Bursting onto the scene at the 1948 London Motor Show, the Jaguar XK120 was initially intended merely as a low-volume showcase for William Lyons' revolutionary new 3.4-liter dual-overhead-cam inline-six engine. Its jaw-dropping, swooping curves and promise of unparalleled performance created such an absolute frenzy that Jaguar was forced to rush it into full-scale production.
Living up to its name, the XK120 shattered records to become the world's fastest production car at the time, effortlessly surpassing 120 mph and securing legendary status on both the street and the racetrack. By the time its historic run ended in 1954, Jaguar had built exactly 12,055 units across roadster, drophead coupe, and fixed-head coupe body styles. Today, the XK120 is celebrated as the spark that ignited post-war British motorsport dominance that looks absolutely brilliant rolling on a gleaming set of classic wire wheels.
Don't settle for wire wheels offered by other brands. The design and look of these wheels are directly from the molds and designs of the original Dunlop wire wheels. Never settle for "close enough". British cars deserve British Wire Wheels.
