I budgeted on £250 a corner, so I am happy with that but I thought Pirelli were OEM.

Only tyre I can get that's Jaguar rated here is DUNLOP ,  Good tyres on the car though , I do like them

Michelin Pilot Sport 4s. I don't have any spinning up problems with these away from a standing start etc. Great tyres for the car - imagine they will transform your cars characteristics in the wet .

Been there done Pilots on my previous XFR  ,shredding the Pilots was my problem  Good tyre but longevity wasn't their strong point  Think its the dry grip or lack of ,that was my problem , seeing as I only drive 99% of the time in dry weather I went back to Dunlops . 

Cant see the point of driving it in the rain with the extra power it carries ,touching base at close to 700 bhp at remap  , Church ladies in Punto's leave me at the lights in the rain   plus it gets dirty

Might as well fit some Continentals because every time I leave a roundabout at anything above tick over in this weather, I end up driving on the Continental side of the road 

I got left by a Fiat 500 on a roundabout today.

I know the feeling  Its always an old lady on Sunday when it happens to me , Dry this morning though .

Young guy in his BMW 420 i convertible edging ahead   thought i was in a diesel XF i think , Made his eyes water when i left the lights  bet his girlfriend still laughing at him

Just swapped the X5 at £800 for a set of tyres every two years for a 335i. Upside is cheaper tyres, downside is I daren’t floor yet on these damp roads.
