Why no bikes made with tires larger then 27"

Someone asked me this today and I didn't have an answer. Probably a stupid question but oh well, let me ask it.

Why don't they make bikes with tires larger than 27"? I would think someone in great condition would go faster on a 31" tire with the same gear ratios and such. I'm just curious the reason why tires pretty much stopped at 27 inches.
