XFR - New Wheels!
Finally found a set of 20 inch rims that I really liked. These are from the Niche 2018 catalog called the Vosso. Fronts are 20x9 ET 38 and Rears are 20x10.5 ET 40.
Next step is to black out all of the chrome pieces. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...ad3e5ea0a7.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...968d19caa6.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...db78dd0fe9.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...0ede940c8c.jpg A shot of the OEM Draco wheels. I liked the look and wheel design, but they were just too tucked in to the wheel well, especially the rear with the ET66 offset! https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...930bb0e785.jpg |
I have yet to see a set of wheels that I think look better on the XF than the Dracos, but these are super sharp. I agree with you too about what it does for the stance of the car. Did you ever consider getting spacers?
As far as blacking out chrome pieces, couldn't agree more. Gives the car a much more sinister look. Have you thought about having the roof panel and rails wrapped black also? I believe theres a guy with a white XFR-S that recently had it done, and I have mine done like that too and I love it. When I take the blue wrap off mine (back to white lol) I'll either leave the roof or have it re-wrapped black. It may not be for everyone, and maybe you should keep yours the way it is so we don't all end up with carbon copy XFs :icon_cool: As a side note, kudos on the photography skills. I've seen several of the pictures you post and they always look great! |

I have thought about wrapping the roof, but I think it's a trend that even Manufacturers have started employing, I see that style on the new Mercs, Kias, and even Camrys I believe. So, kinda on the fence about it. And thanks for the compliments! |
I've been looking at a set of Niche wheels as well, in exactly the sizes you have. I've been pulling my hair out trying to figure out what offsets I'd need for my 2013 XFR. Seriously, it's been killing me. Have you experienced any rubbing? What size tires did you get? Any info you can provide would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you.

Ours are 63.4 so you'll need hub-centric rings (or ride them on the lug bolts) |
Are you looking to sell your original wheels? PM me if so.

I love these wheels too (and the price!!) but it look as though they are only available in 72.6mm hub.
