Default Wheels for XJR vs XJ8

I am trying to set up winter wheels and tires. Do the x350 XJ8 and XJRs use the same bolt pattern and offset?
I would like to go to 18" wheels for the winter (I have 20's on now).
I found some off an XJ8...can I get them?

04-08 had same bolt pattern: 5x108

Wheels on XJR were 19 or 20 inch most of the time.... All had a +48 offset. I have XKR wheels from a 2010 on my XJ8... They are bad ***!

It is not the wheels you have to worry about.... XJR, XKR, and S type R all had Brembo brakes... They are large, and can strike some 18 inch wheels... You will need to check for clearance before mounting em... If they clear, you will be fine....

Cheers!

My 2004 XJR came with a set of Coventry 18 inch wheels with winter treads and they are fine with the Brembo brakes. 20 inch Sepangs were factory wheels and now reserved for summer use. Going thru the tedious chore of the seasonal tire rotation perhaps today
