Maxxis has added the 225/45/15! We have been talking with them for a while and tested 245/40's last summer, but now the sizes are public. Right now I have no idea when or how much but will certainly share when I know more.
The 205/50/15 is the spec tire for SuperMiata. When the 225/45's drop, they'll be adopted in the series.

edit:
This is a hand grooved 245/40/15 RC1 proto from 2013 on a 15x10. We tested them (un-grooved) on 10's last summer and they were fast. That data doesn't mean anything now because the final production tire will be a bit different, possibly even wider. I have been working behind the scenes to get this tire made for about 6 years now. It's almost here. Wow.
