Well I have a question for y'all

I have a 99 XJR with chrome rims that are in bad condition (the chrome is)

Anyhow I wanted to know if I could fit 19X9 in the front and 19X10 in the rear, basically the RIMs are from a 2011 XJ

I need new tires anyway so I don't mind swapping out the rims.
Any thoughts?

 

The hole centres are different so the later rims will not fit.

 

Any recommendations on new rims?
18" 20" but nothing screaming I like the look of the current rims I have but fixing them is around $180 + tax for each rim....

 

You can try some XJR/XK8 rims from the same period, up to 2003 or BMW wheels of desired size, having 5x120 studs disposal.

 

Couldn't the holes be machined bigger if they're too small?

I wonder if it would be more viable (cheaper) option to have the chrome removed and paint the rims, instead of having them re-chromed..?

 

this almost seems too good to be true, but this website has Jaguar OEM asteroid alloys for $111.95 each. they give you free shipping if you get 4

18" x 8" Alloy Wheel - Auto Parts Fair®

at that price I think it almost has to be a scam

I have someone in my area selling these for a decent price with continental rubber on them
18x8.5 Beyern Five Chrome Wheel/Rim(s) 5x120 5-120 18-8.5 BMW | eBay

do you think they will fit? they are 18X8 and 5X120

 

They're some fugly wheels, just look for oem manufactured and you will not have problems. I learnt long ago not to buy anything but oem because they're not egg shaped and stay round.
The advice above about looking into XK8 as well as X308 gives a large choice, or just fit a good set of Asteroid Jaguar XJ8 wheels...or get the originals powder coated...

 

Asteroid Rims only will run about $1200-1400
While these somewhat fugly (ok... maybe a bit more then somewhat) with continental tires that were driven 2000 miles and everything came off a BMW M5 would run me $500

As for powder coat the original rims this is something that might take 3-6 weeks at crazy prices

 

I have set of 5 ateriod rims with tires from my XJR. Anyone is interrested

 

What tires and how much, as well where are you located?
Are you the person selling the XJ8 in Plano?
