I don't think they are Jaguar items. They look a little like Milan 18" but have double spokes whereas the Milan has (5) single spokes. They do look nice though.

Yes they are nice

The ad claims that they are factory wheels though.

They look almost like XKR 'Senta' wheels, but I don't think they are OEM.

I agree with xjrguy. I think whoever wrote the ad is 'full of it'. Those do not look like the sort of wheels that Jaguar would put on an LWB. I think that they would probably regard them as a bit too 'leery'!

Cheers,

Languid

Plums,

p.s. maybe I'm wrong about it being an LWB - just hard to tell from thye angle of the photo, but the rear door does look a little longer than the std wheelbase version.

Cheers,

Languid

They're nice though.

The other pictures show that the car is a SWB, or at least it is not noticeably longer in the rear door than usual.
