I believe these are oem Sabres.

Looks great!

Yes those are Sabers. I have them on the 2006 XJR we just picked up this weekend. But mine have not been chromed. We just ordered the black and polished Coventry to go on the Black XJR. We thought about chrome but it did not work as well on the black as it does on other colors.

mine came with the same chrome wheels... I'm actually thinking of replacing them (along with removing a lot of other chrome "bits")...

I'm not a huge fan of chrome as you might guess from the above
