Hello all new member. Posted my intro. I’m hopeful I can get a little guidance on spacers for my XKR. I have the 19 oem setup and want to order a set for front and back. Wondering what is max size without impact to performance etc. Brand would be helpful as well.

thanks all

 

The generally accepted max size on modern Jags is 20 mm and the most commonly used size is 15 mm.
You could argue that 20 mm on the rear and 15 mm on the front is the best set-up for an XKR.
Lots of brands to choose from, H&R is well known and respected but not cheap.
I put 15 mm Teeze spacers on my F-Type and they have been great.
Chinese and cheap but still a quality product, see here: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3274...2-c19820e34402

 

HubCentric spacers all the way. Front can go 20mm and rear 15mm. Check that the studs do not interfere with the mounting surface of the wheels. Some wheels have reliefs in the back of the wheel where the protruding stud will go nicely, others are a flat surface which will contact the end of the studs.

 

Beat me by less than a minute. Dangit.

 

Yes, but you had the correct answer. 20mm front and 15mm rear.

 

Are you sure?
I dunno much about the later XKR but from the OP's pics on a nearby thread it sure looks to me like the rears could do with a little more extra poke than the fronts!

 

Absolutely positive. Why do you doubt me? Well, I guess you COULD go 17mm, but you'd need custom spacers. Those are like $2,300 for two.

 

OK, I shall defer to an actual XKR owner!
But I have no doubt you could get four let alone two 17 mm spacers for a helluva lot less than $2,300 US, there was group buy on the F-Type sub-forum a ways back for 17 mm spacers (exact same 5x108 bolt pattern, PCD and centre bore as an XKR) for way less than that.
And I'm fairly sure that if you asked the Teeze mob nicely they would be happy to CNC some 17 mm ones up for not much extra cost over their stock items.

 

Yeah, I was trying to make a point, not going for accuracy.
Me, I did some serious research on custom wheel sizes and found a way to get the OEM rears on the front, they fit very well with a (I think, can't rightly remember right now) 5mm spacer, and then some (again, can't rightly remember) 12 X 20 wheels with some sort of offset. I have it all written down somewhere but, like my ****, can't remember where it is.

 

Hey, I found the stuff!




And then the graphic for the rears I made on some website, can't rightly remember the site name though;

 

Aw, man, caveat on all that above. That's for a 2010-2011, I do believe the 2012+ cars have different offsets, and the 2006-2009s are just weird.

 

thank you all. Is it safe to assume from
what I have read so far that I can go 15 front and 20 rear. I am not equipped to remove wheel and fit so I need a out of box product. Ozxfr put teeze spacers on and had no issue so I assume those will do the trick.

I find there is LOTS of space width wise with this car so I’m looking forward to minimizing that.

 

Well I have take-offs from a 2014 XKRS GT on my 2010 XKR and I needed no spacers on the rear and 20mm on front, for what its worth...

NONONONONOOOOOO!!!!

20mm Front, 15mm Rear. You got 'em backwards.

 

Maybe, maybe not.
Easy enough to check, get two of each then whack 'em on one way round and check fit/look/driving dynamics then take 'em off and whack 'em on the other way around and check again.

 

No Maybe/maybe not whatsoever.
20mm Front
15mm Rear.

 

Thank you ! Favourite brand ?
