Using Jaguar rims on Ford

I have a set of Jaguar rims with approximately 4 3/4" bolt pattern.
I was hoping to use them on a vehicle with 4 1/2" bolt pattern using an adapter.
What I did not know was that the bolt holes on the Jaguar are about 11/16" approximately.
Is there an adapter available so that I can use these rims?
What was the lug bolt sizes of the jaguar that used these?
(XJ, XJ5, Xj6, XJ12 said the Ebay ad where I bought these.)
Was there a special lugnut for these?
I really like these rims, How can I use them?
Thank you for any help you can provide.
Paul

re: Using Jaguar rims on Ford

Jags have a very unusual offset so before you invest in adapters check to see if anything will clear.

re: Using Jaguar rims on Ford

I would advise you not to take your business to Stockton Wheel. I have been waiting almost THREE Months for a set of 15 inch Steel Smoothies. Every time I call them, (Yes I have to call them even though they’ve asked for my numbers about three times so they can “keep me updated”) they tell me they’ll be done in a couple of days, and they will call when done……... Well like I said early it’s been just about three months now, and still nothing. Again I’d would say Stay away from Stockton Wheel, there are plenty of other wheel shops that could only be more helpful and reliable. Just my 2 cents.
