Default New tires for an XJR

I am new to this forum but cruising the threads tells me there is a wealth of knowledge and anecdotal experience on this site.

I have a 2001 XJR with 107K miles. It has the chrome 18 inch Astros (?) on it. I am due for a new set of rubber and looking for suggestions on what to buy. This is a daily driver California car and seldom sees snow; 2 inches on the ground at most. I put a set of Riken Raptors on the car 60K miles ago. They have been great tires but I'm told no longer available. I'm looking for suggestions on a set of replacement rubber for a guy who does not go gently when driving.

Thanks,

Welcome to the forum Auburncasey,

I've moved your question from Jaguar Forums Advice / Feedback & Suggestion Center to X308 forum. Advice / Feedback & Suggestion Center is for questions about the forum and not for tech questions.

Members here with the same model will be able to assist.

When you get a minute, please follow this link New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the New Member Area - Intro a MUST forum and post some info about yourself and your vehicle for all members to see. In return you'll get a proper welcome and some useful advice about posting to the forum.

Graham

Thanks for the accommodation and direction. I did read the intro material, but apparently not completely. I'll revisit ..............
