shop and got the new sizes directly from M/T's literature. EDIT: I added the diameters to the sizes that we truck guys would be interested in.

205/50-14
215/60-14

205/50-15
225/50-15

295/50-16 -- 27.61
315/45-16 -- 27.16

205/40-17
315/35-17 -- 25.68
295/45-17 -- 27.45

245/40-18 -- 25.72
265/40-18 -- 26.35
315/30-18 -- 25.44
305/35-18 -- 26.41
305/45-18 -- 28.81
345/35-18 -- 27.51

The heights that I listed are calculated, not actual heights provided by M/T. The flyer didn't have tread width or section width listed, just the sizes.

These sizes just are not tall enough yea we need em for 16''-18'' rims but we also need a taller tire how about a 285/55/18 That would be sweeet 30.34 in diameter.
