Zenetti's are very nice wheels, but I'm not surprised that you rub; that tire & wheel combo is almost 2 full inches larger in overall diameter than stock.

Also, how's the acceleration? I don't know which wheel it was, but I saw a 20x8.5 Zenetti listed at 39.8 lbs for each wheel!

I'm guessing your gas mileage will tank also, but it looks really nice.

gas mileage is not too bad but its not as good either. As for fitment, i had made a post earlier about the studs not being long enough to hold the wheels, not even thinking about ET lugs which i used, the problem is the back spacing is huge(alot bigger than your nomal wheels) so the wheel sticks out more like +30/+32 offset, with smaller tires i can keep the wheels as my dailys, but if i dont switch soon i loose the tires i have now anyways.

So im either going to sell these and go with some volks i have laying around(18x7.5), that i dont like as much or sell both sets and wait till i find a set of Work Euroline SL's that ive been wanting since i got the car.

Also in talks with Garage Floor Customs here in Houston about a UAS air kit

its all coming togeather, right now im putting togeather a system and custom box that i have not seen yet in any xB, also includes lots of Suede and new lether


PS if anyone has a good deal on the tires i need that would be great
