Until now I religiously stuck to Pirellis on my X-type. Firstly the hideously expensive (certainly in S Africa) P-Zero Assymetrico's then, more recently. the P Zero Rosso. As they wore the car's already pronounced understeer got worse, road noise and comfort were diabolical and I experienced severe tramlining. I needed new tyres and the Conti's were on a special. Well, what an improvement. The car is amazingly quiet and far more comfortable. Understeer is still there but far more manageable and the tramlining is now a thing of the past. So far I have done only 2000km so cannot comment on the wear. Also I have not really pushed the car to the "limit" but I feel confident they would be up to scratch.

45000 miles mostly on motorway on a Jaguar X Type I cannot fault them.
I am told you can expect about 20000 on these cars with Pirelli.
There was no noticable difference from new to worn out.
Extremely high grip in all weathers, brilliant in rain and snow on the M6!!
I have just put some Uniroyal Rain Experts on, sort of by mistake but based on the Rainsport 2 I think I will be very happy with them.
