Hi All,

I recently purchased a 2008 Jaguar XJR and unfortunately it doesn't come with a spare tire and RIM (missing) and the previous owner did not have any idea about it at all until I pointed it out. I need to know if there are other cheaper options to purchase the RIM? If so where can I get one?

Any advice is appreciated. (Attached is an image of the RIM from the Internet.)

Thanks,

If it is a Jaguar original wheel, try searching eBay with the wheel rim size and name of the wheel. It worked for me !

Other alternative is to buy the low-speed "spare wheel" that just lets you get to a tyre shop. Downside is the 50 mph max, although I suspect 60 mph won't harm unless you try to 'dump rubber' !!

 

I searched ebay and it's way too expensive and for a spare tire I was not ready to shelve out that much. I too was thinking of a low-speed spare wheel but I need to find a 19" spare wheel just so that I don't end up messing my wheel alignment in case I have a flat tire.
