New wheels on my Jag

I still need to finish lowering it, the rear springs require a special factory tool.
These are Cache Corsicas, a wheel I designed.
I could have gone with a more lux style face, but I decided I'd rather have a production wheel I designed.
I still have to fine tune the fitment, I'm happy with the front, but I'll have to see how the rear fits once it's lowered.
I had the the whole wheel brushed, because I'm tired of chrome.
Sizes are 20x9 +15, and 20x10 +25, with 255/35-20 and 285/30-20, Falken FK's which are a mild stretch.

I also played around with replica Jaguar Stirling Moss stripes, but I think I'll take them off:

I plan on Arden/Zeemax aero for the car soon.
Thought everyone might enjoy seeing a Jag that wasn't the typical XJ sedan (although the ones on VSC are very nice. ;)  )

Love the way it looks!!! IMHO, the rear could use a lil lowering but I'd be happy for the time being.

I love this Gen. XK more than the new XK! Don't get me wrong, the new one looks FABULOUS... but it's too close to Aston Martin than I should like. Although that should be a flattering compliment, Jagz need their own identity.

This one looks like it's ready to pounce. And the lines somehow do it better for me!

GOOD work! Love the color too!!!

"...a wheel I designed." Where do you work? Looks almost like Weds Borphes but not really. Can we get close ups of the wheels?

I work at MHT.
Here's a close-up of one of the wheels.

looks like shumachers (sp?)

Not bad Yuri..they give it a more heritage look than a lux wheel would have.  Goes back to the cars' roots.  I'm sure it'll look far better when you sort out the rear springs.  Seems like most Euro cars have special tools.  My Jag and my Benz are the same way with all the special tools..haha.

Needs to go lower

Word!

255 on a 9" and 285 on a 10" = mild stretch?  not on this forum...haha

looks decent...a drop will give it a whole different appearance...

Very nice design they did look similar to the Borphes before the closeup can't wait to see it slammed...wheel designer huh? cool job...keep us updated on your progress

I wonder if you can design the old school wire wheels but with a bit more lip.. :smiley: 
 
That looks nice though.

haha, I know, my other car has 225's on a 9" and 265's on an 11".

Looks good but will look much better when slammed.  Im a fan of the brushed lip as well.  Not as common, easier to clean and it doesnt look as bad when dirty.  
 
I say remove the stripes if you already havn't.

reminds me in a way of work f2s... not a design i really like but the fit looks cool on the jag. would look 10x better dumped tho

Removed the stripes last weekend, if anyone was wondering.

im wondering when you're gonna lower it and push the wheels out more :smiley:

nice design job on the wheel. Although I'm sure the pics do them no justice, I am still partial to a polished lip. But since you went with the brushed look, I say take it one step further and  go full-on retro...in other words, paint that ride British Racing Green. Hell yea. 

Make sure to post up again after you lower the rear.

The Jag looks nice.  It seems like the rear wheels will "tuck" rather than "flush" once the car is lowered.  The stripes don't quite match the pedigree of the wheels.  

What is that M5 rolling on?  Does everyone who works there drive Ballermobiles?
