The BT20 or BT021 were the old touring tyres, I had them on my 3TJ for ages, mainly because because they didn't wear out. The S20 is a different tyre.

I ended getting the Pirelli Diablo Rosso II's as they were on a sale. Got both front and rears fitted for £225 whereas the Bridgestones S20 came in at £312 (fitted). The BT-023 also came in at £283 fitted.
Haven't looked back since fitting the Pirelli's, such a good tyre. Just food for thought if anyone else in in the same boat.
