I went with BC Forged because they had a style I could live with, and the production time was surprisingly quick. I think they arrived sooner than promised too, even if only by a few days.

... go to 22:45 on this

Yeah I had heard that, but it is a good explanation. Having light wheels put on really transforms the car, best money I have spent on a car for sure.

Hey while I am posting, this is my current setupFront: 21x9 +32

Rear: 21x10.5 +25

(255/30R21 Michelin Pilot SuperSport)

(305/25R21 Michelin Pilot SuperSport)

What do you think the widest tyre size would be to go on the rears? I wouldnt mind a bit more chunk there, maybe 315 if I could get it.

Actually still on stock springs. I think it's a combination of flattering camera angles and the wider wheels filling out the wells a little better than stock. But I'll take the compliment!

nice! I want to go with 21s but really dont want to lower it due to the dynamic suspension and 4 wheel drive. I know it would look better, but worries me. However, I did lower my Genesis G70 which also had dynamic suspension. Worked fine.

I have 21's on stock suspension and it looks fantastic if you have the wheels plenty wide enough to fill out the wheel arches (tyres 265 front, 305 rear though I think the rears could go to 315). While the wheels are the same as FR500's (I copied his setup here https://wheelfront.com/cars/jaguar-f...iner-v-ff-103/ personally I am not a huge fan of them lowered, I think stock heights looks great and you dont have to worry about scraping the front.

Saw your car. Looks pretty good, but it's the gap between the tire and fender that bugs me on most cars with big wheels not lowered. Wider wouldn't fix that, but a taller tire might. That would change the overall diameter a lot though.

FR500's looks too low. The dark grey one a few posts up looks to be perfect. I think he is on KW springs.

Thanks guys, think im going to shop some springs.

Here's a few more pix of these gloss black 20" wheels up for a FREE SWAP - anywhere in Florida !

These were a $500.00 factory option

Otherwise I'll be scheduling a go for a diamond cut this week.

Here's some pix:

The last pic with the bright chrome is cool, but wheels should have the Jaguar center cap!🎯

Those are nice but chrome is just too gawdy. Gunmetal or just silver would be nice.

The discontinued Vorsteiner wheels were my favorite on the F Type, but I absolutely love these BC Forged RZ10s. IMO, they look made for this car. While searching for examples, the closest I could find to an F Type with these wheels were Porche 911s and Caymans. Lol I rolled the dice and am glad I did. Pics above.

So, if anyone is looking for a wheel that looks good on our cars, this is a good choice.

What did he do with his reverse lights? Was thinking of getting a diffuser like that but worried about installation concerning my reverse lights.

Looks like an alternative solution has been affixed to above the exhaust outlets. Not sure how effective those will be though.

My WAG is that those three small round things just above the tail pipes are LED lights that function as reversing lights. And maybe only the outer two are reversing lights and the middle one is a (red) fog light?
