This weekend I upgraded my suspension on my 2005 S-type base model 4.2.
Bilstein B4 Sport Shocks OE replacements, H&R Sport Springs, 18" rims off of a 2010 XF, Bridgestone Tires size 245/40 R18 .
So far it drives like a charm. No rubbing and not too hard. Stable around corners.

I got mine from a Craigslist deal. $300 for the set. The owner of the XF upgraded to 22" rims. You can find some good deals on Ebay as well.

I just kept an eye out for good deals on Craigslist. Once in a while you find someone up grading their car and just want to get rid of their stock wheels.

Does anyone know if there is a way to tell if these wheels would fit our cars?
2007 Jaguar XJ8 Aluminum Alloy Wheel, Rim 18x8 - 59801
The width (8") , bolt pattern (5x108), and offset (49mm) seem to be right?
They appear to be readily available, unlike 18" S-Type wheels or 18" XF wheels.
