Default New Member Intro - JMCrate

Hey there Jaguar Forums!
I'm Jon Crate in the Atlanta Area. About 18 months ago I bought a 2012 XFR with 33k miles and have run it up to 56k. I love this beast more every day!

I do have a question. I bought it with CHROME 20" OEM Nevis wheels, but now one is cracked, one is bent (still driving it), so I go to my local Jag dealer (Hennessy in Atlanta) to buy a couple replacement wheels and they INSIST Jaguar never sold this car with chrome wheels and sold me two silver metallic painted Nevis 20s (Which I have not put on).

Can anyone confirm/prove if this car did, or did not come from the factory with Jaguar CHROME Nevis wheels?
Thank you,
Jon

Welcome to the forums Jon,

According to JEPC (Jaguar Electronic Parts Catalogue) the 20 inch Nevis is silver and not available in chrome finish. Also marque expert Nigel Thorley doesn't list chrome as an option for the XF in his book Jaguar - All the Cars. However, it could have been a dealer upgrade. I'm not a usually a fan of chrome wheels but they do go well with the red bodywork.
