I have done a lot of changes to this car in less than the year that I've owned it and I have many custom plans for it in the future. I will get a few pictures together soon, but for now this is the only one I will post.

I love this car!

 

Hi the classic shape of the xj is spot on not sure on your wheels and the stripes on the body but that's just personal preference do you not have side vents on your front wings over there would be nice to see pictures and a write up as you do the different mods to your car and you may give others ideas too

 

The tires are made from Vogue and are considered the most luxurious tire down here so I felt it was fit for this Jaguar. The pinstripes were custom made to match the Vogues and I put it on to give it a more sporty look, since it is an XJR. The stripes are also removable if I decide to change out the rims later in the future.

I will definitely have a detailed write up as soon as I gather all my before and after pictures for yall!

 

Close up on rim. I got the chrome rims sprayed with a tint of black chrome on the insides of spokes to match the cars paint and give it a 2-tone look! Also got the center cap for rim made with the Jaguar logo!

 

Can you flip the tires to have the yellow stripe on the inside? The wheels look better than the stock ones on my XJR.

 

I dont know where yall are from but i am in Texas. Have yall never seen Vogue tires? They come in just like this with the yellow and white stripes. They are known all over the country as the most classy tires out and come stock on very expensive cars like some Cadillacs with the upgraded package. They cost for tires is about $1500 and are also made for performance!

 

I am in Texas, and have never noticed the Vogue tires. But if they make you happy, then that is what is important.
My XJR came with a fairly new set of Carrera tires. Looking them up, they are Chinese maypops. But they look nicer than the Pirelli Scorpion Verde on my A8. For safety reasons the Carrera's are coming off in the next few thousand miles.

 

Not my taste but you seems to be happy with it and that's what counts. To each his own!

Guus

 

Personally I think the xjr is meant to look sedate but have a real punch under the bonnet that's what I think when i look at mine
