Don't donk it up...19s are good depending on the wheel design, 20s are perfect, 22s are just too big to look good. Even if could lower your suspension, you still end up higher than stock height with 22s...makes me want to vomit. Not to mention the braking deficiency.

Unless you want to cut the inner fenders and lay it out...but that's a different story. Anyone can bolt a set of wheels on. I guess that's just the minitrucker in me. Do it right or don't do it at all.

seriously, if you are getting 22's you should plan on upgrading your brakes.

You've got more ground clearance than a Tacoma. You could get a nose bleed riding in that thing ;)

Bag it.

BALLIN!!!!!

I can't say that I could ever do this, but I have to admit I am liking it. I really like the chrome 5 spoke style it looks killer.

IMO the only reason I don't like them is the fact that they are so big you can practically see right through them to the under side of the car. And they make your rotors/calipers look like they belong on a go-cart!

Best of luck with them man...you know you will always be getting the looks!

I've only seen one new xB come through our dealership with the TRD brakes.

I didn't look too close at the rear, but the rotors looked stock-sized but drilled. The front brakes were huge though...13 or 14" rotors with at least a 4 piston caliper.
