Hi All,

Just switched from BMW to a new 2017 Jaguar F-Type R.

Looking forward to the new Jaguar forums community and seeing what everyone is doing to their rides.

Thanks,

Andy

 

I'm a new member too from San Antonio. I got my car last week from Barrett. I traded in an Audi R8. Very sad to see it go, but I wasn't driving it much at all. I plan on driving the F-type nearly every day! So far I'm happy with the car and the dealership was great as usual.

Congratulations on your car!

Paul

 

I picked up a V6S British Design Edition this morning from Barrett too.

 

Welcome from Austin!

 

Looks like Barrett is having a good week regarding F-Type sales !!!

 

Hola from Dallas- just about have enough for a Texas meet now

 

Welcome everyone, congratulations on your new rides. Post some photos and update your signature with car info if you haven't already. Vert or coupe is good to note, engine size, etc. It helps when responding to questions and comments. Saw DrPauls picture post in the photos thread. Nice red and wheels. What are the specs on the new wheels?

 

Congrats and welcome to the zoo!

 

The wheel specs are:

Ferrada FR-2

Front: 20x9 E.T. 35
Rear: 20x10.5 E.T. 38

I'm using the factory tires.

 

I'm in SA also. Welcome - we need more F-Types here!

 

Welcome, what BMW are you coming from?

 

now you'll need spacers ( 15 or 17mm) on the rears to push them out as far as the fronts were.

 

I was going to say the same thing. The rear 10.5 can take as low as a +18 offset with a 295.

 

Welcome to all the new drivers!

 

And that's exactly what I was wanting to do. But, I don't want to be grinding down the stud bolts. So,,,,


1) what width should I go with so that I don't have to grind the bolts?
2) can you offer your opinion on which brand to buy and from who??


Thanks!

 

Congratulations and Happy Motoring.

Best regards,

17mm wheel spacers from Lenny at Motorsport-Tech will get the job done

 

i already tried --- the spacers won't work on the ferrada wheels !! Already Had Lenny make them - they won't work !

 

so, has anyone had any luck finding spacers that fit for ferrada wheels?

 

+1., but don't ever consider switching the 305 rear tires. And, it's adaptors, not spacers, you are looking for.
