Fitting wheels on a Jaguar XK

A Jaguar XK (1996–2006) uses a 5x120.65 PCD and a centre bore of 73.8 mm. Any wheel must match the vehicle's PCD exactly: there is no tolerance, unless you use a PCD adapter.

  • PCD: 5x120.65 required. See all vehicles with 5x120.65.
  • Centre bore: the wheel must have a centre bore of 73.8 mm or more. If it is larger (as with most aftermarket wheels), add a hub centric ring wheel centre bore → 73.8 mm.
  • Offset: the original is ET33. Compare your future wheel with the offset calculator (your vehicle is already selected) to see how many millimetres further in or out it will sit.
  • Fixings: thread Ecrous - 1/2 - 20 UN, tightened to 88-102 Nm. The nuts or bolts must have the same seat (conical, spherical or flat) as the wheel.
  • Tyres: original fitment is 245/50R17. For another size, check the diameter difference with the equivalence calculator (under 3 % recommended).

Frequently asked questions

What is the PCD of a Jaguar XK?

A Jaguar XK (1996–2006) has a PCD of 5x120.65: 5 studs or bolts spaced around a circle 120.65 mm in diameter.

Does a Jaguar XK need a hub centric ring?

The centre bore (hub diameter) of a Jaguar XK is 73.8 mm. A wheel with a larger centre bore is fitted with a hub centric ring that brings it down to the hub diameter. A wheel with a smaller centre bore cannot be fitted.

What offset (ET) for a Jaguar XK?

The recorded original offset is ET33. A lower ET pushes the wheel outwards, a higher ET pulls it inwards: check wheel well and caliper clearance before making any change.

What tightening torque for the wheels of a Jaguar XK?

The specified tightening torque is 88-102 Nm for Ecrous - 1/2 - 20 UN fixings. Tighten in a criss-cross pattern with a torque wrench and check the tightness again after about fifty kilometres.
