I notice that the GT3 RS tires are now in stock and available from Tire Rack Here

"OEM 2015 Porsche 911 GT3 RS"
As expected:
265/35 20 N1
325/30/ 21 N1

The 918 wears the same sizes but are OEM code N0. These are new, have OEM code N1, and have a ~12% higher load rating front and rear vs the 918. As mentioned earlier this seems to suggest the GT3 RS will make plenty of downforce.

Their availability now before the car gets here also again suggests the RS's introduction was pushed back...
