I've been reading the posts for the last month but didn't want to contribute until I was actually one of the crowd. I can now say that I am a proud XB owner. I took delivery today at 1:00 this afternoon. I think that I have one of the few that are in Florida at this time and probably the only xb with 20's on it. Put them on this afternoon. Tomorrow I am going to lower it 2 inches and then to the paint shop for some craaazy graphics!

Most people set up an Imagestation account and upload them onto there, then all you have to do is link the image...does that help?

I will have pictures tomorrow. Actually a freind of mine also bought an XB today and he is putting a different 20" wheel tomorrow. I will have pictures of both. The real trick will come when I drop it 2"s. Tell me more about this Imagestation account. Bob

The 20's are 4 lug After all the XB is 4 on 100mm.

There was a small amount of adjustment needed. But it child's play at best.

Firstly, I am of the impression the smaller so goes cheaper. For example 16"s are less expensive that 17"s, Right or Wrong? I thought that 19"s are cheaper than 20"s.
I understand that brand will decide price point. But I personally I don't know of any 22"s that are cheaper than 20"s.

showpaojoe
01-29-2004, 02:49 AM
19s are just a rare tire size which mmakes the overall price more expensive. and of course, brand plays a bog role but i know that i can get 20s for less than 19s even tho they might be a cheap brand, however; it is mounting them on a scion that I am having trouble with.

what are these simple adjustments? that is my only question

Those are brand TIS 20" wheels model 03.
They are proto type 20 X7.5 with a release date of mid to late
Fed 2004. The tires are 225/30R20 BFG also proto type with no released date announced. If I knew how to post a picture I could show you a great on of the same XB.

It would be nice to see the pictures but it would be even better to know what type of adjustments are needed.

I'm getting the Arelli's XXX 20 X 8 and I would like to know what type of adjustments I'm going to have to do.

Chad, you need a 7.5" wheel to start with and no larger than 225/35r20 skin. If you need help with that combo let me know as I have available 3 different styles of rims that I have personally test fitted to the XB with that tire. The 8" wheels are to large and create unnecessary complications with clearance on the sub frame and the fender edge. Hope that helps/

Its an OK photochop panel with a choptop but the panel gave it away, that would have an almost mirror finish so you would be able to make out what it was reflecting, instead of a nonreflecting surface.

The 2.9 MEG version has more clarity and does have a reflection on the building in the upper side panel.
