Default Double Five Wheels

Has anyone fitted double-fives (pictured below) on their XJR?

Second, and more importantly, does
anyone have any for sale? The only set I can find on the internet is chipped terribly. May have to buy an XK8 and swap the Pentas.

This is the man who has about 4 sets of wheels for each of his jags. This is a link to his posted pics on his personal profile, just scroll away... https://www.jaguarforums.com/g/album/4964387
Eric is a super nice guy, haven't seen him posting in awhile though.

Both my 2000MY XKR convertibles have these as standard.

Be aware that the XKR has 18 x 9 on the rear axle and 18 x 8 on the front.
The XJR is usually 18 x 8 all around.(eg. Asteroids)

Good to know. I know the montreals were larger but upon further review it appears those were 19x8.5, so a slightly different bird. I’ll keep an eye out at your suggested link - currently just pentas which I do like for a classic muscle car look, but I can’t afford a $6,000 set of the montreals so these looked next-best. I’m less fond of the Perseus’ than any of the aforementioned three.
