Default 16" Winter Rims on XJR?
I have a set of brand new 16" Michelin X-ice tires that I would like to use on my 1999 Jaguar XJR.

Will 16" wheels fit?

Not on the front. Unless maybe if they're steel wheels.

I have a 2001 VDP S/C equipped with the larger brakes that are on the XJR and 17" wheels are required to clear the front calipers
