A050 is new and REPLACES A048. So eventually you can't buy the A048 and have to go for the A050.

Translation from Yoko's press release:

At the time of development, in combination with the efficiency “of A048” to the working condition of each race/lace category, it takes a second look, such as uniform bearing pressure distribution and guaranty of tire rigidity and block rigidity adopting pattern and the profile which are optimum to gymkhana circuit travelling. Furthermore cornering efficiency, damping force, improvement and satisfactory operation stability of traction efficiency were actualized by tuning in every size according to use. Also the compound adjusting to working condition, it takes a second look extensively, furthermore raises dry grip. The schedule which this time the SS compound (for dry travelling and wet travelling the super in low temperature of gymkhana & low temperature limits) with the S compound (low for the middle hot limits of gymkhana and 1LAP attack and wet travelling with the circuit) it sells, M compound (all circuit travelling the cover) consecutively it keeps lining up.

I don't think Yokohama Australia sells the Advan rims here. You'll have to go through the usual trader or import shop. Any shop with contacts to Advan distributors in Japan can get it for you.
