Coventry Hornet Wheels
HI, I too bought the Coventry Hornet Chrome wheels, best price came from Discount Tires as well, They came direct from Manufacturer in calif, they were delivered next day.
One of the best looking wheels for XKR around. Although won't break my heart if you don't put them on, I like the exclusivity.
I'm in AZ and many look and ask about them, I rarely tell where they came from, but for you, I make concession because you are Jaguar Forum member!
They are high quality and solid, dealer spun before install said they were as true as he's seen.
Ps. Easy to keep clean as well, if you do not like high polish chrome they offer with other finishes as well.
Pss. The Gowler center caps fit perfect.
Enjoy the ride...

Xk8/xkr wheel fitment
I found 4 bbs factory 2 piece jag chrome wheels (used) but they were from a 02 xkr and the seller says they will fit my 02 xk8 convertible. You guys are the professionals and so will they fit my 02 xk8? The wheels are 18inch from the xkr. I really want them if the fitment is correct? 2k for the wheels. The local jaguar dealer is not helping with my fitment concerns.

for all OEM wheels available, check out the accessory catalog in the FAQ thread. Skid is correct, there wasn't any 18-inch BBS wheels made for the XK8/XKR...all were 20-inchers.
Now, the XJ8/XJR of the same generation, they have some smaller size BBS wheels that will be an exact match to your bolt pattern and offset. A few xj owners put double five wheels from the XKR onto them, looks good.
It could very well be the 18" Milan style, I like em! Comes in two colors, and oyster (goldish) and a bright silver. Oh, and if you do get them, keep those rings away from the curbs. They're worth more than gold pressed latinum, saw an ebay ad for 2 new rings - $270!
The 19-inch variety is the Montreal, also comes in the two colors.

XK8 wheels
Yes the wheels would be for the upgrade to my XK8 and I know flashy shiney things attract onlookers but isnt that the point we would like? However, robbers, theives be aware this Jag lover and father will protect with brutal force! I hope to pick up the newly painted XK today! I sure do hope it does not thunderstorm any this weekend. I sure glad I joined Jag Forums. You folks are funny and interesting.

We're just lookin'out for you and yours, Dave. When you get the car back let the paint sit and breathe for a week or more before you throw any wax or coatings on it. Good paint jobs require patience..both in the process, and in the gassing out after. I hope they did a first class job.
I hope your daughter appreciates what your doing and handing to her.
