I just called BFG and gave them the the MSPN# 97420 from their website, they said it was scheduled to be produced and released in December.....no particular date or week for scheduled. As of now there is no anticipated date.

I think you will be better off with the 295 35. 315 30 is too short IMO.

315/30/18 should be a 25.5" tire. The stock tire is a 25.7". Definitely not too short for my use.

I called Tire Rack today, all they had to say was that it showed to be a second quarter '07 release. No hard info, they didn't know anything either.

I'll be calling BFG tomorrow to see what kind of answer I get; if I get one.

You can get a 315/35/17 that will fit your 17x10.5's perfectly.


Ok, I called BFG. They HAD a production date of Dec. 20, 2006; which is what they originally told me. I had the associate check; in fact the production date has been delayed for an unknown period.

They have NOT set a production date. The tire has NOT been released at this time.

So the sidewall is 10 mm shorter? Won't that mess up your speedo?

NO, the 315 35 17 is basically the same height as stock. The 315 45 17 (if it is made) would be way too tall and mess up your speedo.
