Not available in the US, however, the Yoko Advan A032R is a close tire in the same family. Designed to be an all-purpose r compound tire that you can actually drive to the track on. Played with these on a Lotus 340R, and the tires seem slightly softer than the A032R and a bit quieter at highway speed.
