Not sure if perhaps the supercharged V8s got bigger brakes such that 16" wheels would not fit, but here is a 17" X308 Super V8 'Solar' happily fitted to my X305.

Well, they should fit fine. XJ12s are fitted with 16s from the factory.

on some wheels the 12 will need to have the dust cap flattened or removed.
