I'm looking for cool 17" chrome 5 spoke wheels to replace the OEM 7 spoke. Any ideas out there with 63.4 mm center bore and 40mm offset so they go on with no adapters etc. I think some of the LS and Jag wheels work but unsure.

Any wheel from Jaguar S-Type or Lincoln LS will fit and have correct offset geometry. That includes 17 and 18 inch wheels. My car has Jaguar S-Type R "Zeus" wheels. Front 18x8.0 and rear 18x9.5.

# 59! They look great. After some more research, I apparently missed a good deal on those Jag S-Type R Zeus wheels at $250 each...
 
I purchased a set of five spoke Vision wheels for 2002 they look great. I will run these until originals are rechromed. I did a little research to get correct offset. They recommend 35 to 45 mm offset, I used a 38mm stock 17 inch wheel. They were reasonable price, less than 500.00 for all four.
 
That $250 each price included the shipping. Got any pics, there, Rocket?
