Please post in the appropriate forum.

If you check the Wheel & Tire forum you can get lots of ideas from pictures of other xB's.

BTW, "SEARCH" is your friend.

Welcome ml198924, I didn't mean to sound so harsh.

Most of you who have seen my posts know that I generally do my best to help out with good info.

While you're looking at rims, this calculator / comparer will be a big help. Enjoy.

Keep in mind that the stock tires are 205/55x16" with +45 offset.

Living in Miami, you shouldn't have any problems with choosing a wheel cause isn't Miami the Capital of the Hi-Risers and Donks? Most of these cars have some really nice wheels...

It should be a Sticky in the 2nd-Gen Owners Lounge.
It could be titled "Tire & Wheel Links", so everybody could post up source links.

Can I get a little help on this from a moderator, or do I just
have to post it every time somebody asks about wheels & tires?

'CAUSE I WILL!

Random thought...

Post it up whenever you feel like it. Say someone make s a thread saying, "I hate my premium h/u, what should I do?" Pop in and say, "2008 xB wheels are 16x6.5 with 45mm offset. Hope this helps!!"

Sorry, I think I have a disorder.

I'll make sure and give them the calculator/comparer link also.

The stock steel wheel & tire specs are no fun w/o the link.

You don't have a disorder, just brain freeze from all the winter snow.
