I'm considering replacing my 19" Silver Propeller Wheels with black wheels that are more of a 5 spoke type look (Similar to blade/cyclone). I've read the various threads on the board and checked out the suggested websites, but I cannot find what I am looking for. I also need a little bit of a wheel compatibility education.

Questions:
1. Are 19" and 20" interchangeable and do I need to change the tire size to compensate for the larger diameter wheels?
2. Can I go from 2014 V6s wheels to 2015 or 2016 or v8 or base or R or SVR or whatever without having issues with them fitting?
3. When I see many different size options for 19", how do I know which ones are an exact fit if I am going aftermarket? What are the exact specs for the 19" Silver Propeller Wheels to match? What would the equivalent be in a 20", if such a thing exists.


Here is a sample of something that I like and saw doing the web searches. Anyone recognize these?

 

1. Your V6S can accommodate both 19" & 20" wheels. 20" OEM wheels come in exactly the following dimensions:
Front: 20x 9.0, 55mm offset, 63.4mm hubcentric bore
Rear: 20x 10.5, 38mm offset, 63.4mm hubcentric bore
To get the right diameter tire for the 20" rim, the OEM dimensions are 255/35-20 and 295/30-20, respectively. You can safely decrease those offsets by no more than 15mm to move the wheels outboard to look good.
Someone with the 19" wheels can provide you with the OEM specs for those wheels. Again, those OEM offsets can be decreased by as much as 15mm each.
2.Yes, all of the V8 OEM wheels will fit your car. Since you have 19" wheels now, you obviously don't have the carbon-ceramic brakes.
3.For the 20" wheels, see#1 above.

 

As far as I can tell the wheels in your pic are 20" and standard on the 400 Sport and they are called "Dark Satin Grey".

 

I think the front 20 inch OEM 9 inch front wheels are 55mm offset ?

 

Don't disregard black powercoating any non-black wheels you find. About $400-$450 in most areas.

Been very happy with my powdercoated Gyrodynes. Gloss black, have held up very well. The look is great with spacers. Only negative is the weight, but I don't track the car so not a big deal to me.

 

Thanks Oz, you are correct, they are from the 400. I didn't realize they were gray as opposed to black. I have black, and I am not sure about the black with gray. Tell me more about the powder coating process? Is it something that has a shelf life of a couple years or can it last many years? I'd even consider making the wheels I have black to get that look I want.

Unhingd - thanks for the technical information

 

I will double check to confirm.

You are indeed correct. 55mm

 

So I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on new rubber for my new 20" Black Cyclone wheels on my V6S moving from stock 19" wheels. I have decided that I am either going with the PSS or PS4 and stock sizes 255/35-20 and 295/30-20. After reading the various posts on spacers, overhang, curb rash protection, speedometer accuracy, etc...I've got a few follow-up questions.

1. Is there ANYTHING else I have to think about when going from 19" to 20" on my 2014 V6S? Like, "if you go up to 20", you have to upgrade your muffle bearings." or "Don't forget to XYZ". Yes, I know I need to either transfer my TPS or get a 2nd set of 315mhz TPS. I'm probably going to keep my chrome lug nuts as I've seen a mix of chrome vs black on black and both combos seem fine. IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE?
2. I went to a forum recommended website for spacers and didn't see F-Type as an available option on the Jaguar list. I think I want 10mm spacers that are good/safe/etc... Where is the place to get spacers of this size? I want to keep it as simple as possible and don't want anything too excessive from a spacer perspective (any impact to warranty here)
3. I would like to have some curb protection, as a result do I need to increase my tire size or will the stock size offer some overhang?
4. Is there a consolidated location for different tire size/spacer variations on the F-Type? I'd like to see pics with the corresponding specs of your setup. Is that something we can start posting here in this thread?
5, Finally, what are the impacts of moving up from 19" to 20"? Reduced/Improved handling? More Road Noise? Less Comfortable Ride? Warranty Implications, etc..

There is a lot of information across 50 different threads and I've tried to compile as much information as possible but hoping to consolidate for an easily referenced single location.

But to repeat #4, I would love to see pics of FTypes with various sized tires and spacers to better understand the combo that I like.


Thanks and happy holidays to everyone.

 

Regards spacers, all modern Jag wheels have the same PCD and centre bore so no need for specific F-Type spacers, any hub-centric S Type, XF, XJ etc will be perfectly OK. Heaps out there on Fleabay or you can go with brand names such as H&R or Eibach.
Best size is 15 mm or custom made 17 mm, depends on your wheels and whether or not the original studs fit in the holes/gaps in the backs of the wheels. Blade wheels are no problem at all with 15 mm spacers but most others need either 17 mm spacers or approx 3 mm ground off the end of each stud.

 

Following up on TPMS for the new wheels. I am planning to buy a set of 4 TPMS (#C2D38979 315mhz) for my '14 V6S. These will NOT be the ones that are on the existing factory wheels. What is the process for getting the new TPMS sensors to work? I am reading all the threads and there are comments about activating, syncing, auto-syncing after some driving, etc... The last thing I want is to put on new wheels and tires and then have to take it back to the shop or worse yet JLR dealer to figure out the TPMS. I've seen people getting their tires from Costco, do they have the capability to ensure the TPMS are properly activated/sync'd as part of installation? Michelins are $70 off a set of 4 until late January, now might be the time.


Thanks in advance

 

You are unlikely to have much trouble syncing OEM sensors, and Costco should be able to handle that for you. However, don't buy the sensors from a dealer. Will cost you $100+ each. I've successfully purchased used ones from these folks:https://www.ebay.com/itm/Land-Rover-...1ZeLfB&vxp=mtr

 

awesome, thanks for the link...he confirmed my VIN and I bought 4 of them just now
