The XJ6 was introduced in the late 1960s and is/was in production for many years.

my rear tires have the same wear on each side, the middle to about 2" is worn (flat and smooth). the middle to outside edge has normal wear.
thank you,

i added the photo in "my garage"
If the centre of the tire is much more worn than the edges, that would be a sign of having ran them at a pressure that is too high.

"Either the shop knows nothing about Jaguars, or did not even look at the rear suspension."

Or both, in this case!

Well, you're still in the wrong forum, just for the opposite reason. You have an X350 (or 351), post-2002, while this is the X308 forum, 1997-2002.
