Default Official XJ ( X350 & X358 ) Picture Thread

I thought it would be nice to have one thread in the XJ forum where everyone can post and view XJ photos. I searched and didn't find much of a single thread to go to. If the mods think this should be moved to photography than that's fine too. But I thought it'd be nice to sticky it to the XJ forum.


I'd be nice to see everyone's ride. Here is my 04 XJR.

Here's my baby, as bought below.

I've since had her remapped for more power, and my private plate X6 JYM added ( more pics later )

I'm working my way through a few issues and hope to get her to the level I want as soon as both time and money allow



















Thanks

Beavis, your car looks great on those wheels, If it was sittin a little lower it'd really make a statement. What size are the wheels, offset? How wide of a tire are you able to run?

Did you have any rubbing issues with them? Did you have to modify anything to get them to clear?

@Muddybear - Yes, you have to cut away the inner wheels arch liner. I did this, sealed the gap with mastic, then put stone chip on the exposed metalwork. The extra width on the tyres though makes it look more agressive. You thinking of going wider then?
