i don't know anything about rims or offsets or wheels or nothing. But i would take it to a tire shop to do it all.

it all depends on the offset. if you got the rims from the dealer, it should fit no problem. My friends who have 18 have no problems, and they bought theirs from the dealer.

any rim with a width less than 8 inches and an offset between 30 and 42 will work fine.

get 215/35 tires and you could lower your xB as much as 3.75 inches without incident.

BS1st gen xB's will always rule here on SL.

The answer is they should fit no problem if the rims are 7 or 7.5 inches wide and offset is 39-42 mm. Also the 215/35/18 is the correct size tire as hotbox stated.
