Default Hello

Just thought I'd say hello. My wife and I own a Solar Yellow RS 2.0 xB... So I guess I'm new to the SL forums.

We are actually thinking of trading our xB for a "normal" colored one. My wife doesn't like the attention it gets anymore. And I guess I can understand that. We've had it about a year now. We love the thing, but I guess we should have gotten a normal color to begin with.

If we end up keeping the xB... I want to lower the thing. I was thinking about the TRD springs. What do you guys think? I don't want the ride to be any more rough. What about the TRD struts? Yes, I KNOW how to search... but I'd rather hear from chicago people who know about the chicago roads.

there are plenty of options out there when it comes to lowering your xB. how much of a drop do you want to go with? some springs out there will actually give you a better than stock ride.

as stated, contact fujiz -- he'll help you out

and welcome...

I want a decent drop, nothing crazy... I don't want to have to get extra parts for a "custom" alignment. I don't want rubbing I don't want to do any fender rolling, etc. I have a set of 17x7.5s with 205/40/17s iirc sitting in my garage. I'd be wanting to throw those on after lowering it.

Hows it going!
If your looking for a medium drop, I say TEINs.
I you want a drastic drop I would go with TANABE.
Regardless of what springs you use, your going to feel the road a little more
with the low profile tires!
Also welcome.
