Xj6 wheels.

I have recently purchased an xj350 2.7 d, it has 20 inch low profiles on. These look great but with the state of the roads I have had 2 damaged rims, requiring welding. I am trying to decide on 18 or 19 inch wheels now. Could anyone please give any advice. Many thanks.

18-inch with the higher profile sidewall tyre will offer maximum protection and comfort - if that is what you are after. Presumably on a diesel you will not have the premium brakes, which subsequently require a larger diameter wheel to clear the front calliper.

Usually a good selection of original fit wheels for sale on the JEC Classifieds website, although a quick check shows nothing in 18" or 19" at the moment.

Cheers, was looking at 18 i think, not sure about brakes? Thank you.

I was going to say the same as Jim but was preparing dinner. Worth checking your brakes before any decisions on wheels i reckon.

Good point, cheers, love the look but costing fortune on rims. Hopefully ride stay as good.
