how is this, its proof but and will look better with the brushed chrome background. The printing method I use wont allow some of the detail that the original has so I used a substitute growler. I can keep trying but would probably need a sample here so you'd have to send one along. Let me know

Those Farallon XJR rims are 9" front wheel width and 10" wide at the back, I believe.

Well, here is the car! My XFR...

I like the way it turned out - I put some work into the car - fully serviced and a brand new leather Jaguar dash installed - THANK YOU Carlos Ponce at Galpin Jaguar for simply excellent service (as always).
I had all of the dark gray wood trim refinished - a big shout out and THANK YOU to Madera Concepts for their excellent work, as well as Chris at MINA GALLERY for the carbon fiber front splitter.

Last but not least, THANK YOU Jssaab for the amazing Jaguar center

caps that he designed for the TSW wheels - they look fantastic!

In addition to the upgrades (the car also has a MINA GALLERY axle back exhaust), I replaced all of the switchgear in the interior with new switchgear. Interior looks brand new!

Wheels look great. Why was the switchgear and inside trim in such bad shape - from the sun/heat or something else?

Yes it all had that sticky/peeling consistency to it and after trying a few methods to clean - I just ordered new switchgear.

What is the offset on the rear wheels? I am looking for a set of wheels for my XF 5.0 Supercharged. I am just so sick of bending my wheels all the time to the point where the car isnt driving smooth anymore and need something to replace them. Ideally I want to get a set of wheels that would fit this and the XJ Supercharged as I would intend to replace my XF with that once im done with it. Curious what the Farallon rear wheel offset is with him rubbing. I am at stock height so hopefully I wouldn't experience rubbing with that aggressive of an offset and 305s or 295s

The XF 5.0 SC and XFR have the same offset on the rear. So if they work on the XFR they will be good on the 5.0 SC too
The other XF models have quite a different rear offset

I know that, I need to know what the limit is for rear offset cause as seen in the original photos and described he seems to be rubbing but FastCat seems to have an aggressive offset as well. Want to get this sorted ASAP because I cannot drive my car as is...

XFR wheels were an option on my 3.0 AWD.

I bought a set from a member here with and XFR and am running them now, no issues. Love them, transformed the handling

Are you running spacers? The rear wheels are an inch wider than the stock ones (9.5 vs 8.5) but because of the different hubs on the 3.0 AWD by my calcs all of that inch will be on the inside of the car. the outer edge of the wheel will actually be recessed a little further into the car. So some spacers might be a good look

I have spacers and Yes they give it a nice look. I like may car as a sleeper, so sleepy people yawn,

THere is a great deal of space there to the outside fender but it doesn;t look too far different from my XFR

I will take a picture tomorrow

They fill the fender much better, and everything fit without any rubbing issues. The XJR wheels are wider and the rear tires went up to 295/30 so i was worried about that. On a side note the newer XJR tpms worked as well. All around I am happy with the upgrade.



Stock XFR left, new XJR right
This look nicer on the XFR than they do on the XJR.
I actually have a set for sell in the Marketplace

These are the GLOSS BLACK and they have the correct TPMS already mounted as they were on my old 2012 XJL Supercharged 5.0
I would prefer pickup
XJR Farallon Gloss Black set with Michelin PS4 50% life left
265/35ZR20
295/30ZR20

Don't know what the offset is on the Farallon Wheels - I know my news wheels are 45 mm offset at the rears, 21"x 10.5' size - fronts are 21" x 9", 40 mm offset.
