Default Would like to purchase 20" chrome wheels

I would like to purchase 4, 20 inch chrome rims for my XK8. I need 20x8.5, 5x120 wheels with an offset of 15-30mm.

Does anyone have some they would like to part with?
Is there a reputable dealer or website I should seek further info from?

Thanks!

Tirerack is always a good one to buy wheels from. How well are 20s and Detroit roads going to be together?

Obviously you know what you're doing but FWIW the roads where I live are smooth as silk yet I'd trade my 19" Atlases in for 18" if I could. Just not enough rubber imho!

I own a 2009 Jaguar XKR Portfolio Edition convertible with the Alcon braking calipers. This is a special edition Jaguar where Jaguar USA only imported 200 of these cars into the USA in the convertible model.

I am looking to buy an aftermarket wheel for this Jaguar. I ordered the Conventry Whitley wheels and the front 20 x 8.5....5 x 108mm....center bore 63.4mm and an offset of +42 had proper fitment. However the rear 20 x 10....5 x 108mm..center bore 63.4mm and an offset of +25 rubbed against the brake caliper slightly.

My question is.......in order for the rear wheel to have proper fitment, I understand that I would need to go to an ET+20 for the wheel NOT to rub against the Alcon brake caliper. Is this correct? Can anyone confirm this?

I have found, I can order a Lexani wheel where Lexani drills the bolt pattern 5 x 108mm and then machines the offset for proper fitment.

I just want to make sure that a ET+20 is what I need to clear the braker caliper since the ET+25 would not on the Coventry Whitley wheel. Do I also need to know the backspacing?

Can anybody help provide this info?

Thanks in advance for your response to my question.
