Default New Jaguar Wheels Mounted today

Today was my day.....after 8 months of researching, calling to find a perfect fitment, Fastco.ca (Canada) made my wheels. These are the Braelin BR02, drilled to my bolt pattern, milled for proper offset, and centerbored for a perfect fitment to my oversized rotors and Alcon brake calipers.

$1560 for the set...delivered to my door UPS, cleared through customs.

20" staggered set up....20 x 8.5 Front....20 x 10 rear.

Thank you Fastco.ca for a great job done.

If any Jaguar owner has an interest in these wheels, I have a personal contact at Fastco's vendor 1010 Tires, for superior service. Send me a PM.

2009 Jaguar XKR Portfolio Edition 1 of 200 imported into the USA by Jaguar.

Tell me what you think.

Rich,
They look great, they really set off the color of your car.
Did you put the R in the front grill?
P.S. They are doing my heat shield this week.

Excellent choice, a lot better looking than the Coventry, and a great price too. The hard work paid off. What offsets did you end up with?

Yes, I will customize the Jaguar caps to fit....probably the Black Growler caps.

Moving one step at a time....it took so long to find a set of wheels for proper fitment.

The Jaguar brand bolt pattern and center bore dimensions make aftermarket wheels difficult to find. Add in the addition of the oversized Alcon UK brakes calipers and largest brake rotors on a Jaguar car even created more fitment problems.

But I did it.

+35 offset Front 20" x 8.5"

+25 offset Rear 20" x 10"

Both offsets have about 10 to 11mm clearence to the Alcon calipers.

Great looks and the rotors are balanced out with the wheel size.

The producer of the wheel Fastco.ca which mills, drills and centerbores the wheels as with any seller, wants their logo/brand on the wheel. I fully understand.

However I can modify the Jaguar 59mm center cap to show as the center cap. I will work on that next. Should be easy fix, but I will provide my feedback to Fastco.ca on the centercap as most people will want the option to show their own automobile logo and brand. Every wheel is different in size for centercaps. My Porsche center caps won't fit the Jaguar and the Jaguar center cap won't fit the Porsche.

Nice job. I think the growler center caps will finish them off nicely!
