I saw a whole bunch of used and new 16.5 inch mud type tyres at Marathon Tyres Sandgate around 3 months ago. I'd say they had a contract to replace tyres for mining equipment. These things looked the equivalent to atleast a 39. A bit of R&D might yeild their source. Very expensive though i bet

The 37" Goodyear GSA's are apparently not being made anymore... but there are still some around (so my local dealer tells me).

They are about 37x12.5xR16.5... and something like $400 per tyre new!!

I was looking at them for street tyres, but bit too $$$.

I am still on the lookout for a set of 8 lug 8x16.5" wheels with some decent 35" (or larger) muddies on them for the street/transporting if anyone knows of some...
