Hey Jaguny-

H&R springs
Klassen 3-piece forged CS10R
Brushed face, polished windows , polished lug pockets, polished lips with clear coat
Front - 21x9.5 michelin PS4s 255/30/21
Rear- 21x11 michelin PS4s 305/25/21

My friend at www.eliteimportz.com took the measurements for offsets and made sure everything fit properly. Also, I'm pretty sure they'll match/beat anyone else's price.
More pics on Klassen's site here https://www.klassenid.com/wheel-coll...modular/cs10r/
I am very happy with the fit and finish.

Any reason you decided not to upsize to 265s on the front? That’s the optimal size for 9.5” wide rims.

I went with pretty aggressive offsets and didnt want to risk it. Maybe on the next set of rubber I'll give it a shot.

Beautiful set of wheels. The finishes you spec'd are subtle, but the impression they make is truly visible. Nice work.

What offset did you use for the front?

New to me wheels with slight offset after a quick clean up. I'll have my custom Jaguar center caps done soon.

Who is doing the center caps for you?

A guy in Spain, of all places. I got a sample that was convex and it didn't work out (I'd need to figure a way to make it stay in place well on the existing center caps) so I'm having two sets made that are flat. One set of the correct Red growler and another of the leaper on a black background, both in metal. When I get home, I'll post a picture of the convex one. It's quite nice and I may do more with that later.

I got some custom center caps made for dirt cheap from these folks. To my surprise, they actually look great IMO. I can snap a pic of what I received in case anyone is interested.

A pic and who “these folks” are would be great. Thanks.

Here's the convex one, on top of a 32oz crowler for perspective and because perspectives are fun, a standard can next to that. I ordered 75mm because that's what size my center caps are.

The link for his store is here: https://tinyurl.com/ybao3sab

Just whip a front wheel off and look at the inside, the offset will either be stencilled/engraved/stickered on the barrel or cast into one of the spokes.

My front 9.5” setup has a total offset of 43 mm with the 265 tires with no clearance issues whatsoever. The diameter of my 265/35-20 tire is actually a scoshe larger (1mm) than that of a 265/30-21 tire. You would have no issue with the 265 tire.

Our Saturday drive was a good opportunity to get an "after" pic of the Jag. Took some pics here (Alki Beach, Seattle WA) last year before any mods.

Before:


After (lowered with APV springs, 21" VS-Forged VS03 wheels, Michelin Pilot S4S tires, addition of lovely wife):


I am really enjoying the car with these mods. The original design was gorgeous, but I can't leave anything well-enough-alone...
