Confused dot com...

Anyone else come across this issue? I am looking to order AD08R's and Black Circles show two different listings for the front tyres. Different price and different noise spec 75db & 70db? Was there a spec change? I seem to remember something about tyre regulations changing

Unless anyone has a better idea where to buy them from? S1 sizes..
Well it moves... might as well make the most of it....

When I ordered AD08r's the other month from Demon Tweeks I was told they would send me the 'new' ones, he couldn't tell me the differences however.
