Default 20" alloys on an S-Type

Hey all.

I am about to fit replacement alloys to my 2005 S-Type 2.7D...

It looks as if the only lowering springs i can find for my car are 25mm

As i have just found out TSW are no longer making alloys, i cant get the 20" Holstens i originally wanted, so instead I want to fit a set of Jaguar Nevis alloys of a Supercharged XKR...

These wheels have 255/35/ZR20 at the fron, and 285/30/ZR20 on the rears.....

My question is, does anyone have any experiance or knowledge if these will fit under the arches of my car?

On the back of that, can anyone who has lowered their standard S-Type please share their story... what springs, what rim sizes and tyres... and buffing issues etc... or am i better off sticking with 19's???

Many thanks in advance, and there is a pint of Guinness for you next time you are over this way
