Here's Mine on 18's...Just got these rims

 

Nice wheels; 5AD S6:F 18x7.5 +45 offset?

Looks good, but it's time to drop that bad boy to make it look great!

 

They are the S6:F rims 18 x 7.5, +45 offset, u r right cionide, thanks

 

Time for springs, what are you thinking about?

 

i think im gonna leave the suspension stock, as much as i would love to lower it, im gonna wait on that, feels like the 18s slowed me down a bit, thinking of maybe and exhaust or maybe a trd cai but still worried bout rain with the cai, im sure there's no issues on the trd cai right and wondering if its worth it to me

 

Dropping it is the best mod you can do, along with wheels & tires which you've already done.

yah the stock ride is kinda bumpy, im surprised the tanabes smoothed out the ride, and doesnt lower it that much either, i just dont like slowing down over dips and all that, but i might consider when the money comes in, thanx Cionide for the link.

 

 

 

Hey Geezer what kind of exhaust is that

 

who/where makes that grill? i like it..its simple and sic!

 

It's a work in progress. A local shop is going to fab it for me. Was supposed to get it done in October, but didn't get the rear sway bar on in time. Need to do that first so there are no clearance issues. Now I have to wait until the weather warms up. Figured out the routing and mounting and the estimate is $285.

 

Thats pretty sick man really unique, I am excited to see what you end up with. keep us updated

 

 

^^haha that sun shade is hilarious!! WIN!!

 

keep um coming. as soon as I take a pic i'll post up here!

 

 

Finally got the exhaust done. The TRD swaybar redesign really held up this project. I had it done at Meineke even though I am generally skeptical of franchise operations. The local Meineke was recommended by a couple of friends . I would not call this a performance exhaust. Sound is comparable to OEM, maybe a little deeper. I was interested more in appearance than performance, and didn't want the fart-can tone. It's a conventional one pipe in-two out muffler finished off with the OEM xB exhaust tip. The pipes are spaced a little further apart than originally planned, but it still works. Total cost was $268 at Meineke, plus about fifty bucks for the extra Scion exhaust tip.

There is plenty of room under the back of the xB for this setup and you could do the same thing with a Flowmaster or something similar. There are also studs in the sheet metal behind the xB's bumper that are perfect for the rear hanger.
