Hello from New York
Hello Everyone,
Im new to the forum, but not Jaguar. As a previous owner of a 95 XJ and 2017 XJS. I finally just purchased a 2018 base F-Type which I always wanted. The good news is it only has 3k miles on it. The possible bad is that it’s rear wheel drive, came with the stock 18” 10 spoke wheels and Continental summer tires (car was originally from CA). Living outside of NYC I am going to need all season tires. I have another AWD car that I can use for the bad snow days. My question is should I stick with the 18” wheels or buy a new set of 19” wheels. The ride on the F-Type is good now, but will going to the 19” be a noticeable difference in the bumps and potholes (I had to get the wheels repaired twice on the XJS)?
