Quick question for the group here... Does anyone have any experience with the XJ8 Tucana Wheels?

I have been looking for something to showcase the dimpled slotted rotors a little better then the current XF Cygnus wheels I have on the car. There is not issues with the current setup, they are just a bit thicker on the face and tend to hide all that $$ and teh cool factor of the upgraded rotors...

Here is a shot of the wheels I have currenty and the ones I am in the proces of acquiring. I already have 2 of the new Tucana wheels and am looking for the other two now, but figured before I got to far down the road I would see if anyone else has had any experience with these and can say whether or not I may be in for issues with the Brembo rotors.

Thanks guys!

 

I like the look of the Tucanas. Are they staggered?

 

No bro Chris...IMO, Cygnus or stock is much better than the Tucana's.

 

Seth, you dont like the Tucanas huh? I was hoping they would showcase all that work I did on the brakes... I love my Cygnus wheels but the just dont let you see through and all that beautiful detail on the dimpled slotted rotors is lost...

Cat Man Do - They are not staggered 8" rims all around. I ditched my stock STR wheels to rid myself of the stagger so that I could rotate the tires - I drive alot of miles for work and definitely get more out of the tires rotating regularly...

Seth take another look the previous photo was the wrong model slightly different lip on the ones I have, see below:

 

Chris, I see what you mean about seeing through to see the work. Just thought they look (IMO) less aggressive than the large spoked wheels.

 

Thanks for the input as always Seth! I am really on the fence, but hey I can always go back if I dont like the look of the Tucana's right? I am going to give it a shot and see how it looks, you never can really tell until they are on the car and you can stand back and look them over.

I will take some pics once I actually get the other 2 wheels and have them mounted on the car...

Honestly I like the look of the larger spoke wheels too, but its such a waste with all the $$ I spent on the 4 way dimpled slotted rotors. I really want to show off all that raw braking power!
