I priced them out in 225/40/18 and 255/35/18 sizes for my LM's. Came out to well over $2000 imported from Japan.

Will stick with the RE-01R's for now

They don't show that tire coming into the US. We have not driven them so I could not tell you either way. The new XS has not been tested yet either. They are telling us they are better than the MX but we will find out leater in our test.
