setup

i'm running 4mm spacers on 38mm offset rims. to ride this low you will have to lower the torsion bar. modify the torsion bar pins or the torsion bar will ride too close to the chassis and everytime you hit a bump. it will make a loud clanking noise and will also damage it.

up to you what size rim. i like the JDM looks so i went small 15 or 16s. or you like the CALI look. than go big. 17-20s or sumtin

also want to extend my studs. know where i can get sum?

And yes, the tires are undersized. About 1" less diameter. That in it's self will drop the xB an extra 1/2".

On a static drop at that height with any bigger tires, it'll rub like mad on the front. I'd leave it the way it is, except add some bigger spacers to the back...

Look into H&R 25 MM spacers....Also One Ton Garage Hub Shims. They both can be installed without longer studs.

i'd def get correct sized tires , fills in the wheel gap a lot . and if raising the car .5 or .25 is what has to be done so be it.
