Please help picking out wheels- Bent my foregstar
As mentioned in the thread herehttps://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...t-rims-115432/, and it looks like I have three options (excluding lexanis) that I can get shipped to me by next week.
I'll post some more picks later, but really need help. My stock wheels are bent too..DC potholes ARE THE WORST. I know some hate aftermarkets and all, but Im in a bind and just want something quickly that looks halfway decent.
I have new tires 255 in the front, so the 20x9's would be the best option, but im not sure whats going in the Monaco. It could grow on me but im unsure.
XO Luxury | Wheel Selector
Tokyo - brushed silver
Miami – Full Matte black
Monaco – Matte black 20x9/20x10.5

The XO Monaco is a perfect fit, but the machine inside lip is weird.
I'm not sure the Miami would look good on the Jag. Here's a very similar wheel..

The Milan's are my favorite too, but the only ones I can get in a decent time (week) are these.. editing the above, those are Monaco, not Milan. Sorry.

That was my mistake and I edited it. I put Milan first, but its actually the Monaco.

I've been happy with my Tokyos. Bent a lip very slightly where you have to stare to see it, but I'm debating repairing or replacing. Dealer guy couldn't repair the type of wheel for some reason, maybe due to the location on the very outer lip.

Nice choice, I almost got those when I had my XF but decided on Vossen CV3's instead. Can't wait for the installed pics

What a pain! The shop didn't test fit before they mounted, and the wheel doesnt fully clear the caliper bracket (bracket ever so-slightly touches the inside hub of the wheel). This isn't something a spacer can fix...damn these huge brakes! The top and bottom of the white pain is to show where it touches.
Did not want to do this, but life is full of curve *****-now the customization begins.
