They are all XL, but the Load Index numbers are smaller for the Hankooks than your Pirellis. It appears that you can make up the load capacity that the smaller Hankooks give away by inflating them to higher than OE inflation recommendations. How much higher kind of depends on how heavily loaded you're running.

I posted the load vs inflation tables in another thread here earlier today.
