it would cost more than the car to fit them.

ive done plenty of custom work too.

and it would involve such a high level of metal work, i dont even wanna think about it

I am totally for this and would love to see it! I do however see alot of problems just like everyone else.

Power, Possability, Reasonability.....

Is it going to be worth it? Hell I would love to see it but you might need to lift the xb about 4"s to do it!

Hopefully no mechanical or automotive engineers have read this thread yet. I think they would cringe with fear! ( 'o')

This is going to cost TOO MUCH MONEY! Not only are you looking at extensive body & suspension modifications, but you're also looking at axles, motor, transmission, cooling, brakes, & whatnot. It's basically ridiculous, unless you have the money to blow like that.

Chances are that you would have to 4x4 that thing before getting those wheels to fit in the box.

Stock tires are only 24.5" tall. I'm guessing 20's are about 26, with a 35 series tire. 28's? Wow.

lol Donkey "King". I have no idea how much this would involve. But maybe an insane custom wide body kit would help? Yes? probably? maybe? Defiantly not?
