Die besten Reifen für den Jaguar XFR

Ich habe einen Jaguar XFR mit 874 PS und 923 Nm. Ich hatte das Glück, vier davon zu ergattern! 2x 265/35/20 vorn und 295/30/20 hinten.
Es ist eindeutig der BESTE UUHP-Reifen, den ich je gefahren bin. Absolut empfehlenswert! DANKE, MICHELIN!!!!!!

Ich habe diese seit einigen Monaten am Heck meines XFR, er hat die optionale "RS"-Größe von 295/30/20. Sie haben ein hartes Leben auf einem schweren > 500 PS starken RWD-Auto mit recht entspannter Elektronik, und dies sind bei weitem die besten Reifen, die ich auf dem Heck eines XFR verwendet habe - von denen verschiedene Modelle seit 6,5 Jahren mein täglicher Fahrer sind (ca 90.000 Meilen, die in dieser Zeit zurückgelegt wurden). Die Traktion ist bei nassen und trockenen Bedingungen hervorragend und auch die Aquaplaning-Beständigkeit ist gut. Es ist ein bisschen besorgniserregend, dass sie mitkommen

Because of the issues I had with my previous winter. tyres I did some research on wet weather running as that is the condition that is most prevalent in winter, and settled on these tyres, and they do not disappoint.

This is the first winter where I have had to battle heavy rain and heavy snow with these tyres, last year was a mild winter. This year there has been a lot of snow and I just completed a trip where I was able to safely travel at 50 - 60 MPH on 4" of snow up the motorway, for over 100 miles in snow and a further 100 in slush which is significantly better than the tyres they replaced.

We also just had torrential rain with plenty of standing water on the road and again the tyres coped without any hint of loosing traction.

I was advised to get these tyres by my local tyre dealer as a cheaper alternative, and by and large they are good tyres in the snow, BUT, they are very poor in the wet.

The original car that they were fitted to was the Jaguar 5.0 v8 with 385 BHP and they were ok, but when I put them on my Jaguar XFR with 510 BHP the wet grip went from OK to dangerous. Losing traction at 70 MPH on a motorway in the rain whilst going uphill and round a slight bend was not fun.

I suspect that they are OK on lower powered cars, but can't recommend them on higher powered cars.

UPDATE:- I have now spent a winter on some new tyres which are an order of magnitude better than these tyres in the wet and slightly better in the snow.

I have The Jaguar XFR 5 Litre supercharged 508BHP. When I bought the car it had TOYO PROXES T1 SPORT tyres on the rear. I replaced these about six weeks ago with these Vrendestein Ultra Vorti tyres. I very much wish I had NOT.
I felt I did spend a lot of time reading various reviews before buying, But possibly have either failed to find the adverse comments on wet surface performance in some reviews or failed to take appropriate heed of them.
In the six months of running the TOYO'S they seldom lost adhesion and then only once when they were coming to the end of their lives and 3mm tread left.
I have now for the fourth time under some but far from maximum acceleration lost adhesion at the back. All these occasions having been on variously wet or drying road surfaces. I have lost all confidence in the tyres, but cannot afford not to run them out to full wear.
I am getting 2 miles per gallon less miles and the ride on poor to average road surfaces that prevail where I live has now become less absorbent and comfortable. Most surface imperfections are transferred to the cabin.
In writing in the way I have, I have taken full account of the now British seasonal weather November/December. My driving style remains the same 64 old male who drove with much better tyre performance from The TOYO'S and consequential confidence
Very Disapointed.

I fitted these tyres, initially to my V8 XF Jaguar and then onto my V8 XFR Jaguar.

The grip in the snow is excellent, which is what you need with a powerful rear wheel drive car, but the wet weather handling was always suspect. But when I put these tyres onto the XFR the wet weather handling issues became dangerous. even using winter mode on the car and barely touching the accelerator I would get wheel spin on all uphill starts, and I live in the hills in the North of England so that is inevitable. But the breaking point for me was when the rear wheels broke traction, in the rain, going uphill on the M1 at 70 MPH when I crossed the white line changing lanes. That got my attention and so I have removed these tyres even though they have over 4mm of tread left.

Having said that the wear rate if phenononal, I said 4mm of tread left and they have done 40,685 miles. They may simply be too hard to grip in the wet.

I cannot believe how much they charge for this OE tire. With so many better and less expensive tires available, why would anyone buy these. Replaced with Vredenstein Ultrac Sessantas (see review).

A distint improvement over the OE Dunlop Sport Maxx. Smooth, quiet and delivering outstanding performance, I highly recommend these tires.
