22's will never fit on this vehicle. the front is technically impossible. the rears could fit but like i've said will look stupid.

and when i've seen xB's on 20's and 19's side by side the 1 inch makes a world of difference. i like minitrucks too but an xB is not a minitruck. and real minitrucks dont have 22's and when they do they look retarded. sorry bro. i do like the shaved doors tho. and that avalanche is the best looking avalanche i have ever seen.

Thats a great idea, I have mine molded in but I hadn't thought about just completely removing them.

Bruce, the only problem w/ tubbing the rear and adding a four link will be the relocation of the fuel tank and charcoal canister. I'd like to see pics when you are finished. I never had a mini-truck but was always around them.

im def with you on the mini tuckin part, well mini vannin as i would say, i had an astro for 3 years, had dreams of baggin it, i finally had the money to get it done, i was gonna go to the shop daily to help the guy so it would be cheaper and i would have the knowledge of my setup, then she died..and i got an xB..so go for it man, you got your dreams of a bagged B on 22s, do it, dont let all these people who dont "like it" shoot you down..just my 2 cents

Are you kidding me? I think those ^^ rides are sweet...If he can do it, then that'll be major bragging rights for the work...22" rims are huge, but wtf, if he makes it fit then that's cool...doesn't Busta Rhymes have a hummer on 32" rims or something....rediculous, but one of a kind...

I plan on getting a salvaged title xB and bodydropping it within the next year or so... because you know that only Real Pimps Drag Unibody

I am also a minitrucker at heart, i have bagged and bodydropped countless trucks from dimes to hardbodys so a box should be fun... here is my last project before i had to let her go, i miss her a lot
