Xkr 20
I have researched to the point that I am truely confused. I have a 2000 XKR coupe that I am trying to buy aftermarket wheels for. I just don't know if they will fit and I have to order them online. I am going from 18" to 20".
Question #1
The bolt pattern on XKR has a 5 x 120.65 spacing. Every aftermarket wheel I have looked at is 5 x 120. Is this going to fit? If it does, is it going to cause any problems?
Question #2
I want something with some lip to it instead of the centers being flush to the barrel. What kind of offset spacing do I need in mm? The wheels I like are 15mm front and back, does that seem right?
I would really appreciate any help I can get on this one because I really need to make a change soon or I will end up buying another set of tires for the 18" rims and that is a waist.
Thanks

RE: XKR 20" wheel Fitment, PLEASE HELP!
You should be able to put a set of 20's on there with 15mm offset and 5-475 bolt pattern if they are 20x8.5
Also you can get front 20x9 with 30mm offset and 5-475 bolt and rear 20x10 with 25mm offset and 5-475 bolt. Tires are gonna be more pricey than your 18's
Hope this helps.

That is helpful.
Here are the wheels I am looking at:

I tried to find something local but thereis NOTHING available.
The seller says they will fit but I know not to take their word for it.
Thanks

Have you looked for factory jag wheels in the 20" dept? They're are just as equally priced, or are you trying to go for a real 'unique' look, such as the black powder coat?
I posted this thread awhile back, with some links for refurbed XK wheels all the way up to '07s.

I really like the Black center wheels with a polished lip. I know it is not everyone's taste but I really like the agressive / sporty look without it getting too goofy looking. I did a ton of photoshop work to figure out what I wanted and I really like these.

I like them too, and I assume your XK is black also? I once had a dark blue camaro with black rims...so I can relate to the appeal.
I just would have to be real cautious about spending all that money on rims, when there is a chance that the bolt pattern may not be correct, or offset not just right for your taste, and it makes me queasy just thinking about it. lol
When I upgraded my tires on the 'ol jeep, I was pleasantly suprised when my tire dealer let me test mount the exact size I wanted, to make sure it would turn in the wheelwell w/o a rub, and it didn't stick out of the fenderwell. When that satisfied me, I ordered the brand of tires that I needed from him. Perhaps you can do the same thing. Ask your tire dealer if you can mount a similar rim and tire combo, then if you find that correct combination, you will order the tires from him, order your rims from ebay, or elsewhere, and he can mount and do all that other fine stuff for you. It may be worth his time and effort to do that for you. Just have to find the exact size and bolt pattern that you are looking for, and hope he has a wheel in stock, no matter how godawfulugly it may be.
good luck!
