Hello,

I am currently looking at buying a used set of 18" wheels and tyres whilst I take my time to refurb my 20" Sepangs on my Super V8.

I would love a set of the Presitge wheels as fitted as standard to my car originally but they seem very rare here in the UK.

Next choice for me are the Rapier Wheels. I can't seem to find the right brochure to confirm whether these would fit over my Brembo calipers or not. I can only find pictures of them fitted to later cars with the different brake set up.

Can anybody confirm either way if these would fit my car or not?

Thank you.

 

Can't help with the Rapier ones but can confirm that the Prestige do fit over the Brembo brakes as I use a set of Prestige for my winter tyres, I have Sepangs on for the summer on my Super V8 . I bought my set of Prestige on ebay ages ago as I used them on my last X350, a 3.5SE which also had a set of Prestige for the summer.

 

... and the standard 18" 'dynamic' rims fit over brembos, too.

Thanks-
Mag

 

Really? How do you know this?

The standard 18 wheels that come on your car will fit over Brembo brakes. I use one as a spare on my XJR
