Rims for the our xB2???
Ok me and the wifey picked our rims out for the Gen2 xB...Are there any suggestions on what type of lowering springs we can use. Would a 2 inch drop work? The rims are 20".

Velocity makes these in 20x7.5 with offsets of +30, +35, or +38.
If you get them with +38 offset, and run 215/30 tires (a rare size), then you can probably do a 2" drop w/o rubbing. If you go with 225/30 tires (much larger selection and less expensive than 215/30), you might need to have the fenders rolled to keep from rubbing up front.
BTW, Victoria Tire & Wheel sells these wheels for $27 less (each) than WheelsNext.

Neither company lists the offset, so you need to make sure what it is before ordering.
