Like I said a little earlier, those are the two that are on sale in Europe. I run my gz on 95 (& my car). Someone told me a long while back, what the equivalent U.S. ratings are, but I can't remember. I do remember that they equate to something that you buy.
EDIT:- I've just run a search. In "Proper octane for GZ". it was stated that U.S. 87 or 89 is equivalent to European 95, & 93 (supreme) is equal to our 98.
