Looking at the timings of decisions and how production ramped-up markedly nearly 4 years ago JLR have perhaps been used as a handy scapegoat.
Nevertheless, that's not the discussion here.
I've heard people moan about quality "not being as it was" for a few seasons now. The number of heat cycles you can get out of them seems to be fewer and they don't seem to work in the same way - but I hasten to add that is just anecdotal and pit lane chatter.
I recognise that CR65s are the period tyre and therefore suit older car's suspension, I'm all for that. However, when I used CR6ZZs for the first time this season I found them more progressive (and they made noise; very useful when you're an oaf like me and you've locked up, Dunlops don't make a murmer) in comparison with the Dunlops I've been using in the past 2 seasons.
Again, probably just me talking garbage, but I'm sure the CR65s I had from 2009-2011 were more fun and more linear in the wet.
