Is toyota working with them to design one for 86?

Bridge Stone Potenza RE 86 was on Toyota MR2 '84 model. Size was a lot smaller. The ones on showroom seems like that label 86 was tacked on AFTER the tire was produced.

The car is so light, just about any tire will work on them. My old 240SX had the same weight with less balance, and still didi well on cheap AVON 500 tires.
