Notes |
FREE SHIPPING in U.S. When fitting wider wheels, the rear bump stops MUST be removed. Larger style wheels might not fit in the boot if you are considering a 5th wheel. This 15x5.5 wheel is one of our more popular XKE upgrade, offering a wider array of tire options, not to mention, it fills out the wheel wells, giving the car a more substantial look. Your car will stand out on the show field or at your local drive in. |
