Hello jaguar owners! I own a very nice 2007 XK coupe british racing green! I have the standard 18" venus wheels on with winter tyres but I'd like to buy new wheels for summer tires and my dealer in finland is very very bad! They don't know which wheels are fit for the 2007 model. I ordered the caravela wheels and they didn't fit for the car and they showed the rims that they (think!?) Would fit. I didn't like them so much as there was only two where to choose. It would make my day if someone could tell here all the factory options for this car! And what kind of wheels you have on in your non face lifted model?

Best regards.

 

I posted all the pre- and post-facelift factory wheels in your earlier thread.

 

oh yes indeed. . Thank you!

 

I like the selena wheels and there seems to be 3 different finishes. Do you guys have selena wheels?
pictures would be nice!

 

Helpful graphic of X150 wheel offerings.

 

If buying (silver) Selenas, just make absolutely sure the rears are for a pre-facelift XK, as they were made for both. Best course of action is probably to install JEPC and ask potential sellers for the part numbers on the wheels, to make sure they're the right ones. I dug the part numbers for the Selenas:

20" Selena "shadow finish"
Front: C2P17787
Rear pre-facelift: C2P17788

20" Selena "silver finish"
Front: C2P14975
Rear pre-facelift: C2P15027
Rear post-facelift: C2P19371

 

Thank you, you have been so helpful!

 

Is there a place you would recommend ordering from? I live in Finland and my dealer is terrible, so I'd like to order them myself.

 

From my North American market 4.2L 2009 XKR Portfolio. Selena wheels were standard equipment unique to the 2009 XKR Portfolio models. My car is fitted with the optional Alcon Performance Brake Package with 6-piston front and 4-piston rear calipers and larger crescent-grooved rotors.

 

Wow! Your car is beauriful! Really like those wheels with that body color

 

If you want (and can afford) brand new, genuine Selena wheels, your only source is an authorized Jaguar new car dealer.

Many independent companies sell used/refurbished and replica wheels on the internet, including Ebay and their own websites. Buyer Beware! Do your due diligence before buying from any of these sellers.

You should also check with Forum sponsors that sell wheels. They may be able to get what you want.

 

Ok! Thank you! Yes I'm planning to get brand new wheels. Your wheels are the shadow finish ones?

 

20" Vortex are the best looking XK wheel design. Not a fan of 20" in general, but that styling is perfect looking to my eyes.

 

Search the internet for the CP# of the wheels you are looking for. Tons of options and it may be cheaper to ship from the US or Oz versus pay the Euro premium.

 

thanks!!

 

New wheels are off-puttingly expensive, obviously, and it's unlikely you'll find a clearance sale on them. As such, refurbished would be my pick.

Here are some I found, though as I decided to go with a single wheel set and just swap the tires on them, in the end I haven't got any experience with these.

eBay (UK):
Elite Wheels and Tyre Ltd
crouchy999

One thing to look out for, btw, is that some are selling wheel sets from an XF (which are more common than XKs) and advertising them for "XF or XK". However, the XF wheels are all the same width as the XK fronts, while the XK rears are wider. At least the Selena (misspelled as Selina) sets by crouchy999 appear to be XF sets.

This shop also has some refurbished Jag wheels, though the Selena sets seem to be non-staggered. Their url is a bit weird, though, since it's just an IP address...

 

I've tried to search for these selena wheels with the product numbers for the pre-facelifted model and every web site says that they are for 2008- models, so I'm unsure where I should try to buy them, and many jaguar part sites doesn't have these wheels or if they have the information is nonexistent. I don't want to buy second hand.

 

My car is running Toba's from an '14 XJ and they look like a smoother version of the original Jupiter's. 10" out back, 9" up front and I'm running a 20mm spacer out back.

 

Yes. That was the only finish available for the 2009 XKR Portfolio models.

 

Vortex is my favorite design, too.


The Vortex design was never available for 4.2L North American models. The Vortex design in a silver painted finish was introduced with the limited production UK market 4.2L 2008 XKR-S. They are very rare.

The Vortex design pictured above in a machined face with gloss black painted inner surfaces was reintroduced with the 5.0L models. Note that the introduction of the E-diff with the 5.0L required the rear wheel offset to be changed, so they won't fit the 4.2L models (unless a spacer is used, which is not recommended).
