If I would have been buying wheels again for my LS, they would be these:

Good taste, those would be the ones I would have gotten for the X/S-type if I bought one.
 
those are nice, i wonder what the offset is on the rears, 9.5inches is pretty wide for the LS. would like nice w/ the staggered look
 
those look pretty classy. I know 9.5 is wide but wasnt there someone on here a while back(2 years or so) that put 9.5-10" on the back of their LS? I remember seeing the picture but cant find the post anywhere. It looked pretty mean.

Would they fit the LS with the offset?
Yes they would fit, as long as you order them for the Jag S-Type.

I personally wouldn't put 20's on an LS but there is room under the rear for a 20x9.5" wheel. I've also seen similar wheels on an LS and it was too over powering for my taste, but it can be done.

It's the front wheels that cause clearance problems when you go wider than 8.5". But there is plenty of room out back.
 
So I can buy those rims and slap them on? does anyone have pics or the ability to photoshop these? if so.. i might jump on them soon
 
They have these same wheels in 19s too on ebay. They are also wider in the back.
 
Jaguar XJR wheels look great but they might be little bit too wide for the front. I have seen em on a regular S-type though.. They looked fine. Let me find the picture.

If they will fit the S-Type why will they not fit the LS?
 
They will, but the chance of touching the fender is more than on a 20x8.5 wheel. Unless of course you use a 245/35/20 tire, but it might look a little funny on a 9" wide wheel. 255/35/20s usually bend the fender at sharp turn in very easy, you know when there is a deep and you turn in fast. I have seen a lot of LSs that have that problem, especially with 255/35/20 tires.

In the picture with the S-type, they fit, but we don't know if they rub.

This is the description of the wheels printed in the the original Ebay listing.

"THE FINISH IS A CUSTOM PLATINUM SILVER CENTERS WITH A CUSTOM CHROME LIP."

If you buy them for me I'll definitely put them on my LS! :D
