Yokohama YK580 available only at Discount Tire. They've been fantastic on my wife's daily-driver 2006 XK8, now on its second set of them since 2012. I've recommended them here many times....

thanks will check out..................... Tony

 

I've been running with Nexen N7000 for the past 6 months. Like them much better than the Michelin Pilot Sports I had on previously

 

Hi Tony,

Opinions regarding tires (batteries, oil, brands of petrol) are like a$$holes. Everybody's got one. So, all I will say is this. If you store your car for winter, then purchase "summer" tires. They will usually handle better than "all season" tires.


Cheers,

Stu

 

I bought some Michelin Pilot Super Sports.... worst tires I've ever owned. Not only was traction a problem, but they started throwing parts of the tread around, the frint right tire was down to the belts in parts after less than 3000 miles. Michelin paid me to throw them away, so I got some Hankook EVO2 tires for free. MUCH better.

Thanks I think LOL but makes sense too !!!!!!!!!!!

 

Bought the Hankooks Ventus V12 K110. Much better than the Goodyear Eagle F1 that I had before. Tracktion and overal roadholding is better and more precise.

 

Chalk up another one for Hankook Ventus V12 evo. I like having them, but I wanted a little better tread life, so I am trying some all season Michelin Pilot Sport A/S

 

I am running Nitto Motivo. They are quiet, and love the cornering.

 

I second this recommendation. I am using these on my X Type, and they hold like glue, and are nice and quiet.......Mike

 

I would recommend the Diamondback DB968 for good all-round performance combined with great value.
