Default Looking for these Jaguar Wheels

Due to the current condition of my tires, dry rot & cracking, they are probably not going to pass inspection. I was thinking of upgrading the wheels. I found these wheels on 2 separate XJC's that appear to be 17" wheels but, can not find the manufacture or model of them. I was wondering the community has any idea where I can buy these wheels.

not a factory wheel in my opinion. Never seen them in USA cars or any other car. Must be a European wheel but not offered by Jaguar.

They look like a mimic of the wheels fitted to the D-type racing car, but those had centre locks with spinners.

I figured they were replicas of the racing wheels and not stock.

I love the style of them.

Smile Available Repro's

Bradley,

These are available from Realm Engineering in Britain. Tho the largest they list are 16". And yes, those in your pictures look larger. They sell them as real spin-offs. or bolt-on's with dummy spinners. The wheels in your pictures appear as a bolt-on without the spinners. Not cheap. But do look spectacular!

The wheels on the green car look like a lot like Jaguar CCC6904 16 x 7" steelies with an adapted hubcap. Painted or powder coated, it might be a practical way to get the look you want.

Yes those repros are gorgeous. But that's not what's on the green car--they're steel.
