1997 Jaguar XK8 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1997 Jaguar XK8 uses a 5x120.65 bolt pattern with a 73.9mm center bore. The stock wheel measures 17x8 inches at a 33mm offset. You can upgrade to 18, 19, or 20-inch wheels in various widths, including 18x8, 18x8.5, 18x9, 19x8, 19x8.5, 19x9, 20x8.5, and 20x9, all while maintaining that same offset range that keeps your ride safe and proportionate.
Only wheels with a 5x120.65 bolt pattern will fit your XK8. Since your wheels are hub-centric, use hub-centric rings if you choose a wheel with a larger center bore than 73.9mm to ensure proper centering. Stepping up in width or running a more aggressive offset can lead to fender or suspension contact, so confirm your choice before ordering if you're pushing the limits of fitment.
Every wheel we sell for your XK8 is verified to bolt on correctly and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. American Racing, US Mag 1PC, Performance Replicas, Vision, E5 Wheels, WELD Performance, Forgestar, and Ridler all have options in stock and ready to ship.
