In 1989 Jaguar may have been using same bolt pattern as Chevrolet and some other GM types. Check bolt pattern 1st, then chech offset. Jags tend to be high positive offset. I have a 2004 XJ8 VDP and the wheel bolt pattern is that of a Ford Taurus. Guess what kind of wheels I'm shopping for.

If you have the factory tire size of 26.6x8.9/16 your new size will be 225/60/16

Hi. You would select Language for English. You need to scroll and select UNITS. From there you can choose between US, Metric and Imperial.

My dodge journey 2015 change to miles from km I would like to change it back

Hey, all you need to do is change your settings from imperial to metric or metric to imperial.
Your owners manual will have the exact steps on how to perform that, be sure to give that a good read if you haven't yet about 15 minutes and you'll learn a whole lot of cool features you might not have known about your car yet.

How to find diffrent unit standerds relating to boilermaking

The basic principle is that it would use the customary or legal standard units for the particular country.

For instance in the US, although the metric system is legal, the American imperial (modified British) system is still used. Hence boilermaking specs and drawings would usually be in inches, feet, US ounces and pounds etc.

In Australia it has all gone metric long since, and units are in metres, mm, grams and kilograms etc. Boilermaking as a trade is nearly dead, but would be metric.

In the UK all packaging and food sales must be in metric units, but otherwise metrication is self-regulating and more or less voluntary. Because of the vast amount of equipment and tooling which has still imperial units inherent in it, much manufacturing there still uses imperial units. Boilermakers could see either system.

How do I change from Km to Miles on the odometer for a Rav 4 (2006)?

Disconnect the battery for 90 seconds, then unplugged the cluster.. Then connect the battery with no cluster.. HVAC display changed to metric...

Re-connected the cluster again, display changes to imperial...

The cluster is what dictates what is displayed. It is metric by-default but a US imperial instrument cluster overrides that.
