Default I'm a proud new HOT LAVA xB !!!

Hi guys! Today I go to the scion dealership in Houston.
I test drive it, I like it, and I dont know why suddenly I trade my Lexus IS300 for this HOT LAVA xB !!!!!!
I'm amazed with this car, even the stock stereo is AWESOME !!!!
The power is also good for only 105hp =) luvin it.
I'm 6" tall, and this car still have that much space for me to move around.

I wanna get either 17" / 18" without lowering the car. What kind of tires size do I need?
And what is the bolt pattern? I mean 4x 100 or maybe 4x 114.5 ?
Thanks a lot guys

IS300 seat is killing my back cause the lumbar support is too low for me (6" tall), and my IS300 is making this pop noise.
No one can fix it.
I tried the bushing, the sway bar bolt, tyrock, lower ball joint, and none of em solve the problem.
The sound is freakin annoying, and it's a common problem for the IS300.
You can find a lot of people complaining about this sound on the IS300.net

I hope you dont have the same problem as mine on yours.
