Xjs tire recommendations
Hello,
I have reviewed many of the older posts for tire recommendations but thought I would check again since many of the tires are no longer available.
My XJS is a 1985 coupe with 20 year old Pirelli tires size 215/70vr15. I only drive the car sparingly in good weather. I am mostly concerned with ride quality and an appearance as close to OEM as possible without getting crazy price wise. Any advice or recommendations are appreciated.
Thank you

I put a set of SureDrive (FIrestone house brand) 215/65 R15 96H on my '89 last year. They look very good. Just slightly wider than OEM but hard to tell by sight.
About $80 per tire. Assuming you don't plan to drive 120 mph (and I don't) these tires were more than fine. For me they were a very economical and practical choice.
Good quality, quiet ride, good traction. Quality manufacture with warranty.
