R888 availability?
Discussion
I've been trying to get hold of a set of these, but most places I have tried are out of stock, won't tell me when they're getting any more in, and are generally acting weird about it! Have they stopped making these or something?
I'm after 185/60/13 if anyone has a set of four in the shed . . .
Edited to add, demon tweeks still list them as in stock, but they are £82 a tyre as opposed to the £60 a tyre I was hoping to pay from Rotation UK. Camskill are also coming up really expensive on them, even with their discount code thing.

I've just ordered 2 of these from Camskill at £81 each inc. delivery after trying several other suppliers who'd either sold out or were more expensive. Apparently Toyo want to prevent regular tyre places from selling their motorsport product line and have adjusted the price accordingly. I paid £290 for 4 fitted under a year ago 
Try http://www.redish-motorsport.com/ James runs that, and he is excellent (knows his stuff and just a nice guy), but note, the prices have gone up quite a bit recently. Tell him Joe pointed you in his direction.

These have gone up for some reason and are being restricted to a certain extent by Toyo UK as to who can sell them.... I'm after 185/60/13 if anyone has a set of four in the shed . . .

A good friend of mine is the sole (current) Toyo Motorsport dealer in Northern Ireland. If your still looking (In fact that goes for anyone looking for 888's or the R1R's) Try Neil @ Kirkpatrick Tyre Services on 07525141014 He's a top bloke and will go out of his way to help get what you need!
Many thanks to all those who replied, I eventually got a set through Camskill at an excellent price. It's worth checking them out, I got an email from them that allowed me to see tyre prices for the trackday stuff online, picked what I wanted and put my credit card details in etc. The tyres were delivered on time and it was only when I got the paper invoice through this morning that I found out that they had given me a significant discount on the website price which was a really nice surprise! They also give free shipping, which made them by far the cheapest option for my size.
