Performance Brakes on S with 19 wheels?
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Had my S for about 5 months now and am looking for winter tires and new rims, but want to downsize to 19. (Currently have 20)
The dealer said that I have the performance brakes ( which are 18.5) and told me the 19 rims wont fit.
Has anyone tried this downsize with the larger brakes?
Appreciate any feedback and advice!

Any and all of the OEM F-Type 19" wheels will fit perfectly OK over all three of the steel F-Type brake set-ups including the S 380 mm front calipers.
It's only other Jag and most after-market 19" wheels which won't fit over the front calipers.

Unless you have the Carbon Ceramic Matrix (CCM) brakes over which only two types of 20" wheels will fit.

The previous V6S came with 19" wheels and 380 mm brakes as stock, but then it was replaced by the P380 a couple of years ago.
Now when I go to the Jaguar USA site and try to "build my own" 2021 F-Type it shows 18" wheels as stock on the I4 (P300) but it doesn't show what wheels are stock on the P380 or V6 R-Dynamic, instead it shows three versions of 20" wheels as options. And nowhere on that site/page can I find any mention of 19" wheels.
Maybe just maybe 19" wheels were discontinued on the 2021 F-Type and those dealerships are trying to fit 18" wheels over the 380 mm front brakes (which we know will not fit) coz they simply don't have any 19" wheels to try?
Edit - yep, confirmed, no mention whatsoever on the site or in the brochure of 19" wheels, the P380 now comes stock with 20" wheels so it looks like the 19 "wheels have been discontinued.

On other modes (XF and XJ) some of the 19inch wheels didn't fit over the 380mm calipers on the front brakes. (They were sold with 20inch oem wheels). So they may be confusing with those models
Note that the F Type OEM 19inch wheels will fit as mentioned above. But other Jag 19inch wheels from other models may or may not. (Offsets prob not right anyway)
So yes - you should be fine on the f type.
