I have a 2004 XJR with 19" wheels. Any experience as to what brand of tires recommended. Also brake pads. Looks like brakes on this model wear quicker than most. Just got the bill for replacing the rear pads and rotors along with the emergency brakes. Has anyone had experience with Akebono pads?
Thanks

I use the Michelin 19ZRPS2. Whether with the family or alone;-), the tire provides comfort and full control. I did summer season with the All-Season's (19ZRPS2AS)... Never again!
As for the Brembo's, you're right about the pads... and the dust drove me crazy!
I'm trying the Akebono... but I think they don't bite enough... Has anyone tried the EBC pads?
Here in Canada, I can't find any alternative to the Jaguar supplied Brembo disks.
And I am very interested in trying the slotted or drilled variants. Where do I source these?
Keep Well!
