I am a manager at Final Stage Auto, so of course I just ordered them for myself (unfortunately paying every penny as well). Should be sponsoring this boad within the next week, so you should see our banner ad flying soon.

Ya i hear you on that, i plan on keeping it clean looking, i've only had it for a week now, so hopefully i can get some more done to it in the near future. I'm thinking of stick the veilside lip kit on it, or the kenstyle, not to sure which one I will go with, but mainly im waiting to find out when the veilside will be released for the US bumper.

Very nice man! I'm gonna throw some gold WORK 18's on mine. The gold wheels look really good with the blue onyx paint.

JDMxB
03-31-2004, 09:45 PM
Haha...I love it, Kenstyle will be coming soon to my box (hopefully).

You know, now that I think about it, it was about a week after I got my thundercloud xB that i put my gunmetal GT-Ns on. Crazy.

I seriously think that the gt-ns are the best looking Volk wheel...their newer designs are just downright dissapointing to me.

pczoneonline has my set of volks now...so I should have something new to show u guys soon...haha.

It is black because on the blue ones where the sun hits the car it's really blue. But hey it is still a nice scion no matter what.

im lookin at gettin some gtp's for my shoebox to roll on. i thought i'd ball out and get a set of 18x9 blitz type 03's on my 3000gt vr4, but people don't give my blitz's the credit they deserve. this is the first board that i've been exposed to work wheels. it's either some works or the volks, im not down with the 1 piece cast heavy ___ wheels. i can pick up a 18x10 gtn with 2 fingers. lets try and keep our xb's light and clean!

Like everyone else says, nice ride. Definately love them gold rims, yet the rims itself. I was thinking of also getting GT-N's in gunmetal (or silver if they have it) for my car, just wasnt too sure if the color would match well or not. Got thunder cloud.

I think gunmetal would look good on the thunder cloud. I'm thinking of getting the silver for my Polar White xB.

thanks for all the compliments so far, glad everyone is liking the combination. Makes me want to finish the rest even faster.

as for the box ---- yes its black......:)

Personally i have also always liked the gt-n, as this is my second set, i had them on my below car that was featured back in july 2002 in super street, hopefully i can work my way back into the mags again someday :)

Nice wheels man I almost got them too but I got gt-c's instead. Now that I think about it I think I stuck my gold volks on the first week I got it too. I did my first show w/ the xb 5 days after I got it. I wish I got a different offest but it was a pain already finding gt-c's in gold.

They are 18's Mr. Squirrel.

Hows the ride coming along?

Specifically the tein + hotchkis combo???

they're 18s.. most rims with a lip usually look 1" smaller than their real size..

They ride like stock, maybe just a tad bit stiffer. I believe the drop is a 1.7" front/1.5" rear.

Do you have a stright profile view? I'd like to check the drop on 18's.

The xB is one of the few vehicles I'd rather see from the side over a three quarter view...

Looks really good man!

I'm trying to decide if 19's are worth the extra cost. I either can do 19's w/ no lowering or 18's and a drop you like you got.

Decisions, decisions.... :D

Volk Racing in japan offers GT-N's up to 20" in size!
imagine 19's on a xB!

im almost certain they will be only in 5 lug, so we just gotta get some wheel spacers/adapters that go from 4x100 to 5x100 or whatever

Actually they are only 17 & 18, no 19's or 20s in this wheel. The GT-C is brought in 17-20" now though, but nothing near what would fit on our boxes without major modifications.

hahah i can't wait to see some... i mean can't u get the same specs and size as the 19" axis everyone runs? nonetheless.. your gtns are pimp
