"As for Goodyear, it seems they'll soon introduce a 39-inch version of the competition MTR. Don't look for it to go any fatter than it already is though. They aim to keep the 39-incher the same size as the 35- and 37-incher, at a narrow 12.50 inches wide.
Take a guees at why. The courses have become thin enough to squeeze the fat and happy TSLs and Mickey Thompsons out of competition, literally. And since Goodyear doesn't have a tire tall enough to compete with the big boys, they'll make one. Only, they'll keep it thin enough to compete."

What does this writer mean by "Courses have become thin enough"?
