Default Wheels Fitment Question

I currently have some 20 Sentas on my car but due to cracked rim after cracked rim and constant flat tires i am downgrading. I"m hoping these rims provide a better ride with less wheel and tire damage.

18x8.0 offset 52.5
Will this wheel size work with a 2010 XF?

What width and offset are the Sentas? Is the wheel you mentioned an OEM or aftermarket? I am having a very tough time finding a 19" aftermarket wheel that will fit my 2013 3.0L AWD which has 20x8.5+49 at all four corners and there's no way an aftermarket 18 would fit but maybe an OEM one could be squeezed on. The thinner 8.0+52 wheel with a higher positive offset will move the wheel outer lip 10mm further inward which will probably look weird.

I'm in the same boat as you. I'm looking for 19s with a 245/45 tire so I can get as much sidewall as an 18" wheel.

It depends almost entirely on what front brakes you have on your car.
If you have the 380 mm brakes then no OEM JLR 18" wheel will fit over them and the only 19" JLR OEM wheels which will fit are F-Type wheels.
I know of no after-market 19" wheels which will fit although there may be some, and I doubt if there is a single after-market 18" wheel which will fit, although a custom made one (read very expensive) might just.
If you have the 355 mm front brakes then almost all OEM JLR 18" and 19" wheels (XF and otherwise) will be fine.

The wheels are OEM just not Jaguar OEM. You were right the wheels did look wierd so i decided not to buy them. Im currently searching for some 18's that will fit. With the 19'' rims setup you spoke about do you think its a vast enough improvement over 20'' rims?

How do i know which size brake caliper I have, is it on the caliper somewhere? I will admit the front calipers are huge and was told that it will be tough to get an aftermarket rim to fit.

My 2010 Premium 5.0 V8 had 19" Autura wheels factory. I was able to get a set of 18" wheels from Discount Tire Direct to fit for my snow tire setup.


But there were only a few of the many 18" wheels they offered that fit over the front caliber/rotors.


Discount Tire was successfully able to tell me what wheel would fit and what would not.

You can get them in silver also.

The size is imprinted into the caliper holder/bracket, on the bottom edge IIRC.
Just whip a front wheel off and have a look, you should see either 380 or 355 "written" on the bracket.
