Trade my 18" tires/Rox rims for Jaguar stock
 
When I purchased my used Xtype, it came with 18'" tires. I am not interested in tweaking the shocks and springs, would like to go back to stock size. Anyone wanting to trade your 16 or 17 stock rims with tires that have life still in them for my Rox rims, almost new Nankang 245/40R18? I pay my shipping, you would need to pay yours. I am in St Louis Mo. Thanks for looking.

I'm not getting why you want to switch, do the 18s not fit in the wheel well or do they look stupid. I've got a sport model that comes with 18s and it works fine.

Sidewalk, he is running 245's. That is why he is getting rubbing issues. Not to mention that he is also running a 40 series tire. My 235/40R17's barely rub the back of the fender well. Now you start adding another inch to the tire height and another 5/16" of tire width and I can see where he would be having rubbing issues.

He should just go with 45 series and the 225s then, probably cheaper and better handling.

I have two sets of rims you can pick, send me an email to srybicki@comcast.net so I can send you pics.

Thanks.
