Have a Series 2 and tires all need replacing. Friend has 4 16 inch rims from his 1995 XJ6 with 225/60/16 almost new tires I can get for dirt cheap. But will they fit? Anyone? Need to act quickly.

 

Yes, depending on the style of wheel you will need to also purchase spacers for the front due to the center hub sticking out too far or you can run the front without the growler caps.

 

I had the same problem with XJ40 wheels on my S1. Had to use spacers so the tires would not hit the tie rod ends. I did have to get longer lug nuts from a speciality wheel
store. You need a minimum of four complete threads holding the wheel on per each lug nut. With the new longer ones (plus the needed washers) I now have 8+ threads per
lug nut holding the wheels on in the front. They are not needed in the rear as no spacers were required.

But, I found the taking off a center cap and fitting a flat piece of plastic there, the only contact was the four plastic clips holding the growler cap in place.

I cut them off, and used RTV cement to hold the cap(s) in place. Now they are on the car without anyone having a clue how.

Before I found this out, I had removed the grease caps for more room, now the caps are back on there, but I used a hammer to flatten them as much as possible for the needed room.
