hello i need to hear from people who have put wire wheels on there xb or know people who have. im gonna get 15x7 100 spoke front wheel drive for my xb. but i heard that some scions had problems with them hiting the breaks and some had no problems. so i need to hear from people that have them to find out if they had any problems and what the did to fix it if any. PLEASE GET BACK TO ME, i really wanna order these rims this week. IM EXCITED TO GET THEM.

 

would not recomend wire wheels for a daily driver in general. Especially the cheaper end of the scale. On a daily driver the nipples began to rust to to slight movements chipping away at the chrome.

 

wire whels are ___....unless they're carbon fiber wires.

 

yeah wire wheels are definately NOT my style but i could see nice black wires with chrome/polished lip.

the most important thing with any wheel fitment is offset. look for some 20-30 offset wheels and you should be good.

if offset is not listed by seller or manufacturer. CALL they do have the info.

 

 

this was at a show my crew and i did....



you can see that they are wire wheels from the lil pic

 

The convertible xb in the background is pretty hot.



Scionara_creep: you think you're somekind of lowrider or what? What would petite cheech say?

 

ha ha . that's an inset pic not a xb vert. lol. it's the same car!

 

lmfao, i hate when peeps dont ready "you can see that they are wire wheels from the lil pic" hahhaa

 

still waiting to hear from someone that has had them on there car or has a friend that has.

 

ok don;t take word on things. just look for the offset of the wheel.

 

Real knock-offs take alot of work. They have to be tightened everytime you buy gas, or you run them risk of the spinner coming lose and falling off(happened to a friend). You also have to remember that you have to use a hammer to tighten them. They make some direct bolt wires, but they don't look near as good.

I am not saying the would look good or bad. But they are not a bolt on and forget thing.

 

hahaha...damn didn't even notice it was an insert. looks like a background car at first glance. I hate it when people don't read the post.

 

That is very cool. Props to the owner.
