Hi all
Just joined this forum and looking forward to getting some great info and chat.
Bought 1998 XJR in Feb 2010 (mid-life crisis, didn't tell the wife until afterwards, told her it was easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission!)
Had to get from Victoria BC to Vermont via Newark, New Jersey last month, a little time constrained but flying was not going to work. Left Victoria, BC Sunday August 29, and after 5,386 kms (3,346 miles) arrived Williamstown Vermont Wedneday Sept 1st.
Left Newark Wed 15th September, and decided on a more southerly route via Salt Lake City to avoid bad weather in Montana. Coming back I discovered a problem with my tires. Got some new tires, and found an EXCELLENT mechanic who knows Jags (Total Car Center, Merrillville, Illinois) to check my car and even with the lost day I managed to get back on Sat 18th (5,680 kms; 3529 miles).
The car performed wonderfully - a very comfortable and easy drive. The problem with the tires was considered to be with the rims on the car when I bought it - 20" boss "drug-dealer's" rims with low profile tires.
Therefore I am looking for some used Jag rims, preferably 18". Anyone got any leads for me?
Looking forward to being a part of this great forum.
Cheers to all - have a good, fulfilling (and filling) thanksgiving.
