When I'm not ordering parts for the XK8 restoration or working on it I spend tons of time looking on the web for ideas etc. Came across an old Paramount Performance add and the wheels on this picture just send me over the top. I'm trying to find out what they are and who supplies them or if they are even still available. I have contacted Paramount who are now handled by Viezu. They are having a look at it for me. Anyone else recognize these wheels?

 

I'm pretty sure they are a factory wheel, and I'm sure I saw a set for sale recently, maybe even in the Jaguar Forum Classifieds. I'll look for them and get back to you. They are very nice.

 

Attached is the link to the Jaguar Forum classified ad. It is not the same wheel, but similar except for the "knock-off" hubs (which I assume are not real). But I know I have seen these same wheels before, I'll keep looking.

Maby I'm cursing in Church now but maby you should ask these guys.

Yes that site has a picture of a coupe with the same wheels but the thread is so long ago I dont think I will get a reply but I am going to try thanks

 

All I know for sure is those are not factory Jaguar wheels of any kind, from any make or model. Probably doesn't help you much, but at least you know where not to look..

 

Looks like Arden:

Or the OZ Futura style.

 

Loos like the OZ wheels Lotus fitted to the Esprit S4s.

 

I think you could be right they look much like the OZ wheel!

 

Found this on Ebay. It appears the wheels are in fact OZ Futura 19", Arden Jaguar, BMW, Split rims. This was an old listing and it appears that these wheels maybe hard to locate. Well I have the time so hopefully I will stumble across some :-)
