2014MY GTC V8S in shop at moment. Fronts are a little low and dealer price not competitive with Black circles so will go there instead.
But there are 4 different Pirelli listings for the 275/35 R21 Y103 tyres, and all have Bentley approval.
What's the difference?
I'm looking at the more fuel efficient and better wet grip of the Bentley BL XL version at 291 GBP each but see there are 2 other more expensive versions (though not as good with fuel and wet grip) Bentley B1 XL at 304 GBP and Bentley B XL at 310 GBP.
Any advice welcomed as I cant see any more info on the tyres themselves to help me at all. Thanks

On the '07 with W12 engine I changed from the Pirelli to the much better Mich Pilot Super Sport. Just be sure to spec the ones that can handle higher load/weight. The car now has far higher grip potential both in the wet and dry, good petrol economy and these tyres are relatively quiet too. Check online surveys for comparison of the Pirelli to the Mich PSS to see or yourself. They really are a great improvement over the stock black round things.
