I'd stick to only Jaguar OEM wheels. The aftermarket always looks so after market.
Yes, but you specifically hate using even non-OEM oil and fluids. I'm not ragging you for that though, it's just preference. You ARE correct though, some/most aftermarket wheels are a horrible choice for the XK.
Here...I think this would make the car look nicer. Sort of the visual equivalent of the starting fifteen seconds of Red Hot Chili Peppers' song Parallel Universe (you can hear it here:
Nice wheels! Very "blade-like" looking to me. Remind me of some Oz Superleggerras I had before.
I had the same wheels (although in hypersilver rather than chrome) on my XFS then XFR and loved how they looked, the best looking after-market wheels for later Jags IMHO. What really sold me on them was the nice deep dish for the rears which I have never found in any other after-market Jag wheels. Other selling points are they are the correct PCD and centre bore and you can get them in different offsets so you don't need spacers.
I will need new tyres for the F-Type in about 8 or 10 months time and I'm seriously considering getting the same Whitleys again at the same time, my only worry is that the 20" Whitleys don't go any wider than 10" whereas the OEM F-Type rear wheels are 10.5" and 10" might be a just a tad too skinny for 295 tyres.
My 05 XKR Coupe as pictured is wearing 295/35ZR19 Continental Extemecontact Sport tires. They fit just fine on the Whitley Hyper Silver 10” wide rims.
Thanks for that, I've done some more research and confirmed that 295s (295/30ZR20) should be OK on the 20" x 10" Whitley.
And sorry about thinking your pictured wheels were the chrome version rather than hypersilver, maybe it was just the really good pic!
Perfect OEM fit.
Perfect fit for the car is a bit different. The OEM rears fit great on the front, especially with the help of a 3mm spacer. Rears can be 11" easy, but need a custom offset. Even 325/30/20s will work
