Default introducing myself

hey everyone! I've been lurking here for a little while and I totally forgot to just say hi and introduce myself. I'm Mike and I live in santa clarita ca. I've been a car nut forever and I've built a few really fast 4 bangers. I got the scion XA for commuting to work so I'm probably going to do my best to avoid any engine mods on her but I did get the eibach 2" springs and some 18 inch wheels (only because they were really cheap on ebay!!)

anyway, I'd love to help anyone out who wants to mod their car so ht me up!

see yaz
mike

i have to say, this car still rides like stock for th emost part. except it corners much better. the eibachs have a variab;e rate spring, so they are soft for about an inch of travel before they become stiff as hell. so if you hit a speed bump you'll feel it. but on the road and the freeway it's smooth! not all rough and bouncy like my stylus with $2000 koni adjustable coilovers .

Default nice rims

Hey Mike,
I had not considered black rims until I saw yours......verrry nice. I searched ebay but couldn't find the ones on your xa. Was it from an ebay store or an individual?
Thanks
Steve

i got them here. The ad said they have scratches, but I was unable to find anything besides these tiny scratches you need to be 3 inches away from them to see.
