Jaguar XK8 Tyres
Offering both a coupé and convertible model, the Jaguar XK8 is a V8 grand tourer designed for leisurely drives with an emphasis on sure wet grip and controlled braking and steering. The right Jaguar XK8 tyres can help provide a comfortable ride with lower road noise and improved road performance. For those wanting a more engaging drive, a performance oriented tyre design will help with more responsive drivability.
The varying model years, trim levels, engine choices, and factory wheel options mean different sizes of tyres for each variant, so there’s no one tyre size that fits every Jaguar XK8. The correct Jaguar XK8 tyre size, along with its load and speed ratings, can typically be located on the sidewall of the current tyres, vehicle handbook, or with the registration information. Jaguar XK8 tyres that fit provide the optimal handling and safety of the vehicle and help maintain its comfort.
Tyres.co.uk allows Jaguar XK8 users to view the available tyres by brand, price, and performance. Once a tyre is selected, they can book a local garage for convenient tyre fitting.
Goodyear Eagle F1 (Asymmetric 5)
Tyre review for Goodyear Eagle F1 (Asymmetric 5) 225/50R17
I feel great. The wear seems to be even and they have plenty of tread remaining. I was a little worried about having a hybrid because the batteries make it a little heavier.

Tyre review for Goodyear Eagle F1 (Asymmetric 5) 235/40R19
I have not had any problems with them whatsoever. They are good in any type of weather.

Great, comfortable ride with the original tyres provided when I got the car.

Pirelli P Zero
Tyre review for Pirelli P Zero 235/45R18
Compared to Michelin, it is significantly quieter and very good.
Krystal Shanice
Tyre review for Pirelli P Zero 235/45R18
Still breaking them in but I'm already seeing less skidding on the damp roundabouts!
Esa K.
Tyre review for Pirelli P Zero 225/40R19
These are run flat tyres, and I chose to stay with the same brand as came with the car. They're not the quietest and could roll better, but your prices were competitive and the garage down the road did a good job fitting them.
Nazia Ainsworth
Tyre review for Pirelli P Zero 225/40R18
Observed a higher amount of noise from the road when driving.
Pixie Biddle
Tyre review for Pirelli P Zero 225/35R19
The Pirellis are doing really well. They are certainly much better than my last Continentals, especially at providing a more confident feeling at the front when it is raining.

Dunlop SP SportMaxx
Tyre review for Dunlop SP SportMaxx 255/45R19
I'm very happy and it's much more affordable than I expected!
Fatima Coburn
Tyre review for Dunlop SP SportMaxx 255/45R19
Durable with excellent traction.
Pamela Smart
Tyre review for Dunlop SP SportMaxx 295/30R22
Undoubtedly, these are better than the budget tyres fitted by the garage. They seem to perform at the level as my previously used Pzero Neros.
Olivia-Mai K.
Tyre review for Dunlop SP SportMaxx 295/30R22
Amazing control in every weather condition, will definitely buy again.
Muaaz Conneely
Tyre review for Dunlop SP SportMaxx 295/30R22
I switched from BMW's run-flat tyres to regular tyres because my car was all over the place on uneven roads. Ever since I changed to Dunlop tyres, my car handles bumps way better, and the noise from the tyres is substantially quieter. The grip, too, is vastly better than before when it comes to wet conditions. I really recommend these tyres to anyone who has a 330 or 325 with 17" wheels.

Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2
Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 255/40R20
The tyres are great in any weather. Heavy rain also does not impact cornering and braking. I haven't tested the tyres in deep snow and based on the tread I would expect only average performance.
Macey C.
Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 255/40R20
Because of their value, I have always chosen Dunlop sports. As a mechanic, I have worked with a lot of different tyres and these are by far the best.
Ian Issac
Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 255/40R20
Poor traction in all conditions, replace them after six months.
Liam C.
Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 255/40R20
Have done an excellent job, and would absolutely purchase from them again.
Muhammed Laycock
Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 275/30R20
The tyres are smooth, but I can't say how they perform differently since I always use this brand on my car.

Tyres.co.uk has options for Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S and Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6, 245/45 R18 front, 255/45 R18 rear on 18-inch staggered factory wheel fitment. Check that the load index and speed rating on your registration placard align with your order.
The tyre sizes and cold pressure for the Jaguar XK8 can be found on the placard located on the driver’s door pillar. Approved wheel and tyre combinations are shown on the same placard and are also moulded on the sidewalls of the tyres. Please refer to the placard for more details.
Since the Jaguar XK8 is rear wheel drive, there is no four-wheel drive system that requires a front to rear match. Jaguar recommends that when tyres are replaced as axle pairs, a like-for-like match of tyre type and tread is used. Staggered wheel sets must have the front size in its specified position relative to the rear size. When replacing two tyres, the new tyres must be fitted on the rear axle.
