Default wheel nomenclateur

I've got a recently acquired 05 XJR with 19" angular double 5 spoke wheels. They are OEM wheels, I'm sure, but I do not know the official name of them. Where do I go to id this wheel and get the official name?

The problem is I have a mismatched spare tire wheel that I would like to trade off but I need to be able to correctly describe both wheels to interested parties.

Any help out there?

Hey Tarheal, I hear you, been there when looking for a 5th wheel as a spare for my X type and then again for my A6.
Seriously consider checking Ebay / Craigslist or similar and you will probably find what you may need. You could also check salvage yards and see if you have any luck there and maybe do a refurb on them yourself if required?
I've posted a pic below....anything like these?
19" BSA OSIRIS ALLOYS




Anyways, post a pic and we'll see if we can help any for you.....

Offset is the distance from the wheel centerline to the mounting surface. Positive offset is when the mounting surface is outside the centerline, and negative offset is when the mounting surface is inside the centerline.Backspacing is the distance from the back edge of the rim to the wheel's mounting surface on the hub.To determine what you want,get out your tape measure and measure from the hub outward. Then decide how wide you want the wheel to be. Subtract that from your measurement from the hub and you'll know your backspacing.

As nearly as I can determine, the official name of these OEM wheels is "performance". They are 19" wheels standard on 04 and up XJRs.
