I guess my caveman english dialect is lacking. I thought he was saying that he did NOT want 265/40/17.

Nice! Maybe my RS3s will be worn out just in time 
To be honest though I wouldn't be surprised if it's either a long time until we see this or we never see it. In the past Dunlop/Bridgestone/Advan have made lots of good tires that we never see in the states.

That's why I'd think they'd want to move as many units, as quickly as possible, so why not the US market from the start?

Profit Margins an simply not enough demand vs a broad market tire.
Why is it that of the four top tier tire manufacturers in the US, only one (Bridgestone) markets an extreme performance summer tire under their headlining brand?

Our information comes direct from the tire manufacture on tires and we actually weigh each wheel. At this time I don't have any information on the tire. Dunlop is here today and I will have purchasing check on it.
