I did not like the noisy Pirelli Zero Nero tires and put Hankook Ventus Evo V12s on my XJL. They are definitely quieter but, they are summer-only compounds that come with a ZR speed rating that is much higher than the stock sidewall rating. The result is that the Ventus does have stiffer sidewalls, thus a bit sharper handling.

I do have some ride issues with my particular XJL but, I can recommend the Ventus tires as I had used them before on my '08XK and they were great for ride and lasted for a long time.
