Hi all, I'm considering an alloy wheel change to these aftermarket versions as below....
They're a straight swap in size, ET and 5 stud x 108 so just a bolt on job, I'm trying to convince myself, but the more I look at them, the more I like them, just wondered what your thoughts were?

I think they look similar (ish) to Beavis'


I know it'll be my choice at the end of the day, but would ask your opinions, give them as honest as you like guys, good or bad
Many thanks

 

Jim,

I like the Ardens in the above picture better. Probably also easier to clean.

 

8 spoke wheels have just enough "busy-ness" going on about them to make a great fit for an XJ. I like my 8 spokes...

 

Hmmm, me too, but my wallet says no....lol


I do quite like them, but the subject of keeping them clean and looking good keeps coming in to my mind...lol

 

Jim,

The wheels you already have look fairly easy to clean with fairly flat surfaces. Certainly easier than the twenty spoke or so wheels I have on my car.

 

Jim,

I like the wheels you currently have, but I may slightly prefer the aftermarket wheels you are considering. Whether my slight preference for the aftermarkets would justify the cost, I can't say. And your car looks really great just as it is!

Cheers,

Don
