Default NEW Jaguar Owner

Hi, thought I would introduce my self. Originally from UK, I have always had a soft spot for Jaguar/Land Rovers. I Just purchased a Jaguar XJ6 VDP the other day locally in Calgary. Then sold it a few days later making some $$$$. The reason mainly for selling was the amount of issues. But now I am in the process of getting a jaguar from Edmonton AB. which is 2.5 hours from Calgary. Its a Low Mileage Dark Blue 1998 XJ8. its been all inspected and everything is working on it. One of the first things I want to do is put on a set of 1999 - 2003 style XJR rims. The asteroid ones. I want to get a cheap set with tires. If anyone knows where I could get a set of used ones for anywhere up to $650. Also I can ship to my address in the US. So I would then bring them through the border later myself. LMK....

PS. What would the affects be by putting Asteroids on the XJ8. Would they fit etc?
