I cracked my Selena rim and need a new one. Although the old one was welded it is no longer true. Do you know where I can get a deal on one or all four?
Thanks!

eBay has several.

Hope this helps.

You may want to consider a set of aftermarket wheels IF you do not have the optionable Alcon brakes on your 2009 XKR PE.

You can save thousands of $$ by going with aftermarket wheels like the Coventry brand. Great look, great value.

 

Thomas,

I'm pretty sure that the 20" Selena wheel was also available on the XF, but I don't know if they're the same color, offset and width as on the 2009 XKR Portfolio. You can (1) place a WTB ad on the Classifieds section of this Forum, (2) check with the Forum Sponsors that sell parts and (3) search eBay from time to time. Just make sure that the offset and width are the same as your OEM wheels. Color isn't important since you can have them refinished to match.

Does your car have the Alcon Performance Brakes?

As an alternative to the OEM Selena wheels, you might want to consider the aftermarket Braelin wheels that Richzak put on his 2009 XKR Portfolio. His car is equipped with Alcons and the Braelins fit with no spacers. A new set of Braelins are probably less expensive than a refurbished set of Selenas.

If you find a refurbished Selena, make sure to get a written guarantee that it has never had any weld repairs and that it is not bent and runs true. And pay with a credit card so you can dispute the charge if the seller lied.

I have a complete set of 20" Selena's, stored in wheel boxes but as I told Thomas, I will give them to anybody who buys my XKR. Otherwise, I would sell Thomas my set. As noted above, eBay has several Selena wheels listed for sale.

My best suggestion as mentioned is to buy a set of aftermarket wheels and slip them on the XKR. If Thomas has the Alcon's then he would have a problem.

I just bought new aftermarket wheels for my Jag and I kept the 4 Chrome Selena Rims that came on the car. 1 has a crack, 1 has a repaired crack but the other 2 are fine. However, I'm in Ohio so shipping costs might be high. If you haven't already found what you're looking for, please feel free to contact me via PM or at snidensx@gmail.com

 

Your XK didn't come from the factory with Selena wheels, so they must have been installed by a previous owner. Selenas were introduced exclusively on the 2009 XKR Portfolio, and came from the factory painted, not chrome; only the separate decorative bolt-on trim pieces were chrome. Since your Selenas are chrome, they were done aftermarket most likely using the old-school process of chrome electroplating. That process compromises the structural integrity of alloy wheels, which increases the likelihood of impact damage. Today's OEM "chrome" wheels use PVD technology, which is more environmentally-friendly and doesn't weaken the underlying metal.

 

100% correct.

 

Wow you guys are awesome! Thank you for all of your advice. My car does not have Alacon brakes. I think I will buy a single rim because I like the Selena rims. Thank you again!

 

Thanks to Stuart's input, I decided to throw away my chrome Selena wheels, but before doing so, I decided to try an alternative use for one of them. See attached picture - if you don't mind turning your head! Sorry.

 

Looks nice!
A guy at work did something similar, took a pair of racing slicks, stacked them in his office, and put a glass top on it, to remind him of his racing days.

 

Excellent idea!
