Default Pics of my 09 XF SC with New Wheels.....Finally!

Well it was worth the wait, I love my new wheels and tires! The wheels are Vossens and the tires are Continentals.

fyi I have posted 2 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus tires in 285/30ZR20 size for sale in the For Sale Forum.

Perfect!!!

You have achieved the look - classy and sporty at the same time.

Well, you know what? That was exactly my thought process when deciding which wheels to purchase. I love 5 spoke wheels but thought it a little to sporty a look for the XF as it is a sedan after all and a Jaguar to boot! When I saw these wheels I knew I had to for the first time in my life buy a non 5 spoke wheel. The 10 spokes just looked classier to me and a perfect wheel for my car.

Thank you for the compliment and I'm glad my vision translated to at least one person!

Nice to see some different wheels although not my style still looks good though

I see you have a Z06, I also own an '07 Z06 in black. Got any pics of the Z06? Looks like you have after market wheels are they 360's?

I really should give you some sort of ban.

You get me drooling over your XF, and then you clobber me with the Z06.

Couple of great looking cars you have there.

Turned out nice. I went the multi-spoke route as well based on similar reasoning.

The Vette is killer though and I'm by no means a 'Vette guy.

Very nice ! Also nice to see white cars back again. My old '80 XJ6 was Arctic White - no air con, but never too hot even after standing in the sun.

Thanks! The 10 spokes just seemed to work.

I love my Corvette, it is a car I will never sell. I have modded the exterior/interior and added performance goodies, it now sits exactly the way I envisioned when I bought it. 600+ hp from a naturally aspirated push rod V8 in a 3100+ pound car is awesome! I bought the XF SC so my daily driver would also have some get up and go.

I think it needs a set of springs to close that gap just a tad,then it will be perfect. Nice choice in wheels buddy.
