I had the same problem two weeks ago,

It turns out Goodyear won't have any for at least another month, Dunlop, michelin and Vredestian all have no stock either of 215/35/18. The only stock appears to Toyo and having had them and not being impressed with them I decided to stick with F1's and used MyTyres.

My tyres have stock of goodyear F1's because they are a massive european supplier based in Germany.

I paid £96 a corner delivered, they only took 3 days to arrive, popped down to kwikfit and they fitted, balanced and disposed of the old tyre for £10 a corner. Worked out at £426 for all 4

Heard Michelin Pilot Sport 2's are very good although expensive.

I'm sure Toyo have another new high performance tyre on its way out to supercede the T1-R's
