PDX,

Do you have any detailed pictures of your setup now? I'll be getting some 18x8 40 offset fairly soon. And I have NF's as well that will be going on.

If possible I would really appreciate a few pictures to see how it looks all together.

thanks
good luck with your new setup.

You can see several pics in my intro thread. As you page through the thread, you can see my car at various stages of modification.

The photos on the first page show the 18x8 +40 Koseis with the stock springs. The photos on the second page show it after dropping it on the NF210s. The photos on the 3rd page show it with the addition of the Five Axis lip kit.

Won't work... those wheels will poke out past the front fenders about 2.25", and poke out about 1.75" in the rear.

Marshall, I know you're incredible with the lowered VIP wheel set-up, but don't egg him on; the only way to make 17x9 with -12 offset work on the xB2 is with a widebody kit, and that still might lead to bearing wear problems if it's a daily driver. If your friend is running 8.5 front & 9.5 rear, and totally flush, his offsets have to be in the +25 to +35 range.
