Thrudd:
18 wheels you say? Geezers.
I regulary see tri axle trailers as often as the old standby dual axel types. So 22 wheelers.
But those are not the big guys that are nkt as common but I see at least 2 or more on my coommutes that have more.
Yesterday I encounteted a 7 axel monster of which only 1 was single wheeled and the tractor was tri axeled. So a total of 40 tires on the road but I bet someone can find something bigger.

Thrudd, I'm reminded of this madness, but that's not so much a crazy amount of tires so much as it is just generally crazy.
pwhodges:
That's pretty amazing, actually.

New South Wales now allows B-triples on our roads:
And of course Australia is the land of the road-train:
But mercifully, even our haulage-industry-friendly state government doesn't permit these on NSW roads except out in the boonies where the traffic-density is low.

My favorite part of those (awesome, by the way) pictures of the road trains is the signs on the front of both that say "Long Vehicle" because yes I have noticed.
