Jaguar F type tyres

[snatchbox]

Just about to replace tyres on my F type 5ltr. What tyres are you using

Sorry, had to be done. You'd be better posting in the Jag section if you want to know about F Type tyres specifically, else you'll end up with a load of nonsensical replies (or none at all).

Thanks

I've just put on a set of Conti ForceContacts

These are the P7 tyres

So far, awesome !

My car came with Contis, but a wheel change shortly after purchase means it's currently on Pirellis. I was thinking of getting Michelin PSS next - as they were the tyre upgrade when I ordered - but it seems they've been superseded.

The Pirellis don't appear to like cold wet roads.

I have Pirellis but have the same problem when its wet/cold

Have you thought of running winter tyres in winter?
Make a huge difference on cold wet roads, they aren't just for snow.

I have Pirelli Winter tyres on my spare wheels for my XKR. They're worse in winter/cold/wet roads than my Vredestein Summer tyres. I've drawn the conclusion based on this and a couple of other experiences with Pirelli tyres that they're just not worth the money.
