Brake time ?

Brake time ?
Almost 35,000 km or 20,000 miles on my XB . When did anyone do their first brake job . My 19's must be hard on the front pads . If and when I need them maybe I'll go for Stop Tech pads. Heard that the TRD are junk .

I just added new rotors and pads from R1 concepts. The econo cross drilled and slotted and then the posi quiet pads. I was tempted to go with stop tech but wanted to save a few bucks. All works great now. The previous owner put the wrong pads on and they gouged the stock rotors. How can you not know that semi-metallic pad aren't made for he XB...lol

You'd be surprised at all the thumbs up I have received for running them. I had them on my my white Xb and now they are on my red, which I think looks better cause they pop better with the red paint.

Yeah guy, I know what adaptors are, but it is very difficult to find 5x112 to 5x100 adaptors, so i figured it would be the other way around too, 5x114 to 5x112. I haven't seen any of the 12 to 10 ones so that's why I said that. I still run my saw blades on my GTI. I think they look good. Post a good side picture of your xB. I'm sure it looks pretty good. It is quite a fitting wheel for the xB2.

Yeah, there is a company in Nevada that will make basically any adapter you need, that's where I got my front ones, the rear where from another place online and they have a huge catalog of available adapters too. Finding the 5x114 - 5x112 was actually easy.
Here is a pic from the beach last week.

Yeah that looks really really good. The bubbliness of the xB2 really goes with the round bubbliness of the sawblades. But I don't feel good about it because it's a rip off of VW style. xB2's rip off Lexus's, so be it, but a GTI... there's nothing else like it and that's the only place they belong.
