I put 15 mm wheel spacers all the way around the car. I think it gives it a better stance ... More than factory look. What do you think?

 

Pictures are small but looks nice from what I can see. Caution with the front spacers especially -- there's already an issue with front tires causing paint chipping around rocker panels.

Did you roll the fenders?

 

Wheres the blond?

 

You need to take that bad boy to Cars and Coffee Houston at Vintange Park this Saturday (better yet, your wife does ).

 

Not sure about wheel offset differences between the XK and XKR but, for my XK 20mm seems perfect for the front but, seems just a bit too far out for the rears. I just ordered 15mm spacers for the rears and will likely sell the two 20s I have on now.

Crateman, we need more pictures! Looks killer, but hard to see the full glory of the setup from those two shots. Maybe 3/4 rear, another shot from the front to back, like 1' from the side of the car back?

Dying to see more!

More pics!!!

 

are you gonna put up pics of your car or what.... Oh wait I see them

 

I sure hope you aren't gonna put a license plate on the front of that beautiful beast!

 

No plate !!! Never ..Give me the ticket!

 

I really like that combination; the green really looks great on her.

Oh, the car is nice too... :-)

It really helps showing of the beatiful shape of those fenders, lovely to see the curves from this angle. The headlamps certainly stand out, something you can be proud of standing in your drive way. A great choice and something you can have a lot of fun with.

The Jag and the BMW look ok too

 

Same here. I use "I just detailed the car and did not have a chance to put back on", but that hasn't happened yet in ove 10 years with no front plate. I once got a parking ticket for no plate, but that was just $25.

 

after driving a white xkr-s at road atlanta during the American Petit LeMans Series race last year, as Jaguar had a tent set up, i am totally envious...

the car is nothing but power... i pulled out of road atlanta and whipped the rear end out not even trying to! Coupled with Sport mode and the Sport Suspension button depressed, with Traction Control off, I could not help but take the Jaguar Representative for a little bit of harmless drifting around the Chateau Elan area... :P

 

Just a quick question; is you car "aftermarket" lowered or, does it come with the factory suspension option that lowers the car a bit less than 1"?

I really like the way it sits.

I am contemplating spacers on my 11'.

Can you post more front angle pictures. Stock the fronts sit in quite a bit more than the rear as you can see on my pic below. Do you feel that the fronts would look better with 20mm?

I think 20s would be better in the front. That way the wheels would appear to be evenly spaced from the fenders front and back. A fairly important point I think.

 

Ok, so I did the spacers. It has nearly perfect stance now. It actually rides better too. Feels more planted.

 

Nice meeting you guys today at C&C
