Have you checked Tire Rack?

If you search for what will fit a 2007 Camry you will find the wheels that fit the 2008 xB. Hopefully Tire Rack will get their site updated soon to actually have the 08 xB so you can see what they would look like.

https://www.tirerack.com/cart/SelectShipping.jsp
For $477.84 plus the cost of swapping your current tires onto them to you could have these for example.

No sure if that is within your Spousal Unit Approval Range but just over $500 total is a pretty good price for some nice wheels.

i don't see how this was dumb... i love the 07 Si rims remind me of the M35 rims...

just wish they were 18-20"... so unfortunately they won't look as hot as they do in this picture (rims i replaced are 19s minimum... look like 20s)

Hi, I'm the guy that built the car pictured above, let me see if I can help ya out a bit.

The civic rims look nice, but may be a bit too small looking for the size of the new xB, plus the offset and bolt pattern I believe are the whrong size for fitment.

If you are able tomount them on, you will see that they will be sunken in to the fender of the car.

My want to look for a rim that's 35+mm offest and 5x114 bolt pattern. Best ofluck and hope that helped a bit, congrats on the new ride. Peace

thanks for your input. the main reason i was looking at the civic wheels is that they are the correct 5x 114.3 bolt pattern, my wife and i both like the look of the wheels, and as a bonus if i can find them with tires,, they are already the correct 215/45/17. if they do seem to be sunken into the wheelwells, i could always throw on some spacers. i do kinda like the dish to the wheels though

actually, it isn't a black eye, it is like some sort of little infection or whatever, and my eyelid swelled up and after putting some sort of ointment in my eye to kill the infection under the eyelid, i woke up with it being really blood shot. but instead of saying all that and sounding kinda gross, i just say my gf beat me up.

right....my wife takes care of all of our bills, and she works at the bank that our account is at. she has good reasons though, as we recently bought a house, and have plenty of other bills that take prescendence over mods at this time..besides, ive wasted enough money on my pick-up..
