Default Same Michelin tires, different SKU?

I need to purchase 2 new front tires and was wondering if there's a difference between these two Michelin tires? They are the same size but have a different SKU and price:

SKU 82315 - $255
SKU 91154 - $224

Appreciate the help!

Weird, I really don’t see a difference lol. Usually you don’t see two SKU’s like that for the same exact tire. I figured at first maybe it was a different load and speed rating but they are exactly the same. No idea what’s up with that.

I'm thinking it's the age of the tire? For example, made in 2019 vs 2020? Not sure if that even matters
