It does not take much to install a 9.5 on the xb guys.

9.5" +20 to +17 will fit. Just a little rolling and some camber will enable you to lower it at least 3.5"-4".

maybe in the back 9.5 is easy. 9 and less in the back is cash. 9 in the fronts though, that scares me a little and is holding me back on wheel choice a tad.

On thing I would keep in consideration is the size of the wheel, the width is cool but there is big difference between 16x9 and 18x9 with same offset, just my 2 cent !!!

9.5 is a pretty tight squeeze! There is about a 2-3 mm gap between the wheel and rear control arm. There is a little bump that protrudes outward which is 2-3 mm from the wheel.
