Official XJ ( X350 & X358 ) Picture Thread
#21
yeah, I'm tying to think of future options for my next set of tires. I have 20" sepangs now and like the look, but I think I'd prefer the ride of some 19"s. I also want to go wider though. I'd also like to keep same size though front and rear for rotation purposes. Was there any fitment issues with the front tires? Beavis, you said you had to trim the inner arch, how close was the outer wheel arch to the wheel/tire?

@Muddybear - loads of space toward the outer wheel arch. Over on the uk forum several of the chaps have larger tyres while protecting the rolling circumference. Suggest you take a look, full of good stuff.
Can I get 295's under the back of the XJR?

Also, I haven't seen much talk of people putting wider tires in the front. Do you know of anyone running wider front tires? Have you measured available space in the front? I'd like to keep the front and rear the same

Also, does anybody know how wide of a tire you can run on the front?

Thanks for clarifying. Have you ever tried putting the wheels with the 285's on the front to see how they'd clear. If it can fit, then I think I'd rather have all 4 wheels be 285's.

Xj (x350)
Here is my XJ6 (X350) 3 litre V6 Sovereign in pearlescent jaguar racing green with 20" sepang alloys - Purchased the car in December 2013 and have since added a mesh grill. Future upgrade will be fitment of U.S spec font & rear side marker lights.
Over the past week or so a slight vibration was creeping in to the cabin via the steering wheel and seat so I had all 4 wheels re-balanced and filled with nitrogen - problem solved - nice and smooth again.
