with Tein S.Tech Springs (thinking of going lower though)

nice wheels!! how do you like those Tein S. Tech Springs? how big of a drop did you do?i was thinking about some of those springs.

They ride like stock, maybe just a tad bit stiffer. I believe the drop is a 1.7" front/1.5" rear.

Do you have a stright profile view? I'd like to check the drop on 18's.

The xB is one of the few vehicles I'd rather see from the side over a three quarter view...

and it was getting dark fast

Looks really good man!

I'm trying to decide if 19's are worth the extra cost. I either can do 19's w/ no lowering or 18's and a drop you like you got.

Decisions, decisions.... :D

Volk Racing in japan offers GT-N's up to 20" in size!
imagine 19's on a xB!

im almost certain they will be only in 5 lug, so we just gotta get some wheel spacers/adapters that go from 4x100 to 5x100 or whatever
