Default Wheel Dilemma

New member here but looking for suggestions. Recently bought a 2012 Jaguar XJL. Found out quickly that it had a cracked front wheel. Had the wheel repaired but same crack has opened up again. Looking to replace the wheel with a new or used OEM Kasuga (Hyper finish). I'm also entertaining the idea of aftermarket wheels. Any suggestion or pics of aftermarkets would be greatly appreciated.

I've moved your question from General Tech Help to X351 forum. Members here with the same model will be able to help.

I'd have all four wheels checked very carefully for any other cracks and to ensure they are straight and not bent. If it's just the one, then I'd probably replace just the wheel. If more than one (which is likely - they bend easily) then would consider a full replacement. There was someone selling a brand new Kasuga on the forum classifieds earlier in the summer - maybe not sold yet? There was also someone selling a set of four in a recent posting (when someone else was asking a similar question)

Are you in the snow zone? If so I'd get winter tires on the kasuga and a fun new set of wheels for the summer

20" Kasuga front is 494 on autorimshop.com. Rear one is 399. I think their service and products are good. I purchased my Toba from them this May when there was a crack causing a severe tire pressure leak.
