Hi Everyone.
New member from South Essex hoping to glean some useful information about these wonderful cars.
I need to replace my rear tyres which are Pirelli P zeros but after some reading have heard they are quite noisy.
Cant say I’ve noticed it myself but perhaps new ones will be different and anything that makes it sound smoother would be welcomed.
Also recommendations where to get them.
Any experience or help much appreciated.

Steve

That's better.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xk8-xkr-x100-17/ to the XK8/XKR forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues. You can also use the UK & Eire Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/uk-eire-68/ to find other members in your region.

Welcome to the Forums.

One persons noise is not noticed by others. I found Toyo noisy on the X300, the daughter could not hear anything odd.

Good luck.

Hello, Steve,
No need for nerves here, we're all here to help.
Besides. Everyone here has been in your shoes once, some of us even remember what a scary feeling that was.
