I've got a 2013 XFR Speed Pack all blacked out. It came with gray Draco wheels which look pretty good. But I'd like to go glass back.
I'd like slightly wider wheels that stick out a little more without rubbing anything of course. Has anyone looked into any 9.5" front and 10" back rims correct offset?
It's one things that's bugs me about the "look" of the car is how far the wheels are in the wheel wells. There has to be a way to get an additional inch or two without causing an issue.
On my XFR I have 15mm front & 20mm rear spacers which improve the look. Here's a link for you;https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...rs-xfr-242359/
I've been trying to source a set of new alloys myself for my XFR, probably 9x20 front & 10 or 10.5x20 rear, It's a nightmare trying to find the right combo though.

Thanks. I've been thinking about spacers. And I've talked to a wheel repair company that also said they can paint my Dracos gloss black. That would be the cheapest way to go. I'd rather go wider aftermarket though but finding the correct size and offset....
Why do you want the wheels to be wider? What's the effect you're looking to create?
As you say, width and offset both need to go together. Wider wheels may not 'poke' any further unless the offset is right for that. And it's not an easy combo to find aftermarket
Most people here have gone the spacer route - allows you to choose exactly how much poke you want to bring out the wheels. And a lot cheaper than new wheels and new tires!
If you are looking aftermarket I found the Rohanna RF2 in 20inch great on mine. 9inch fronts and 10inch rears. Can look up offsets if you're interested.
Front is 20x 9" wide. 40mm offset
Rear is 20x 10" wide. 42mm offset
5x108 bolt pattern
Hub bore is 73.1 so I needed a hub centric ring adaptor to reduce it to the 63.4 of the Jag wheel hub.
the OEM Selena's were 8.5 front and 9.5 rear (49/66 offset). So by my calcs the front wheel face sits 15mm further out. The rear wheel face sits 30mm further out. (Pls check that!!)
Would send photos but the Selena's are back on the car with winter tires at the moment and I can't seem to find a good photo
I've had them for nearly 6 years now and am v happy with them

The main thing is I want to go with black rims. Since I'm either looking at painting or replacing my Dracos to get black rims, I can look to killing two birds with one stone and get rims that fill the wheel wells better if I go that route.

Great. Good luck
FWIW if I were you I'd get the dracos sprayed / powder coated gloss black, add spacers 15-20mm and go with that. Think you will get all the look at a fraction of the price. I resprayed my oem wheels myself and they came out well
But if you want a new style / look (or old ones are bent or chewed up) then rohana is great. But you're prob $2k out of pocket all-in
