Default Rims Advise

I just bought a 1992 Jag and was wondering what sizes of rims can I fit on the car? Also do you know what the offset or bolt pattern need so I can find some rims to put on my Jag. Thanks

Hi Caddy,

I have a set of those 16" Lattice, I thought they were for a Le Mans edition XJS. They were factory XJ12 too? Canada or Europe? Never saw them in U.S.

Really?

I've seen quite a few XJ40/V12s with the 16" lattice wheels here in the USA. In fact I thought they were standard issue for that car <shrug>

Cheers

I would advise you to go to reputable tire shop and they will be able to tell you how big you can go. The rule is simple the total diameter of the wheel and tire should stay about the same all you are changing is the tire to wheel ratio, meaning more wheel less tire. I would also tell you to watch the with of the new wheels as wider wheels can cause rubbing in the wheel wells and possibly the outer fender. I hope this helps, keep us posted

i suggest 20's to be safe your wheels should be no bigger than 20x9.5 but you can also use 8.5 just to be safe your tires should be 255/35/20 in the front and the rears 285/30/20

or you can do 235/35/20 all the way around.
