Wheel Confusion

[simon291971449]

Hi. Didn't quite know where to put this post, so opted for "Suspension".

I have a 91 Facelift 4.0 Coupe, and it has 16" Jaguar Sport 11 hole alloys (8Jx16x19 (AH) SPC1204). I assume the 19 refers to offset and the SPC1204 is the part number.

I don't know if these were designed for the XJS or whether they were originally on a different Jaguar. I know the XJ40 XJR had something that look very like these.

However, I recently noticed , when getting the wheels refurbed, that I have an odd wheel. I think it's one of the 11 hole alloys fitted to later Facelifts (Celebrations?) and the main difference from the other three is that instead of having a completely dished centre, it has a slightly protruding central part where the centre cap goes. Can't believe I hadn't noticed this before!

All four wheels are wearing Falken 225 55 R16 tyres.

So I have set about finding a single Jaguar Sport alloy to complete my set. This is where my confusion starts.

I have found a single wheel on eBay which looks like exactly what I'm looking for, but the seller has provided a photo of the spec on the inner wheel rim and it is different from my existing three wheels. It is 8Jx16x33, and has a part number SPC1137. A bit of research suggests this is a rear wheel from an XJRS and with 33 offset, is not what I'm looking for. Am I correct?

My main question is this. Can anyone help me identify the three wheels I already have? Are they off an early 90s XJ40 XJR, or off a limited edition XJS? This will help me in looking for a fourth alloy to complete the set.

Hope all this makes sense.

Many thanks

Simon,

Your SPC 1204 wheels are the 19mm offset front wheels off a facelift XJR-S.

But I don't recognise that SPC1137. It's not the part number of the rear wheel for a pre-facelift XJR-S, a facelift XJR-S, or an XJ40 XJR. In fact, if I haven't seen the number stamped in the rim, I'd have assumed it was an error.

So you need a facelift XJR-S front wheel (SPC1204) or else find 2 x 33mm offset facelift XJR-S rear wheels to match (SPC1198)

Cheers

This ad suggests the SPC1137 is from a Jaguarsport XJR XJ40

I've seen that advert. But Jaguar quote the Speedline 33mm offset for the XJ40 XJR as SPC 1007. And the JaguarSport 33mm offset for the XJ40 XJR as SPC 1198.

So, a bit confusing.
