What's up Dizzle?! haha... love the screen name man. Sometimes my friends call me that too. Anyways, love your old xb1, but what are you plans for the XB2? What color did you get? There's a few XB2s on here that have certainly elevated the playing field so check them out... Welcome.

I'm sure our ambassador, CIONIDE, will be soon to greet you as well. haha.

Welcome to the xB2 family, let the modding begin!

When you're ready for tire & wheel fitment help, I'm your man.

Thanks bro, I have the classic silver and have soo many plans i cant even put them together right now. But my biggest thing getting off the steelies and hubs, but thats taking a toll on my brain cant decide 18s for the ride confort bc I hated it on xb1, 19s or 20s for the look. but other than that i nearly gutted my xb1 for my pioneer avic-d3 navi, alpine type R 12"sub and alpine amp so im good there for now

IMO, looks has way more to do with offset and stance versus rim diameter. If your offset and stance looks good, you can make any rim look good. Check out threads from Neek, because he is living testament to this. Only problem is, "It sucks to roll hard." He is also living testament to this...

My XB also shares the role as the family car and commuter, so it's remarkable to me that my wife even puts up with my antics fixing up the car. That being said, I've tried DF210s on 16s (good), DF210s on 17s (okay), DF210s on 18s (so so), NF210s on 18s (okay/so so), NF210s on 16s (great), and finally NF210s on the front and Tein H Techs in the rear. Argh... should of just got coilovers in the beginning... LOL.

Keep in mind that tire & wheel fitment is also dependent on your drop.
Have you made any decisions regarding mild drop springs, heavy drop springs, coilovers, or air bags?

I was looking of springs for now dreaming of air bags but out of my budget. I was looking at some tein but not sure what direction to go and i saw a guy on here with the X Runner oem wheels painted black. Looks pretty nice but i would go more for a gunmetal color for a better look. Seem like leaning more towards 18s.

Oh do I!!!

I Love the power I would say that the worst thing about the xB1 was 105hp, Im the type of guy that was always running last minute and now im early. I was always red lining everytime just to keep up with the homies in their accord, prelude, and maxima and they werent even driving fast. But i must say gas drains a lot quicker, but i was told the motor has to break in, not sure if its tru.

creamyxb2 · 03-11-2010, 01:11 AM

i love second gens. so much room and power.

strtrcril87 · 03-14-2010, 04:29 AM

2nd gen is still slowwww, but it's better than a 1st gen.

GOZ01 · 03-14-2010, 05:45 AM

Welcome to the 2nd Gen fam.

TrevorS · 03-14-2010, 06:09 AM

I'm new to Scion with a 2008 xB, Eibach Prokit springs, and TRD rear sway bar -- I find it a very resilient vehicle. Kinda quick too when I want it to be (added a few other minor mods), but mostly I take my time

. Ultimately, the xB1 has the MPG advantage, but there's definitely something to be said for the xB2

Just picked up a RS 7 XB Saturday. Son was in from collage with my RS 2 XB. Quite a contrast in colors. Now just have to save up for some wheels and a few other goodies.

If you were Los Angeles Laker fans, this pairing would make plenty of sense.

A lot better in my opinion. At least it doesnt take 5 min. to get to 80 mph on I-95, the speed people cruize at down here. The same night I drove it home, a guy in a nissan murano test me and i was neck and neck the whole way

Welcome to the 2nd gen! Hope you enjoy your car as much as I have.

So, you are from down here eh? I'm in Hialeah and just started modding mines.

What you got in plan for the near future? Are you going to Scion exposed?
