Don't know the price and don't even know if it's available in the US since this is a UK website, but it's a start! It's their new T1-R, as opposed to the old T1-S. April talks about the tire in the C5-A6 forum.

Now, to find a US dealer for it since they refuse to distribute through Tire Rack.<ul><li><a href="http://www.toyo.co.uk/index.php?fuseaction=car.t1-s">http://www.toyo.co.uk/index.php?fuseaction=car.t1-s</a</li></ul>

My link is to the T1-R. And I did acknowledge April in my post. What were you reading?

Default Hmmm. Looks alot like the Dunlop SP9000 which is a crappy tire. Hope that one is better!
Notice no info listed under that tire size..

Considering the somewhat unique tire size for the RS6, is it really necessary to check the load
