What's the purpose of lowering an xB2?
For the most part, it's not very functional. Some people like to build "sportboxes" whereas I'm thinking of building a "monsterbox"
I like to go camping and sometimes our activities take us off road, though not extremely harsh dirt roads, but it's enough to make me want more clearance and grip.

This is my car on max donk with air suspension, it was hella high, but it is completely non-functional.
I played with both: coilovers and air suspension, and both combined as well, but I was not satisfied with any of it.

Haha, I'll do some light dirt trail driving once I raise it to stock height for now. But I won't be able to do crazier stuff until I get lift springs, off road tires, and maybe a TRD LSD.
I have a Thule rack system and MOAB roof basket in the works. Maybe a custom brush guard too. Freakin' off road junkie.

Nah, I'm too attached to this car. Plus I just paid it off. Although I wouldn't mind a Jeep Sahara at all. My brother is gonna buy a jeep.
But anyways, I bought some Pro Comp center caps from Quadratec and they matched the wrong item number to the description. I called them up and I told them that when I checked out, the confirmation said chrome caps instead of flat black, so they just ordered me some black ones and said I could keep the chrome ones when they come!
Anyways, my rims are going to be completely blacked out. Black wheels, black caps, black lug nuts, black tpms valve stem caps. I hope to avoid rice as much as possible and give my box that off road bro-truck look. (I just got a license plate that says BRO BOX
)
