Default Will 13s fit?

I'm picking up my xB this saturday and I realize this isnt what most of you guys are all about but I've got a brand new set of old school 13s that I might rock if they'll fit. From what i understand, you can fit 13s on the ECHO and im pretty sure the scion has the same brake setup. Let me know. Thanks

A very nice old skool wheels but to make them work you are going to have to get rid of that fender gap and that's going to at least take a 2.5" drop.

Go for it because it's going to look pimp when you pull it off.

yeah thats probobly true. the roads in jersey/new york SUCK. i lived in brooklyn for a few years and i can testify.

which really sucks since those wheels need a fat drop to pull it off.

he's got the rihgt Idea with 195\70\13 it will ride nice with all that sidewall. Those are the rims I wanted but in 15. I was going to run 205\50\15 for a jdm look. Bill

Yeap. They weren't welcomed as affectionately over there I posted over there before I pulled the trigger on the xB.

those are Enkei 92's they were sold back in the early 90's. my cousin had those on his 91 Cekica GTS. I think they did come in 15's & 17's. I'm pretty sure I know a place that still carry them or can still get them.
