Welcome to the forum Rohan.

I've moved your post to the XJ section, hopefully someone there will be able to help.

I thought that the Series 1 XJ has the 5 x 120.5 bolt pattern, which is the same as some old chevs, but also the same for all XJ's up to 2003, as well as the XJS, so it shouldn't be too hard to find some wheels? Don't put Commodore wheels on it, they are 5 x 120 and that 0.5mm makes a big difference!

In the meantime, why not stop by our new member section and introduce yourself New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum

I would think the Mark 2 wheels are not wide enough for XJ tyres. As I recall, my Mark 2 was 185x15, whereas my XJ6 was 205/15. So you have a 20mm difference. I would think the wheel bolts are the same fixing, though.

Thanks mate, looking to put some white wall tyres on mine so the tyre fitment should really matter hopefully. I'll double check before I purchase them anyway.
