This is very bad news as I've agreed to sell my defender with twisted wheels and 285/65/18 only 3000 miles
I will have to rethink
Can't help thinking bfg have made a bad call here, maybe a call to there uk office I think
But with your puncture issue its crazy

I heard they stopped making that size because they weren't selling enough of them

Well I spoke to twisted today and bfg have told them that the 285's are not allowed in Europe due to noise levels
Seems crazy but not surprised by Brussels based madness
Another good reason to leave the Eu

Don't know if it'll help, but these guys seem to have them - well, at least the website doesn't say out of stock!

https://www.protyre.co.uk/buy/285-65R18BFGAT

Good luck with the search

John. Currently....... all gone...... pending delivery of a mid life crisis.......
Previously..... Quite a few! I really am a sucker for them!

Jed, I know you say you have tried every known tyre company and ebay but have you given Paddocks a ring?

Their website is listing the size you want in old and new style AT so they might just be able to help you......
