That is the normal one.
The other is the Bravuris (Directional) and now have the Bravuris 2 (Asymmetric)

the Bravuris is never quiet..
infact the first one directional is famous for noise smile_blackeye.gif

so just left brilliantis to compete with GR90 be it comfort or quiet smile_blush.gif

Correct me if I am wrong, I believe all GR-90s available through Bridgestone Malaysia are sourced from Thailand smile_sleepy.gif

Does it make a difference? Not really, the GR-90 is superbly smooth and silent. I can hear the sound of the engine but nothing from the tyres....

Japan's version of our GR-90 is branded GR-9000.
