New Wheels
You have done very well in your personal selection of rims and tires.
The profile looks great (tires to rims).
Enjoy the ride. Your car will turn lots of heads and you are sure to receive many compliments on Jag.
Nice photos. Yep, looks better with those tyres. Definitely striking wheels; I'm in two minds about the chrome lip, but then I'm not a chrome guy (as the photo of my car further up this thread will testify). But it's good arch-filling look.
Beautiful. In my view, it's tough to improve on the stock Kalimnos 20's, but these make a darn good argument. I go back and forth on chrome lips. I have had cars with, and cars without.
I can see why you're tempted to move out the fronts a bit. Only real way to know is to try it....

Got them at Acute Performance www.acuteperformance.com. Michael (owner) is a fanatic in a good way. He'll respnd to email at all hours. Whether you do Cor or some other high-end wheels he will take good care of you. Still awaiting offsets.
If you still have the center caps from your old OEM wheels, see if they are the same size as the Cor center caps and if they will fit the new Cor wheels. I think the OEM Growler center cap is 2.25" wide and fits a 2" hole, but I'm not sure if that applies to 2010-up 5.0L models.
Mina Gallery sells a custom red "R" center cap for $11.99 each, but I'm not sure if they will fit your Cor wheels: Jaguar "R" Performance Wheel Cap

I like the "R" better than the Growler and think they would look great with the chrome lip on your Cor wheels. Plus, they're a quality item. My first choice if they will fit.
Or you can buy some really cheap red Growler caps (aftermarket from Hong Kong) on eBay:
jaguar wheel center caps red in eBay Motors | eBay

Probably poor quality chrome-plated plastic that wouldn't last long, but for under $10 delivered for a set of 4 what do you have to lose?
Or you can buy the genuine article from your dealer's parts department.
The Growler sticker that I bought from an eBay vendor is only 1" in diameter and is too small to stick over your Cor center cap. I wouldn't use a sticker over a center cap because it won't stay on very long and would look cheap compared to your Cor wheels.
Hope this helps,
Stuart
No go on the OEM or Mina. I measured and the OEM opening is about 2.25 whereas the COR opening is about 3".
But I am Google'ing to see if there are some 3" or custom ones out there for aftermarket wheels...
