In case you haven't already used it, this calculator works very well for comparing different tire size, wheel size and offsets. Custom rims, wheel tire packages For the summer I run Jaguar Dynamics off of a mid-2000's XJ. They are 18x8's with a 49mm offset and I'm running 245/45-18's. This...

Replaced the rear upper control arms. The outer bushings were still in good shape, but the inner bushings on both the driver and passenger side arms were completely shot.

I felt the same way, but they grew on me. I eventually went with a set of 18x8 Dynamics from an XJ and am very happy with them. Wheel choice is a personal preference only you can predict. Jaguar Wheels Fitment Database

That is the factory deck lid spoiler for an '04-'05 LSE. The '06 LS got all the outside appearance items that the '04-'05 LSE had except for the deck lid spoiler, all-red taillamps and the 7-spoke chrome wheels which were unique to the LSE. BTW, the 7-spoke LSE wheels where originally used on...

The shorter depth of the black plastic cap could just be a generational thing (newer design). I say this because when I replaced my bearing with the Timken HA590213, the depth, style of the casting, and overall appearance was virtually indistinguishable to the original bearing that was in my car.

Before and after on the brake upgrade with the original wheel for comparison.

New upper control arm, knuckle, wheel bearing and finally got around to doing the S-Type Sport brake upgrade.

When doing the parts searching for my car, and knowing that Jag changed the S-Type suspension in 2003, I only researched the 2000-2002 S-Type and from what found there were only two suspension variants. Standard suspension and the optional CATS electronically adaptive suspension. AFAIK, the...

S-Types with the CATS system will have green painted Bilsteins, standard non-CATS suspensions had black painted Bilsteins.

This is correct I had a broken rear coil and this is exactly what I did as well. I sourced my rear springs from a used S-Type that was a California car and the assembly looked very clean (near mint to this Michigan native) with the only visible issue being the bottom shock bushings were...

That's a good point which I'm sure it is a major contributor to the more compliant ride now. I have a set of Eibach's & Koni's on my '85 XR-7 and the results were very similar over the original setup. Better ride, but no loss in handling. I completely agree. Body lean on initial turn in is...

I installed front and rear springs spec'd for a Jag S-type 4.0L. I went with the B4's all the way around and I chose them for the same reasons that 04_Sport_LS did. Most of my roads that I travel are crappy and full of poorly patched potholes. In my opinion with the B4's & Jag springs, the car...

Those appear to be 18"x8" Triton's; originally available on 2005-2008 S-Types.

Do you think that if you were to grind/sand the inside of the square edge so to make it more tapered that it would allow it to fit more flush? Agreed. They look very nice on there. :cool:

It's was a treasure hunt. :D They have them buried in the wrong area. Go to the steering section and they are about half way down under the "Daily Driver" section.

For the Mevotech's, Rock Auto is another option. I just received two of the Mevotech units from them at $39.79 each.

I just had to replace my two subs due to the rotted out foam surrounds that Joe has described. The failed foam was the cause of my "buzzing" as well. If you have the THX system, you can ignore most of what the manual tells you about removing the parcel shelf, it's not necessary. Just remove...

Thanks. Raybestos RPT series coated rotors, #66840FZN. I purchased them from Rock Auto.

New pads, rotors, pins & boots for the rear. Ended up also painting the the calipers and brackets and took a wire brush to the splash shields because I couldn't bear to look at those old tarnished parts contrasting against the new rotors. o_O
