Default 2007 XKR convertible wheel size options

My wonderful XKR has aftermarket 20 inch staggered wheels, 8 1/2 inch on the front and 9 1/2 inch on the rear. The tires are 275/30 ZR 20 on the rear and 245/35 ZR 20 on the front. The wheels came with the car and I want to replace them because of their poor condition and the rear wheels appear to be too wide for the vehicle.
My bolt pattern matches later model XKR's. Is there a jaguar XKR 20 inch allow wheel that has the correct offset so the rear tires stays under the wheels?
I would love to just bolts on later model 20 inch staggered wheels that fit properly, but I don't know enough to make that happen.
Thanks, in advance, for any help.

The 20" Sentas were an option on the '07. You should be able to find a set at a reasonable price from one of the forum vendors or ebay.

your rears are too wide and that's a 275 tire so i presume the offset is completely wrong.

No, the tires are actually narrower than OEM, which would be 255/35 front and 285/30 rear in the 20 inch wheels. So yes, the offset must be way off on those aftermarket wheels.
You won't want the wheels from a later model XK (the 5.0 cars), as they have a different offset in the rear to account for the eDiff on those cars.

P.S. If you haven't done so already, take the wheels off to see if the previous owner added wheel spacers to push the wheels outward.
