The fronts would be 18x8 (no 18x8.5 available).

I need to know what drop you have to recommend the correct offset and tire sizes.

Also, are you going for the hellaflush look with stretched tires and rolled fenders, or do you want normal tires on wheels that sit back from the edge of the fenders a bit and don't require fender rolling.

From Lexus SC430(18x8 et45). When the xB2 first came out and I found out the bolt pattern and hub diameter was the same, this was the wheel I wanted. Everyone says the wheel is heavy, but it's a shade under 20 pounds.
