Guys, I'm having a problem. Hope u can help. Went to the Jag dealer to order WINTER wheels/tires for my '06 Super V8 Portfolio Edition. This car has 20" stock wheels. They could not find 18" wheels anywhere that would fit this particular car (including Tirerack). I guess because of the bigger brake capilers it is an issue. Any suggestions as where to get 18" wheels that would fit a '06 Super V8 Portfolio? It will be snowing soon here in Wisconsin....thx !!

I have the 18" Tucana wheels on my 2005 Super V8 for the winter tires, think they change the brakes slighlty in 2006 so I can't guarantee these would work but it seems likely they would.
I found mine used on Ebay pretty cheap, just had a look now and could only find some somewhat expensive refurbs on there, here is the link for reference:

Hmmmm.......
I'm thinking if the weather gets that bad in Milwaukee, it's time to find a used 4x4 that can handle severe snow conditions, and let the Jag hibernate; after all, bears do it !
Seriously, I would not want to risk my Jaguar on snowbound roads, the car is not really built for that kind of driving. Of course if you have diligent road clearance gangs, maybe you will be OK, but think about all that salt-laden muck getting on your pride and joy !
