The sport package did originally come with the Pirelli P-Zero's. The one I test drove in November '01 had them. I'm not sure when Jaguar made the change or the reason for it.

First off, I really enjoy this board and appreciate all the posts. In February, I leased a silver 3.0 sport, 5spd, x1, x3, and truly love the car. The performance is great in th city and on the highway. Although the last autoweek road test report seems to verify the acceleration figures, there is another area where I'm very disappointed with Jag. As indicated in the original R&T test report, the brochure, and the website, the tires included with the sport package were 225 45 zr 17 Pirelli P-Zeros or Continental Conti-Sport. My car has 225 45 hr 17 Continental Conti-Touring--not a bad tire, but hardly a true sport tire. I called Jag and complained to them about the apparent deception and their official response was "specifications can change at any time" and that is the correct tire. This is a bush league response. Does anyone with a sport package actually have the perormance tires or was this a bait and switch? Please comment...
