Default Wheel fitment advice sought

Apologies if this has been asked/answered.

Am looking at a set of F-type wheels to put on my X150 and need advice on whether they’d fit.

Details are:

Wheel diameter and width are identical.

Offsets on mine are 49/46 front to rear and the target ones are 50/27.

Am trying to confirm the fronts (1MM closer in) will fit without interference. One would think Jag wouldn’t put these that close, but better safe than sorry. Anybody have any guidance?

In case you want to look up the wheels, they are the 19” from a 2023 F-Type R. Mine is a 2012 basic XK.

Thanks in advance.

One millimeter is like a couple sheets of paper thick. No need to worry.

Here's a website I use for wheels and tires. Plug the stuff in and see the differences. There are a couple other sites, one less informative and one way more info, but you gotta plug in all sorts of parameters.

Rear offset difference is quite substantial (46 vs.27). Did I read that incorrectly?

I went through the same thing a little while ago looking to put F-Type Wheels on my O8 XK.
You can look up the thread if you want but my take away was that F-Type Wheels will fit very nicely on the '4.2l 07 to 09 XK's (US) but the rear offsets on the 5.0l later models are different.

Can I keep "a fitment of my imagination"?

Fronts will be fine. Rears will be 23mm out closer to the fender lip.

Taking it further for an American friend. 23mm is 2.3 centimeters, and almost an inch, which is 2.54 centimeters.
Dropping down 20 numbers on tread width, may help the situation.
