2004 XJR Rear Tires Rubbing

I just took delivery of my new (used) XJR. However, backing down my driveway I noticed the rear tires (19") rub the underside of the wheel well when going over the curb. Some online investigation suggest this may be a air suspension compressor problem. Any professional opinions would be great before it goes to the shop.

Just curious, what wheels do you have, and what size are the tires? The tires for the 19" wheels are 255/40/19.

Cool, those are the exact same size as the rear on my XK.

Air suspension may or may not be the issue, i'd also like to hear what size of rims/tires you got on the XJR right now. Curious to see if the rims aren't jag standard.

And please, don't drive over any curbs, backwards or forwards.
