Bentley was a sister company of Rolls Royce it's a totally different story from the Brabus/MB relationship.
hope you'll get the idea.

I would also bet 95% of the people who buy high po tires couldnt truly evaluate and know the difference between a $200 S03 and $110 Falken Ziex. BTW, Falken also makes a great R compound tire, the Azenis.
