Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
What should Jaguar XK drivers know about UK potholes?
UK road conditions are tough on tyres. Check sidewall bulges, cuts and tread depth regularly — especially on the inside edge, which often wears unevenly. A 20p coin gives a quick legal-tread check.
What tyre size does the 2006-2014 Jaguar XK use?
Common UK factory fitments for the 2006-2014 Jaguar XK include 245/45 R18, 245/40 R19, 255/35 R20. The exact size depends on the wheel and trim ordered — always confirm on your tyre sidewall before fitting.
What do star/OEM markings mean on Jaguar XK tyres?
Jaguar approves specific tyres for many of its models, marked with a star (BMW), MO (Mercedes), AO (Audi), J (Jaguar) or similar. OEM-marked tyres are tuned for that car's suspension and don't always come from the major brand-name fitter as a stock item — they may need to be ordered.
The XK uses 19" or larger wheels — what should I know?
Larger wheels mean lower-profile tyres with shorter sidewalls — that means firmer ride, more pothole sensitivity and shorter tyre life on UK roads. Premium tyres usually repay the extra cost on cars with 19"+ wheels.
What does the chassis code X150 mean for tyre choice?
The X150 chassis code identifies this specific generation of the Jaguar XK. Tyre fitment guides and parts catalogues use the chassis code to match correct sizes, load indices and speed ratings — useful when ordering online.
