Hey Kory i have been conteplating it.. although the exact offset is still puzzling me... im currently working on have a set of camber shims made... and if that goes according to plan i may be able to go more a aggressive if i do decide to do for my gf gonna be rediculuse offsets pushing the limits.... speaking of that i dont think you can run a 9.5 in the front...

yah your wheels look pretty flush... but i want to push the limits im having mattyrattypoo help with the sizing and you know how his wheels are so they should be sick.. on your wheels currently whats the clearence on the inside shock? from my research it shows that the xd has tc wheel fitment much like the 2nd gen xb.... im pretty sure if you go wider your gonna need to shave the rear fender maybe even a slight pull... but should be sick as PHO

Hey Kory, what you an do is measure how much clearance you got, front and rear. Measure from the shock as well as anything else thats close. Also I need to know how flush your wheels are right now. Then you can sorta see what you can fit in there.

It kinda sucks when your pushing the limits or first one to rock bad ___ wheels on an xD (like u), it looks sick but there always seems to be more room for wider or lower offset wheels. Im experiencing the same thing with my current set up. Its flush and all but I can fit wider wheels with no mods haha. Dammit! Another set of SSR's here I come LOL

just make sure you drill that last hole in the right spot. ROFLMAO yeah i THINK i F****D on my front inside passenger rim today in this crazy thunderstorm with flash floods and high winds we got right now. so it may be a sign for another set. but i did a quick check it might have been the under carriage that got scraped the hell up. so when i get home i gotta go look thoroughly.
