[quote="my_cubicle_part2"]i have the same wheels- staggered
Hey Cubicle,
How is the overall performance affected with 19" rims and tires? When I had 19s on my older M3, 19s dramatically affected performance. Granted the XB has half as much horsepower, does it feel a lot slower now with the bigger and heavier wheels? How's the MPG?

Hey HareBrained, thanks for getting those. I was one of the ones interested in seeing this car. I would probably do a few of the details a little differently on the paint job, but overall I like it.
Thanks again for taking the time to get them.

first gear noticeably drags but once it's rolling, it's smooth. I actually watched my rpm with the stock wheels before changing it to 19"s and it is the same at 5th gear. not sure though if it's a good comparison. MPG is not too bad- I was expecting worst. So I will say I am happy with it

The scion xb at Rodland looks better in person then it does in the pics, but yes I think 30K is a hard sell. Can't wait to get my super white one from these guys later this week. And I think I may have to follow in your footsteps Michael and do the puddle lights.
