Hi - first post. I was wondering if these XKR wheels would be a direct fit on a 05 Vanden Plas with no issues?
Factory Jaguar 19" wheels - I think the style is "Jupiter" from a 2009 XKR
Tire size is:
245 /40 ZR 19 front![](http://www.flickr.com/photos/tardlike/5112295155/)
275 /35 ZR 19" rear
Here's a photo.
Thanks !!

How wide are the wheels themselves? (front and rear)
Do you know the offsets?
I had some issues trying to fit late model XK wheels to my 05 XJ.. Even though both were same style (Sepangs). Due to offset, I had to find a set that came specifically off an XJ..
You may want to try calling a place that deal in oem wheels. (Detroit wheel and tire, Finishline wheels, Midwest wheel and tire, etc..) They should be able to tell you fairly easily.

Did you find a good answer to this? Have seen comments about ABS concerns, but with the staggered tire size the difference in rolling circumference is around 0.5%. Would ABS even notice this small difference. I am looking to do similar install and would also like to ensure there are no issues and find someone who has actually done it. Thanks.

I installed those exact wheels on my 2005 XJ8L. Absolutely no issues. Tolerances are extremely close to the rear fender when suspension is compressed but no rubbing, braking or other issues. And they look incredible. Prepare for endless complements...

I loved the stance and wider rear wheels gave it an aggressive appearance. There would likely be rubbing issues upfront with spacers.

04XJ8 their Hot! I like them. I'll do mine this summer. I'm glad to know that there is no fitment issues.
