Default XA on stock wheels!

XA's sold should have 17's+ the stock wheels make it look sick, if u have an XA please upgrade ur wheels and you'll really notice the difference it's just not happening with the stocker wheel's - XB's can get away with it TC's are good but XA

wow.... im sure if they could step up they might. some people cant afford to modify the hell outta their vehicle. some can barely afford payments, but since you ask them to change them up, they should right away. sorry bud but this is stupid. how is another stock xA making yours look worse? if anything it makes it look better to show what you've done (wheels and graphics and whatever else you have). i think all xAs should be lowered, but hell people dont go around following my every whim. this may be the stupid thread every created, and i may be just as stupid for contributing to it, but oh well. why do you want them all to be the same? i thought the point to modifying was being unique. i think Shelbys (clear bra..) wheels kick the hell out of anyones 17s. 15s can look good. 17s arent necessary. hotbox was rolling on steelies for awhile and his car was still really hot. theres nothing wrong with 15" hubcaps or stealies on xBs or xAs. im done ranting. i hate this thread

a little extreme, but sexy is right.... its all about your own tastes and flavas..... if people want to roll on stock then let them, who cares. if people want to buy rims, then let them, who cares. worry about your own rides and just appreciate others, they arent doing things to spite you, they are only doing things to make themselves feel good about their own rides. amen.

My xA is on stock sized, but aftermarket wheels. And I get lots of props for them...

I might drop the xA, but otherwise, I am happy with what I got.

The Egg is all about being what you want. Some want their Egg scrambled. Some want it Fried. Some, Sunny Side Up. Some, Hard Boiled.

Some, just want it on a muffin, with cheese.

Now, I'm all hungry.

Ha! Currently I'm on stocker, but with xB hubcaps, where does that put me in your book? Connsidering the rear tires for my Lightning are almost as wide as our xA and the Lightning needs new tires ($1200 for 4 mounted, tires only) I think the wheels for the xa will have to wait, as long as that's ok for you.

another note if your purely looking for something to drees up the car and not much money Checker sells caps for the 15in that are cover some of the side wheel and simulate a 17 wheel with lower profile tire while still remaining stock they run 50 for the set of four i think just another option ....oh they have inserts bhind them so they dont have the normal look of covers showing the steelies behind too look pretty sweet imo for some caps
