Default New Federal R-Compounds - Where to buy?

Does anyone know if the new Federal Tires R-Compounds are available for purchase and where? Are they in the US yet? I emailed Federal to see if I could get more info, but thought someone here might already know whats the deal....

I would ask Jim @ TireRack but they don't even carry Federal.





On a side note does anyone know of a online retailer for the Goodyear Eagle RS too? Can't seam to find those anywhere either....

I've emailed federal too about those tires and searched all over the internet for them....no response and nothing found on the internet. I even tried looking for the 595RS tires as well and I had a hard time finding anyone carrying those either.

Good to know.

I'm a fan of the cost vs. benefit of Federal Tires.
