Kevin, You should get the goldlines for your silver box and then put these on and test drive the car, that way you know exactly what you should get for your lava !!! Sean

Dude go with a 215/35/18. That's what igot. 40's will rub. Add a 2 inch drop and you'll be stylen!

with a 40/18 you may get a bit of rubbing, if you go with a 35/18 then Im confident if you have a goldline esque drop you will not rub...

i want to keep the 40's because it will look sick if i can get it not to rub because it will fill the whole wheelwell and it would look awsome. i think i will have to gut the wheelwell's and i think i should be o.k., if not i can always put the springs on my other xb. 8)
