On my return trip to Atlanta this week I happened on some tires headed for Canada.
Titan Tire Corporation, a subsidiary of Titan International Inc., shipped its first giant 63-inch off-the-road (OTR) tire and wheel assemblies on July 29, 2008. These tires, each measuring nearly 14 feet tall and weighing approximately 12,500 pounds, are being shipped to Canada's oil sands for use in mining applications.

I've seen these monsters heading north ... the oil sands are about 2 hours north of here. The assembled vehicles are crazy-huge!
I've seen the finished trucks on the History Channel. They are huge!
