I can see the pics, looks great! What are the details about your air install to get it that low on 20s, is it just a bolt on or did you have to customize/butcher some things? Any pics of those details? Thanks!

Of all the 20s I've seen on xBs, those are the nicest and compliment the TCM.
The tires look like rubber bands, but it's cool.

EVILDAVE - Yes, I am going to make it out to JDM this weekend.

The airbag system is from Air Lift. It is a bolt on set up. We did some minor cutting for the fronts, and the rears, we just removed the bump stops. This was done at my good buddy's shop, Tyre Treds in hayward. I love how the wheels came out. I think it looks great on the car.

Thanks for the compliments. Here are a couple more pics

That looks absolutely beautiful. Again, to reiterate what everyone's said. Those are awesome wheels. Very clean. Any pics with the bags inflated and the car up?

Squirrel - Definitely Southland. Got to show my home town! I live a walking distance from there!

The wheels are offset, which helps to tuck the wheels inside the wheel wells. I will get some more pics this weekend in Frisco, and post them.

Thanks again to everyone!

Looks good. I like.

Whats the specs on the wheels offsets and width?

One of my friends used to live right there also. His backyard was against the 880 south Winton offramp. I grew up in San Leandro.

Nice - parents are in San Leandro.

The wheels are 20 x 7.5 and 45MM offset.

I don't think he was tryin' to say that he was the first. Nor was SmartAss....there have been several xBs with air & dubs since late '03. No thread jacking intended.


Again, props NewXBinNorCal :clap:

hop Off....
i would love to see that!!!

lol!!

NewXBinNorCal
01-18-2006, 05:11 AM
Hop Off!! Oh no. We are actually trying to slow down the inflation of the bags. It is too quick. We already slowed down the deflation. Much smoother. I will get some pics the weekend of the car at ride height, and maxed out. Coming soon!!!

And yeah, no way was I trying to say that I was the first to do the 20's and airbagged. Thanks WagenMaster!!

thats what i was guessing but i did not know if anyone had found a smaller 20" tire somewhere that i had not .becuse im going to be ordering some of my bag stuff in the next week and am trying too plan for wheels

dredge38
04-10-2006, 05:57 PM
as of yet theres not a smaller tire out yet, and if there was i dont think i would ever want to run it, you really would be running on rubberbands then
