Green Jaguar

Whatup guys this is my buddies Jag its got alot of potential I showed him some of J-Lines stuff and he's diggin it.He's done a few things like shaved it and added some 20" BBS wheels not a bad start check it out...

sorry no front pic I had a customer when he left...oh well back to work I guess

Not feeling those wheels at all.  The style doesn't seem to match and certainly isn't VIP.  Of course the car is nice and has potential..just the wheels are not working.

:pat: i'm with elpresidente

Almost the worst wheels to get in a 20". Tell your buddy to sell those wheels, go back to stock, and then turn around and get some new ones. potential is yes, but he should have kept the emblems! Did he have a hood mascot?

lol...I love how you guys don't hold back and keep it real Im gonna show this to my boy to see his reaction because he loves his wheels.The car didnt have the actual cat on the hood Caoboy just the flat emblem.Thanx for being so blunt hopefully we can get him to do this thing right...somebody do a quick chop that I can show him...

Can i join in? They are a nice style of wheel in 17-18, on Subies and Lancers... But they straight up look wierd in 20... Its a racer wheel, in a bling bling size...

I don't really mind it at all. The wheel design is not that bad, prob a bit too big like other people said, but it is very hard to take away from the beauty that is the XJ.

For once in a blue moon I agree with you :hsughwerdv7:

Those wheels just arent working with the cars lines at all, Beautiful ride otherwise.

if he likes the wheels, that's all that truly matters.

attempting to have a vip style flair with that car and those wheels, on the other hand, is a different story.

:biggthumpup:

hard to say if the rims will work or not until the car is sittin on the ground. or severely tucked. give the car a chance wheel police!!!!

I personally think 20 is too big on that chassis I think people will agree

I'm definitely glad the wheels arent 20" ghetto ryder chromies

I think the car should have kept the hood ornament (I think only the xjrs didnt have one)

I hope he keeps working on it I love the xj's just not the maintainance

XJR's look hot with one though:

And maintenance isn't too bad depending on the model you get.  I stay away from the V8's personally. Although it looks marginally better lowered:

 19" is the way to go, but 20's will work..and maybe something like this:

I still love Dukes.

oh yeah, lock smice! they sure got some pretty crazy offsets n width

Nice chop Ive got to show this to him...

ack. tell him lose the wheels! 20's look weird on xj's. 19's would be more than enough and you could retain some tire at least. whyd he put a flat badge on?!? just wondering..cause the huge leaping jaguar was probably one of the favorite things of my jag. do you have a pic of a full frontal shot?  like everyone says his car has a load of potential. i love all xj's they are just so sleek and long. show him [url]www.jaguarxp.com[/url] it has all the goodies (bodykits,wheels,grilles,exhausts everything EURO)

[QUOTE=jaynick808;82792] show him [url]www.jaguarxp.com[/url] it has all the goodies (bodykits,wheels,grilles,exhausts everything EURO)[/QUOTE] Actually for XJ's they don't have all that much.  They do have a few good parts though.

Yah, I have a 96' X300 Vanden Plas XJ.  I'll check my hard drive for other pics I've got of other XJ's.  Tell him to keep an eye on my blog too which I started and will be updating regularly with pics and info.  It's still in its' training wheel stages though..haha.  Find it here:
