Default baja xA

hey all. the direction that im trying to go with my xA is baja xA. i want the overhead lights, the huge roof rack, and the pushbars in the front of the car. eventually it will go as far as getting snorkels, winches, lift kits, and struts and shocks for off road suv's. but i havent been able to find the tires i really want for my xA. i was wondering if anyone knows a website that sells tires and rims like ones on a dune buggy vw beetle?

i think this is a great idea! i was considering it myself actually. I think the xA could be a decent fwd rally car.

First get yourself some light wheels like Konig Heliums or Falken Hanabis.
I believe Falken has some all terrainn tires you should look into it. try this link http://www.falkentire.com/rally_ad.htm give them a call.
As for a lift... I think you should be fine on the stock springs for a while cuz they give almost a 6" clearance as is. Good luck with it.
