Thanks Ikon. I really like the new 20" wheels too. I went from 18" to 20" wheels, and so far, I've found very little difference in terms of road noise. In fact, I feel the 20" actually feeling much smoother. However, that may be due in fact that the tires are still brand new compared to the original 4 year old Continentals.

I'm seriously considering trading in my XJ8 for this XJR ! While I'm very happy with my XJ8, this white XJR is very tempting..... Price for this 08 XJR is reasonable too ($29,000 Canadian), mileage 64.000km, no accidents... What do you think guys ?

Hi Guys, the weather was nice today. So I decided to take and share some pics of my XJ8 which I made some upgrades with over this past summer. These were the upgrades done in order over a period of 5 months
1- Windows tinted 35% all around
2- New updated front grille found on all X358
3- Personalized X350 license plate
4- Four new Continental DWS 255/35/20 tires
5- Four new Jaguar Callisto 20' rims with new growler wheel caps
6- Custom umbrella handle with Jaguar walnut gear shift knob
I've included before and after pics of the car. Hope you enjoy the pics![Smile](https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)
