Default Jaguar XJ8 Wheels?

Does anyone know where you can get the Jaguar XJ8 Wheels? I'm pretty sure that's what model those wheels go on.18 X 8.5 Fronts and 18 X 9 rears I believe were the specifications on them. I considered putting them on the S Type if I end up getting this scholarship money next month. 0=D

About how much will they cost? Also how much for the S Type R wheels? They're a little similar, but not quite the exact same.

I googled 'jaguar replica wheels' and found a few sites including this one just type in the year you are looking for. http://www.finishlinewheels.com/JAGUAR/XJ8/

Okay just to clarify for that site, are those Authentic OEM wheels or are they replicas. Because your post stated you were looking up replicas but this particular site says they're OEM. I found another site that has the Authentic wheels, but the price per wheel is just a little higher, which is why I asked.

Looks good, I guess I'll just have to make sure that they offer the rears too (the rears are 18 X 9 fronts are 18 X 8.5). And just to make sure again, those wheels DO fit the 03 S Type right? I remembered reading about them so I just wanted to make sure.

Just make sure the replica's are good quality. Ive seen some stuff saying replicas are not all equal quality. The price seems right though as 1 of the orignal BBS wheels would cost what a set of replicas cost or even more!

Okay that's good. By any chance has anyone picked up these particular wheels from a replica manufacturer?

Not to muddy the waters any further but you might consider these wheels from "coventrywheels.com" which are made specifically for the jags and fit most models. I just ordered a set for my XJ8 but they were also available for the S models.
