[modern] Aftermarket Wheels on 94 xj12

All,

I want to put aftermarket wheels on my 94 xj12.
Has anyone done this and if so what wheel offset did you use?

Thanks
Bobby

I first want to ask which ones you have now??? If they are those special
metal alloy rims (non-chrome) and have many small spokes in them… I once saw
an XJ-S with same style of rims but chromed and they looked great!! So
chroming them may be an option…
I will really be careful on getting rims capable of handling all that
weight… around 5000lbs / 4 wheels or 1250 lb a wheel. Probably your best
option is to get X300 (XJR) rims Most of them loof very good. Another thing
you can consider is brake dust cover that allows the rims not to get dirty.
(someone mentioned this before).

Man, ALL the factory and accessory wheels from Jaguar are awesome. Why
would you even want to go to an aftermarket wheel? There are so many
excellent choices. I too like the “Lattice” wheel, but the 16", not 15"
size on this particular car. Have them stripped, and the rims polished and
you won’t find a better looking wheel.
