    I stole an '02 XJR from ye this weekend, arrived in Ireland on Friday and I want to get to work bringing it up to scratch ASAP. Build date - is there a way of finding this out without being the official owner yet? Is it on any docs I might have in this history file? I thought I saw March...
  3. F-Pace (X761) 2015 - Present
    Hi, I recently bought a 2 year old F-Pace fitted with Cont sport contact5 255/50r20wxl tyres. I find the ride a bit harsh over the many pot holes we have around here. Now that the tyres (US tires) will need replacing soon I would like forum recommendations and advice on what I should change...
  4. XK / XKR (X150) 2006 - 2014
    Hi all, having just purchased a 2009 XKR I was wondering what tyres people prefer. Mine is currently on Dunlop SP Sport Maxx with 6mm tread so have a while (or not) to decide what to run on. As an aside, do ppl use premium unleaded or don't bother? Cheers
  5. XJ / XJR (X351) 2010 - 2019
    Anyone had alloy damage when tyre changed and how did the complaint go? Just had both recently refurbished fronts damaged by main dealer. Needed the change as they had worn out inner edges after only 5k, my first set did 20k. Second 9k when they also wore inner edges unevenly. In both cases MD...

  7. XE (X760) 2015 - Present
    It is time to replace my (2nd set of!!) tyres on my Jaguar XE 2015. Current Tyre is Dunlop SP Sport Maxx RT 225/45 R18 Y (95). My question is whether I need to replace the tyres "like for like", i.,e. with the same type exactly, or whether I can go for an alternative? I know Jaguar has tested...
  8. Alloy Wheels & Tyres
    My present tyres are ready to be replaced. I have Avon ZZ3's at present and they have done nearly 23K miles, (installed 4yrs. ago) I think this is not bad for a car like the S type. I don't drive like Miss Daisy nor like some er....Yobbo from Top gear. What do you...

    Hello all, Looking to replace the rears in the next few weeks. Currently using the standard fit Dunlop Sport Maxx GT's all round. No real issues with these but what other tyres have you used and what would you recommend and/or avoid. I have used various Michelin Pilot Sport tyres on previous...

  12. X-Type (X400) 2001 - 2009
    I tried to search in forum for past discussion on tyres for x-type. I could not find one. but what is the current favourite tyre for general use for the x-Type at the moment in UK? (225/40/18). I searched online and Found Michelin Pilot Sport 4 is good option considering its rating and price...
  13. XK / XKR (X150) 2006 - 2014
    I bought a used xkr 4.2. The previous owner had runflat tyres. Recently one front tyre destroyed. Since the other 3 tyres are not in a perfect condition I decided to change all of them. Should I buy again runflat tyres or not? I am thinking of Pirelli p zero.
  14. S-Type (X200, X202, X204, X206) 1999 - 2008
    I'm sure this has been brought up in the past, but what is the current favourite tyre for general use for the S-Type at the moment? (235/50/17) I could of course go for the OEM Pirelli, but wondered about trying the 'Michelin Primacy 3' ? Or does anyone else have good recommendations? Will be...
  15. X-Type (X400) 2001 - 2009
    I have been having a weird problem with the tyres on my 2008 2.2d SE Saloon. I check the pressures about every month. (yes....I know we're supposed to check them weekly!) The tyres are 225x45x17 on standard jaguar alloys. Three of the tyres are Phenoma Lassa ?? and one is a Pirelli. All treads...
  16. X-Type (X400) 2001 - 2009
    That dreaded time has come to buy some new tyres for my X type estate. I have been very happy with my Goodyear F1 Eagles - got nearly 30K out of them, and can get replacements for £78 each. BUT, I have been reading about the Michelin Crossclimate tyres. I can get some from Blackcirles for £94...
  17. X-Type (X400) 2001 - 2009
    Had a puncture today and when I removed the N/S/R wheel found a large screw through the sidewall, but even worse, what I thought was a good Pirelli with lots of life left in it, had cords showing through on the inner edge! I also have one tyre that is coming close to the limit on the N/S/F so...

  19. XF / XFR (X250) 2007 – 2015
    Hi, I have recently purchased a XF R-Sport (168bhp) It currently has 17" alloys on it and I know that from new jaguar do not sell the 168bhp with alloys bigger than 17", so my question is whether I am able to put anything bigger than 17 on this car or am I restricted to the manufacturer...
  20. S-Type (X200, X202, X204, X206) 1999 - 2008
    Hi gents Rear tyres are down to 2mm so will need to replaced soon. Currently have Pirelli P6000 on the rear and Falken Ze914 on front. Looking at putting some new Falkens on rear so all 4 are matching, looking at about £200 for the pair. What tyres do you guys recommend? I am aware of the tyre...
