I'm currently have the 5Zigen 2.1" drop and I'm running the 5Zigen M05's (17x7 +25) with 205/40/17 tires. There's no rubbing at all. So anyone interested in a similar setupshould have no worries!

Peace,

Those are the rims that Van is selling. The front is dead-on flush with the fender. (Looks sweet at a 3/4 angle) The rear is slightly in the well, but I think a 5-10 millimeter spacer would do the trick. I haven't put any spacers on yet.

The Scions-both xA and xB-can take a lot more meat in the back, and the one downside to running low offset wheels that are so flush in the front is that, since the front is now straight flush with the wheelwell, you can see how much more room you have to go in the back! This is only an issue if you are running all four wheels of the same fitment, and can easily be solved with a 5mm spacer. To make it just as flush in the back as the front though, you'd need something closer to 9-11mm (there's just under a hair of 1/2" different in the rear it seems), but a 5mm is the safest maximum thickness spacer I'd recommend running on stock wheel studs. Here's a pic that demonstrates what I mean about the difference in the wheelwells:

Such a clean set-up mat, Thanks for bringing it to the shop so I could see it.
