Jaguar XK Tires
XK120 Jaguar Tires
The factory-installed tire for the Jaguar XK120 was a 6.00-16 Dunlop Fort B5 bias-ply tire, which is no longer in production.
The ideal bias-ply tire for the XK120 is the 600-16 PIRELLI STELLA BIANCA™. This is the only high-performance genuine period bias-ply tire available and is ideally suited to the XK Jag.
The ideal radial Jaguar XK120 tire is the 185VR16 PIRELLI CINTURATO ™ CA67.
The earlier models of the Jaguar XK120 featured spats over the rear wheel arches. Due to these spats, some radial tires are incompatible with the XK120. However, since the PIRELLI CINTURATO™ is a tire from the same era, it accommodates well within the spats of an XK120.

Tires for an XK140
The original standard tires for the XK140 Jaguar were the 600H16 Dunlop RS5, which is no longer being produced. Again the 6.00-16 PIRELLI STELLA BIANCA is the best bias-ply tire for the Jaguar XK140. The ideal radial XK140 tire is the 185VR16 PIRELLI CINTURATO ™ CA67.
This 185VR16 PIRELLI CINTURATO ™ CA67 tire is a contemporary radial tire that enhances the adaptability of these cars to today's roads, preserving the accurate diameter without adding excess weight to the steering.
Jaguar XK150 Tires
The original standard tires for the Jaguar XK150 were the 600H16 Dunlop RS5, which is no longer made. As with the XK120 and XK140 Jaguars, the ideal XK150 bias-ply tire is the 6.00-16 PIRELLI STELLA BIANCA and the 185VR16 PIRELLI CINTURATO ™ CA67 is the ideal classic radial XK150 tire upgrade.
