Tire recommendation 2000 XKR
 
Hi - I'd like to hear about experiences and revelations regarding tires for my 2000 XKR. The Continentals have life, but they're noisy and I think they're getting hard.

I'd like a quiet ride with good wet traction, tho I rarely drive the Jag in the rain and never in the snow. I am running chrome wire wheels. I have a set of OEM 2000 XKR mags with Fulda tires, but back in the 70's I ran Fuldas on my 240Z and didn't like them.

Bridgestone S0* Pole Position's have the most amazing wet weather handling I have ever experienced in a road tire. Quiet when dry and don't break the bank.

Rick,

I've moved your question from XK/XKR 2006-Onwards to XK8/XKR 1996-2006 forum. This is the one for your model.
