Have these fitted to my Jaguar XF 3.0D and so far they have proved more than adequate, and suprisingly fairly good traction in the bad snow and ice we have had recently.
I cannot comment on wear and whether i would buy again as i have only had the car 1 month so at the moment this information is too soon to comment on
Overall though the traction both wet and dry has been better than i was anticipating

OEM on Jag XF, these are quite good tyres. Steering feel is perfect, understeer almost nonexistent. Comfort and noise levels reasonable, but wear is poor and breaks traction quite easily in the wet (550 Nm doesn't help). Overall, would buy again (esp. if RFT is desired).

The tyres have been on the car since new; have now done 35000 miles. Wear is fantastic, I reckon I'll get another 20000 out of them, but the noise is unbearable! It turns a luxury car into a very noisy ordinary one!

THESE TYRES WERE ON THE CAR FROM NEW MORCH 2010, AT FIRST THEY SEEMED SUITABLE AND THE ROAD NOISE WAS MINIMUL.AFTER 3 MONTHS OF HEAVY DRIVING IN ALL WEATHER CONDITIONS THE ROAD NOISE INCREASED. THE WARE HAS BEEN FANTASTIC AT 19K EVEN WARE FRONTS AND BACKS. I WOULD CONSIDER THESE AGAIN IF THE COSTS WERE REDUCED TO A RESONABLE LEVEL AND IN LINE WITH GOODYEAR AND OTHER BRANDED MAKES.

These were factory-fitted to my Jaguar XF. From the outset, they suffered from tramlining, otherwise they were unexceptional in every respect. They lasted around 12000 miles, mainly motorway driving, at which point I was glad to replace them with Dunlop SP Sport 01s. A disappointing tyre.

In the dry, their grip is exeptional. I love rear wheel drive cars, have had 3 BMW's previously and enjoy getting their back ends out on corners when the mood takes me. This is very hard on the tyres and again these MAXXIS have impressed with wear rates. They are very progressive, no OMG! moments at all. In fact the grip is so good you have to push hard to get them to give up the grip!
In the wet, I would have to say, just as impressed. Of course you get less grip than dry but still loads there. I was surprised to read in another review here that they did not like these tyres for deep water. I totally disagree. I think they cut through puddled or surface water as well or probably better than any other tyre I have used.
In the snow, well this year has been super mild so only a few days in snowy conditions. But these tyres are all season and worked way better than a premium summer tyre. To the point I have decided to scrap my idea of getting a set of Winter rubber and instead purchest a set of snow chains for emergencys. A £40 option v's £1000!!!!
The rear tyres are now getting close to needing replaced and as expected, they are not performing as well as they did when new. I had no hesitation to look at putting these back on the car so was further delighted when I found a dealer locally selling these fitted, ballanced and with VAT for just over £90 a corner. Compared to premium tyres at around £200-£300 each!
If I had to make a negetive remark, it would be that they are a bit noisier than a Premium Summer tyre. But for all the positives, that is a very small price to pay.
In short, love these tyres, they preform well, look great, are afordable and the MAXXIS babes are gorgeous ;) Well done guys......
