xk8 rims on an xjr? - 3/10/2008 2:14:12 PM

Guest

I was thinking about buying a set of giovanni rims for my 2000 xjr because the black ones I have with the silver just aren't cutting it. The guy I'm buying them from had them on his 1998 xk8. Are the bolt patterns the same on the xk and xj models?

Found this, not sure if accurate or not.

1998 Jaguar
XK8

Bolt Pattern: 5x120.65
Center Bore: 73.9
Hardware:1/2 Lug
Offset: 15-25mm

2000 Jaguar
XJ

Bolt Pattern: 5x120.65
Center Bore: 73.9
Hardware:1/2 Lug
Offset: 15-25mm

So, in this case, yes. I have read other locations (roadfly) that the XK and XJ do have similar bolt patterns, but mostly the 2003 model years and under...older models.

$5k for the Sentas.
They will fit, but remember they are different sizes front to rear. If you were going to use them on yours, I would buy 4 fronts and install them all around.

Mine are currently staggered, 19x8 and 19x9. I was thinking of going with these knockoffs. 0.5" wider than my current Apollos.

correction, 19x8 and 19x9s, drop the 0.5

An extra 1/2 inch should be ok, right, pending I adjust the new tire size accordingly. What do you techs think?

I am trying to remember now.......I will see if we have a set laying around and put them on an 03/04 xk. That will tell you for sure. Only real way to tell is real world practice.

let me know what you find out. I'll do more research, and if any other techs have the opp to 'test' a Senta wheel/tire combo on an 03-04-05 yr model, please do.
