First True Jaguar Sports Car in Decades Can Now Be Customized with Coventry Alloy Wheels
(PRWEB) March 31, 2014 -- Jaguar’s most legendary vehicle in its history was arguably the XKE, manufactured as a two-seat coupe and convertible from 1961 to 1975. No lesser authority than Enzo Ferrari called it the most beautiful sports car ever made. Now Jaguar has returned to the spirit of the XKE nearly four decades later with the introduction of the 2014 F Type two-seat pure sports car, also available as a coupe and convertible. To celebrate this event, Coventry Wheels for Jaguar, the performance alloy wheel brand dedicated exclusively to Jaguar motorcars, brings to market two models of F-Type Jaguar wheels that add the finishing touch and elegant customization to this exceptional new sports car.
“At Coventry our sole focus is the development of high performance light alloy wheels that are not only rigidly compatible with Jaguar engineering specifications but also enhance the unique vision and visual excitement Jaguars are famous for,” said Coventry President Terence Scheckter. “Now we’ve brought that focus to bear to enable new F Type owners to add a personal touch to their sports car,” Scheckter added.
Hornet F-Type wheels feature a masculine five-spoke design highlighted by twenty-five screws at the spoke perimeter. It is offered in two distinct finishes to enhance the F Type: Classic Chrome and Hyper Silver with a mirror-cut lip. The Whitley wheel from Coventry is a multi-spoke, multi-piece wheel that is also available in Classic Chrome and High Gloss Silver with a mirror cut lip as well as and Gloss Black, also with a mirror cut lip. Both Hornet and Whitley are available in 18”, 19” and 20” diameters to fit the F-Type, F-Type S and F-Type V8 S.
In addition to Jaguar F Type wheels, Coventry is also an industry leading purveyor Jaguar X Type wheels, Jaguar S Type wheels, Jaguar XF wheels, Jaguar XK Wheels and Jaguar XJ wheels. All Coventry wheels are engineered to fit precisely over the center hub of the vehicle hub assembly, ensuring that the wheel is hub-centric with the vehicle for a truer, better-balanced wheel/tire assembly and a vibration free ride. They are compatible with the Jaguar tire pressure monitoring system and accept the manufacturer’s center cap, typically with the Jaguar logo.
The Coventry website at coventrywheels.com provides complete technical information, including width, offset and lip size. The “Fitment” guide tab in the main navigation bar (at coventrywheels.com/fitment) takes shoppers to a data base that lets them view variations of Coventry wheels that are an assured fit for their model and year vehicle, whether it be a new F Type or another model. The guide is also the key to discovering opportunities for upsizing wheels from the OEM size and for creating staggered fitments where the rear tire/wheel combination is larger than up front, for improved traction and a more aggressive posture.
The site features photographs of the Hornet and Whitley Jaguar Wheels. The Coventry website also provides a helpful wheel configurator, which enables owners to preview each of the models and finishes of Coventry wheels on various models, colors and model year Jaguars.
Coventry Jaguar wheels are widely available at better tire stores and aftermarket wheel retailers nationwide. Shoppers can search for a Coventry dealer by zip code on the Coventry website or by phoning 1-888-766-7775.
