The specification describes the configuration of the mounting points on a 2013 Jaguar XJ’s wheel hub. It indicates the number of studs or bolts used to secure the wheel to the hub, as well as the diameter of the circle formed by the centers of these fasteners. This configuration is vital for ensuring correct wheel fitment and safe vehicle operation. Using wheels with an incorrect matching configuration can lead to wheel detachment, damage to the vehicle, and potentially dangerous driving conditions.
Correctly matching the specification to the vehicle is paramount for safety and performance. Utilizing the appropriate wheel mounting setup ensures proper load distribution and minimizes stress on the wheel bearings and suspension components. Historically, variations in this specification have existed across different vehicle makes and models, necessitating careful attention to compatibility. The development and standardization of wheel mounting configurations have evolved alongside advancements in automotive engineering and manufacturing processes, contributing to improved vehicle safety and reliability.
