Ok, I decided to get a tC instead. It seems more like the car for me for the next 10 years.

Even tho dealerships won't have the car until June, I figured out the bolt pattern is gonna be 5x100(probably +40 ish) like the Matrix and Celicas and some other cars.

Stock rims and tires will be nice, 17x7's w/ z-rated 215/45 re92's. Nice meat for a $16k car. But what do you guys think would fit nicely under those fenders?

I'm thinking 18x8's w/ maybe 225/40's would fit pretty well.

i can help you here, cant tell how i know, but i do :D on the rear youll be able to go 19x9.5 with no clearance issues, and a 10.5 it you want to manipulate it. and the front is either a 19x8.5 or 9 i cant remember now, hope that helps

Cool, so the fat wheels will fit!

I noticed that more European cars like VW Golf/Jetta's have 5x100. At least, I noticed that some owners were looking for 5x100 18x8's and 18'8.5's +35 for a GTI. That sounds about nice for the tC and I'm guessing the Matrix(Celica?), too.

I recently saw a nice set of gold BBS's that come in those euro sizes. On top of that, I found out that cheepo knock-off brand Alt Wheels has fake BBS's in it's new wheel lineup! And in european sizes. That would be a nice set to look into.

Does anyone know if the Volk Racing SF-Challenge will fit on the xB? And what is the cheapest you've seen them for?
