Default new member with questions on leasing an F-type

Hi everyone. I am new considering an F-type and had some questions.

If I wanted AWD on an F-type do I need to get the S or does it come on the base model?

I saw a post about someone getting rock chips all along the side of the car. Is this just a problem with the wider sticky tires (like the R)? I plan on leasing but don't want to get charged at the end. I was hoping not to have to add anything to the car like XPEL since it will be turned in

How does the AWD version handle in winter? I am trying to find the tire specs but can only seem to find 245/275... shouldn't AWD models have square setups? What are the specs and brand of the tire?

Welcome to the forum zk1,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

Not sure about the side of the F-Type being vulerable to rock chips but the fronts of all Jaguar two door models most certainly are.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/f-type-x152-72/ to the F-Type forum for help, advice and information


You can also visit the US Northeast forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-northeast-35/
