Hello,
When replacing the tyres of the rear wheels of our XKR the mechanic told me that both Double Five Wheels are radially out of line and should be replaced. Now, with the new tyres the ride is really quite awkward when running over 60 mph and I wonder where I could get a set of two wheels for the rear axle . I sent an email to DCR but have not had an answer so far. Furthermore I really do not know how this fault came about as with the last change of tyres some 20,000 miles before I did not notice this.
Who can give me some advice ? The car is a 2002 XKR.
Thanks a lot,
Matthias

Re: New wheels
There's a full set of four going for £300 on Ebay now, 4 days left. Only possible snag is they have to be collected - seller won't post/courier - and he's located in Eye, North of Ipswich.
Alternatively, depending on their misalignment, they may be able to be repaired by a (reputable!) wheel restorer, eg
