Best tyres for the Jaguar XE
For everyday driving the priorities are wet braking, comfort and value. A premium summer tyre is best if you switch for winter; a good all-season tyre suits one set all year.
The Jaguar XE is commonly fitted in 225/45 R18, 245/40 R19 on 18 to 19 inch wheels, though the exact size depends on the trim and wheel option. Any tyre in the correct size and rating will physically fit, so the real decision is which tyre suits how and where the XE is driven.

Jaguar XE tyre sizes
These are common fitments across recent Jaguar XE generations. Your exact size depends on the generation, trim and wheels, so confirm it from the tyre sidewall, the door placard or your V5C. New to it? See what a size like 225/45 R18 means.
Recommended pressures
Your Jaguar XE's recommended pressures are on the placard in the driver's door shut or fuel flap, and in the handbook. Set them cold, and raise them when fully loaded or towing. Our guide to correct tyre pressure and where to find your figures cover the detail.
What to watch on a XE
Wear is usually even. If one edge goes first, it is normally tracking or alignment rather than the tyre. See diagnosing uneven wear if you spot it.
