Tires for XF-R?

Does anyone know yet which brands of tire will be available on the XF-R and if there is a "preferred" tire?

It comes with Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tires. Excellent tires and the same ones they used to hit 225mph at Bonneville. So as long as you keep it under 200, I think you'll be fine with the stock ones.

If it's 200 klicks that's tough

, but 200 mph I think I can forget about...

PS2's are great tires but they wear quickly and are not cheap!
