Spiral, skinny tires were the norm back in 1961 when the XKE made its debut. Later models came with larger tires. Check out the Racing tires on this 1961 Indy car.

You're young, so it doesn't surprise me that you find the Jags styling awkward.
When I was your age, I didn't think the 1925 Model T was that hot either.
